new preprint "Domain Adaptation-Enhanced Searchlight: Enabling brain decoding from visual perception to mental imagery" with Roberto Santana @nadine_dijkstra megan peters 🧠

are you going to CogCompNeuro? Check out Hojjat Azimi 's poster! we're super excited to use diffusion models trained with RL to understand DecNef! Diffusion models and reinforcement learning: Novel pathways to modeling decoded fMRI neurofeedback 2024.ccneuro.org/poster/?id=255

For folks who aren't able to attend in-person, we are excited to be able to stream all talks this year on our youtube channel: youtube.com/@cogcompneuro Papers can be found here: 2024.ccneuro.org/poster-session… Please share!

New preprint on bistable perception, led by @FritschMerve: In people with a stroke in the inferior frontal cortex, conscious experience is slower to update in response to conflicting sensory signals biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. This suggests that IFC gates access to consciousness!

What is the nature of sensory prediction error signals in the neocortex? Our research published in nature reveals that these error signals are amplified responses to unexpected inputs, mediated by a cooperative thalamocortical circuit mechanism! 1/4 nature.com/articles/s4158…

New paper out this week. Double-blind clinical trial of decoded neurofeedback for specific phobia. Coolest thing I've taken part in now in print. Was a privilege working on this with hakwan lau 🇺🇦 @hakwan.bsky.social, Mitsuo Kawato, Anxiety and Depression Research Center at UCLA & Vincent Taschereau-Dumouchel onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pc…

"A concentration of visual cortex-like neurons in prefrontal cortex" nice paper Rose & Ponce nature.com/articles/s4146…

Accounts of learning typically focus on learning from external observations. But sometimes we learn without external input - we "learn by thinking". In this review, out today in TiCS, I consider learning by thinking across natural and artificial minds...

This paper began as a chance encounter with David Carmel in 2017 and now paves the way for a whole new psychophysics - all thanks to the heroic work of Renzo Lanfranco 🙏👍😃

The #NobelPrizeinPhysics2024 for Hopfield & Hinton rewards plagiarism and incorrect attribution in computer science. It's mostly about Amari's "Hopfield network" and the "Boltzmann Machine." 1. The Lenz-Ising recurrent architecture with neuron-like elements was published in

New preprint out🚨 with Samson Chota Luzi Xu S van der Stigchel Surya Gayet, titled “The priority state of items in visual working memory determines their influence on early visual processing” osf.io/preprints/osf/…
