Dear #neuroeconomics folks, if you're interested in whether divisive normalization influences choice, you should check this back-and-forth between Ryan Webb, Kenway Louie and us. Make up your own mind, but in general I'd say the debate is very constructive nature.com/articles/s4156…

New work in Nature Human Behaviour with Ryan Webb looking at how to test for normalization effects in choice behavior, interesting and fruitful continuing discussion with Sebastian Gluth - check it out! nature.com/articles/s4156…

Reward foraging task and model-based analysis reveal how fruit flies learn value of available options “These findings establish the fruit fly as a model organism to explore the genetic and circuit basis of reward foraging decisions.” journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Think you know dopamine? Reward prediction error, right? Our natural way to learn mediocre chess, yeah? Nahhh, you don't know dopamine. Ali Mohebi Ali Mohebi and Ben Engelhard share insights and speculations about DA's ever expanding talents. braininspired.co/podcast/112/

New paper out, thanks to the hardworking and super creative Bo Shen! Looks at how different circuit motifs might integrate flexible representations/regimes. Flexible control of representational dynamics in a disinhibition-based model of decision making biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to share our recent work on a novel decision circuit model. Hope you will find the flexibility and biological plausibility of this model interesting!

Our uncertainty paper is finally published online! Uncertainty estimation often happens at the same time of decision making. When we feel uncertain, we might abandon the current decision-making process and choose to do something different. 1/n.

Finally out in (e)print! Culmination of lots of hard work from Bo Shen (Bo Shen) at Neuroscience at NYU Langone Health NYU Science NYU Center for Neural Science doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… eLife - the journal

Our new paper's out! What’s the shape of a guilty mind? We do mouse-tracking and read out the dynamics of the social mind from hand movements: The competition dynamics of approach and avoidance motivations following interpersonal transgression | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Thank you! As a loyal listener, I am proud to be a speaker of this podcast. For some context, the studies I talked about can be found here: Avoiding eye contact: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Brain signature of guilt: academic.oup.com/cercor/article… Approach-avoidance: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

While it’s *deeply* unfashionable to be publishing in eLife - the journal right now - do humour us for advertising a study that was several years in the making (submitted way back when it was still possible for reviewers to reject us!). We’re rather proud of it.🧵👇🧵doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

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…

Behavioral and decision scientists, by definition, study behavior and decision, but rarely define these concepts. A Comment by Krpan et al. calls for precise definitions of these concepts. Barbara Fasolo nature.com/articles/s4156…

Highly recommend! This year, in France.
