Abstract: A method for analyzing neuropharmacology of a drug, including the steps of providing a set of brain activity maps representing changes of a brain activity of a living species under an influence of a plurality of known drugs each consisting of a known chemical structure; clustering the set of brain activity maps to form a plurality of functional classifiers; and classifying a brain activity map associated with a chemical compound using the functional classifiers so as to predict a neuropharmacology of the chemical compound.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing first sets of tokens associated with a desired task and one or more modalities associated with a context of the desired task, determining a second set of tokens for each of the one or more modalities using a classifier network associated with the modality, generating a number of embedding vectors by mapping the first sets of tokens and the second set of tokens associated with each of the one or more modalities to an embedding space, and producing a sequence of words addressing the desired task by processing the number of embedding vectors with an encoder-decoder network.

Abstract: A wireless optogenetic device in proximity to a neural cell of a subject includes a body configured to hold light transducing materials arranged to up-convert electromagnetic radiation in infrared or near-infrared spectrum into light in the visible spectrum to affect activity of the neural cell. The body allows electromagnetic radiation in infrared or near-infrared to reach the light transducing materials. A radiation system includes a radiation probe for irradiating a wireless optogenetic device with electromagnetic radiation in infrared or near-infrared spectrum from a radiation source. The system further includes a movement mechanism for moving the radiation probe, a detector for detecting a location of the wireless optogenetic device, and a controller for controlling the movement mechanism based on the detected location of the wireless optogenetic device such that the radiation probe is arranged to irradiate the wireless optogenetic device at the detected location with the electromagnetic radiation.
