Struggling with paths in #python? So was I! I wrote a tool that will locate your roooot directory based in a hidden file. This is VERY useful for writing #reproducible Python code that works across platforms! #openscience #reproducibility #groo github.com/ozika/groo

Blake Richards I agree with this, but they should have cited the Temporal Context Model (Howard & Kahana, 2002, and much following work). This is one of their key ideas, contrasting with the older idea of time-based drift due to Estes (1955).

Always a great time with these people! Was delighted to talk on XAI approaches to models of human cognition in Lille.

Massive news: eLife to abolish accept/reject decisions: papers will just be “peer reviewed”. Others can argue about this, but lots of interesting consequences. 1/9 elifesciences.org/articles/83889

New paper eLife - the journal with co-first author Matthias Nau! Hippocampal activity reflects timing behavior & the updating of task-specific yet generalizable sensorimotor representations in real time doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… 🧵 Joint-author thread below! w/ R.Kaplan DoellerLab Virginie van Wassenhove

New preprint out with DoellerLab and Roberto Bottini! "Mental search of concepts is supported by egocentric vector representations and restructured grid maps" biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I’m so excited to finally see THINGS-data released! Working on this fMRI dataset was an awesome challenge for me and motivated me to learn a ton. So many thanks to Martin Hebart , Chris Baker , @lina_teichmann and everyone involved for bringing me on board! 1/n

Landmark-based spatial navigation across the human lifespan doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… freshly accepted for publication!! Here we suggest there’s no such thing as an « allocentric deficit » in aging. Older adults and 10yo children rather struggle at using landmarks for navigation…

Nice new work form Somatosensory Lab MPI für Kognitions- & Neurowissenschaften with @LiobaEnk, Carina Forster, Esra Al & Arno Villringer.

The LPFC contributes to our impressive ability to rapidly implement instructed task rules. Alexander Baumann, me and Hannes Ruge found differences in LPFC connectivity profiles as a function of instructional load. Have a look at: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our new preprint is live: We show that the entorhinal cortex uses a grid-like representation to encode an abstract value space during prospective decision making - work together with Mona Garvert @jacobbellmund Nico Schuck DoellerLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to see this out - our new work on egocentric and allocentric neural representations in a conceptual task. Led by Simone Viganò, together with DoellerLab and Roberto Bottini

Our paper on an entorhinal grid-like representation of an abstract value space with Mona Garvert @jacobbellmund Nico Schuck DoellerLab is now out in Nature Communications! nature.com/articles/s4146…

New paper out with Rena Bayramova, DoellerLab, and Roberto Bottini on the link between spontaneous eye movements and the representational geometries of conceptual spaces during verbal fluency tasks (VFT) doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

One of my PhD projects is online! We show that category prototypes correspond to interpolated states in a cognitive map that guide cortical pattern completion during category-based decisions. w/ Mirko Thalmann, Helmholtz Institute for Human-Centered AI, DoellerLab, Stephanie Theves @stephanie-theves.bsky.social biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our preprint is online!  We show how the hippocampal-entorhinal cognitive maps could solve the general problem of representing and relating multiple alternative action plans.  Work together with Simone Viganò Daniel Reznik Patrick Haggard DoellerLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Uh oh it's 🚨pre-print time🚨 Delighted to share new work with the wonderful @BernhardSpitzer. We show that asymmetrically biased learning policies allow humans to adapt to different changes in relational structure more or less effectively. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Hugely excited that this work with Martin Hebart and Chris Baker is now out in Nature Human Behaviour !!! By moving from a category-focused to a behaviour-focused model, we identified behaviourally relevant object information throughout visual cortex. nature.com/articles/s4156…
