particular for IPython we made a ton of progress.
- February 2011
- During the I spoke during the 2011 AAAS annual meeting at a symposium
titled The Digitization of Science: Reproducibility and Interdisciplinary
Knowledge Transfer organized by
Columbia’s Victoria Stodden. I have put up a short `blog post`_ about the
event as well as my slides and an extended abstract.
- February 2011
- I’m thrilled to have been invited to present the keynote at this year’s
EuroScipy conference. I haven’t had a chance yet to attend the European
version of the SciPy conferences, so I’m very much looking forward to it.

- My recent trip to Scipy India 2010 was a very interesting experience; I’m
really impressed by the Indian government’s vision with their FOSSEE.in
project. Here are the slides for my invited talk and some general

- Our paper Double dissociation of two cognitive control networks in patients
with focal brain lesions is out in PNAS (PDF version).
- January 2010
- I’m very excited to visit Colombia for a month, to teach an intensive course
on scientific computing using Python and a practical, modern and hopefully
useful approach. I’ve created a section on Teaching with these
materials, including a detailed page on the planned course.
- December 2009
- Some notes on how to configure InDefero on a
shared hosting account to host your own Git repositories for private

- I’ve added a section with the tools used to build this
site, which several people have inquired about.
- November 2009, a discussion with Guido van Rossum
- At our informal Berkeley Py4Science seminar, the November 4
session was a very interesting discussion with Guido van Rossum, the creator
of the Python language. Read more...
- September 2009, PyDy
- At our meeting series, Luke Peterson from UC Davis gave a very interesting
talk on PyDy, a project under the SymPy umbrella to symbolically describe
mechanical systems and derive their equations of motion. (video link).
- September 2009, decorators
- Some notes about decorators for controlling execution
from a September 2009 talk at the Berkeley Py4Science group.
