If you know me, you can follow me here (I mean right here) or here.
If you don't know me what are you doing here?! Go enjoy your life, there are lots of cool people out there, like here or here.
If you want to see my linkedin profile it's here.
And I am of course on FaceBook.
And with all the Buzz around Google Buzz I should say I have a Google Profile too, although I don't like Google to get into every cool thing that emerges in the world, specially they don't need to add everything into GMail! Everyday they are getting more and more like Microsoft!
By the way recently I have been TOO busy with life! I am getting better at it!
Just for the record I am kind of a Brain Scientist! Kind of, not the kind that you read about them in the books when you were younger, but one who is still trying to become one! Actually my life revolves around training monkeys to do very simple video games and then record the neural activity of their visual brains while they are playing the game!
If you are a scientist, I should say I am currently a research fellow at the National Eye Institute at the NIH.
I have been doing what I do here and here and now here
I married a fantastic girl some years ago, we stopped counting the years when it was just a few years, not that we don't enjoy our life, but because it sounds a bit like older than us when we say we have been married for 8 years now :)
I am also working on this open source project called "Open Brain". You can find it at github. It is currently for my own use. But my intention is to make it as flexible as possible for everyone to use. And by everyone I mean everyone who works with spike trains and neuronal data and .... As I am a visual learner I need to visualize things to understand them better and this is a theme in Open Brain as well. We'll see!
By the way as Open Brain is on github you are welcome to fork! and maybe we merge latter on or go our own ways! Actually currently I am mostly focused on what I need in my current experiments but eventually it would grow.
No! this is not a software (You wish?!). This is actually what's on MY mind.
I am fascinated by science (and by science I mean knowledge in general not pure "science") specifically human mind and brain is what I have been busy studying for most of my adult life! (I don't remember when I became and adult though)
Anyway, this story is not finished...
For now, you may want to have a look at my 140 character essays on Brain science here #nq stands for Neuroscience question.
I have started to post some of my louder thoughts to my blog.
I am a TED translator. I translate into Farsi. You can find my TED translations here. You can find my TED profile here.
I got the chance to get to TEDActive 2010 (see some photos here). And did almost live twitting there, @alimoeeny. You can also find a list of TED talks that I like here
I've been reading:
I can't tell you all of them!
Here are some that are less embarrassing or are embarrassing but are kind of useful for others to see and not to try!
Nothing down here! What are you looking for? send me an email. My address is alimoeeny@ I am sure you can guess which one I use (Gmail if you should know!)
