Qwen3-0.6B

"stem" in stem cell phrases

A neuron in layer 6 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are very consistent: they mostly peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the word "stem" in phrases like "cancer stem cells" or "neural stem cells". It switches off on the word "urinate" and its forms. Turning it up made the model drift into unrelated topics, so the steering doesn't show the same idea.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: medium. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

Fires most on

The text windows where this neuron's activation was highest. Amber marks positive activation; the outlined token is the peak. Hover a token for its strength.
