The Case for This Conversation
Assistant Professor @Stanford Statistics and @StanfordBrain. Computational Neuroscience, Machine Learning, Bayesian Statistics. Tweets are my own.
Dive into the cutting-edge worlds of technology and science with Dwarkesh Patel's meticulously researched interviews that bring together brilliant minds to unpack revolutionary ideas in AI, biotech, and beyond. Each episode delivers profound, thought-provoking conversations that challenge conventional wisdom and illuminate the paths shaping humanity's future.
Scott Linderman matters right now because he is co-leading Stanford’s new Center for Neural Data Science, launched on December 12, 2025, to bridge cutting edge neuroscience with data science and accelerate brain decoding. The center was created in response to an urgent bottleneck, labs can now record from thousands of neurons and run faster fMRI, but need new analysis methods to turn those torrents into insight.
Linderman’s group builds exactly those tools, from state space models to other statistical approaches for high dimensional neural data, making his 2026 perspective essential for anyone betting on NeuroAI. He is already shaping the field’s agenda, from the Center’s inaugural October 22, 2025 symposium to his roles across Wu Tsai Neuro, Stanford Data Science, and the Stanford AI Lab.
He has not appeared on the Dwarkesh Podcast before, and bringing him on a show that is steering today’s AI discourse would surface the playbook for the next wave of brain inspired AI. Support this nomination today.
