Finally out! This paper took approximately 10 years. Work by basvanopheusden with Ionatan Kuperwajs, Zahy Bnaya, Gianni Galbiati, and Yunqi Li. nature.com/articles/s4158… Happy to answer questions. Brief history of the project on cns.nyu.edu/malab/publicat…

Are you watching closely as Marcel Binz is transforming a LLaMA into a human? 🪄 It has been debated if #llms can be used as cognitive models and what insights could be gained from that. We not only show that it is possible but also that LLMs predict behavior for unseen tasks.

Now out in JEP:LMC! It's easier for humans and NN models to learn a new category if it has clusters of covarying features (i.e. modular feature structure). This suggests that feature-based structure may be encoded into new category reps. w/ Dr. Anna Schapiro psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/2023-…

Neural population analyses often focus on task-relevant stimulus representations. But what about task-irrelevant stimuli? Should they simply always be ignored? What if they become relevant later? We study this question in optimized RNNs and PFC recordings: tinyurl.com/45twg35

🚨🚨🚨 1/2 Very happy to share that this work linking trait anxiety to inference of latent states in aversive environments has now been published in Nature Communications ☺️ with Katja Wiech Michael Browning Andrea Reinecke and Nico Schuck 🧾 nature.com/articles/s4146…

The new version of our work on individual differences is out! Honored to share this work w/ Aldo Battista Fabio Stefanini Satoshi Tsujimoto aldo genovesio and Stefano Fusi ! What’s new?👇🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#Postdoc Job Alert🚨🧑‍🎓 We have reopened the search for a postdoc focused on learning, memory & decision making, using fMRI and/or modelling. Join our lab in beautiful Hamburg Universität Hamburg! Lab: schucklab.gitlab.io Job Ad: stellen.uni-hamburg.de/jobposting/620…

In our format, "This is us" colleagues answer questions about their work at our Institute. Let's continue with Anika Löwe Anika Löwe from our Max Planck Research Group NeuroCode #WomenInScience #MaxPlanckandMe ➡️ mpib-berlin.mpg.de/meldungen/das-…

In a world full of noise, how do we decide what's important? Our research reveals that humans leverage a key insight: relevant signals change slowly, but noise fluctuates rapidly. Excited to share the first project of my PhD! 1/ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

1/ Today in Science, we train a neural net from scratch through the eyes and ears of one child. The model learns to map words to visual referents, showing how grounded language learning from just one child's perspective is possible with today's AI tools. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

If you're at #PuG2024 and you're curious whether sleep actually inspires insight (or you just like to take naps), come by for a chat at my poster P.256 today. Work with Marit Petzka and Nico Schuck

✨ New (updated) preprint! ✨ We find that "Replay in human visual cortex is linked to the formation of successor representations and independent of consciousness"! 🧠 Fabulous team work with Lena Krippner, Dr. Christoph Koch & Nico Schuck! 🌟 🧵 👇 [1/5] biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Super excited to give a talk on this project at CogCompNeuro #CCN2024 on Friday morning. Come chat all things sleep, regularisation and insight at my poster C165 afterwards :)
