Dear colleagues, please circulate these ads for two fully funded PhD positions in my new group. Topics can cover grid cells, retrosplenial cortex, head direction, subiculum and boundary coding + cog maps generally. cbs.mpg.de/stellenmarkt/s…

Great work by Irina Barnaveli on the link between the hippocampal-entorhinal system and motor regions for representing and relating alternative action plans

We’re beyond delighted to announce the launch of a new biweekly lecture series: Foundations of Cognitive Science, led by Dr. Fiora Salis, a philosopher based at the University of York (UK) and guest scientist in our department. 📅 6 Nov 13:30 CET 📍MPI CBS, Leipzig

New preprint by Yangwen et al. Among other things, we provide evidence that mental time traveling relies on complementary allocentric and egocentric representations of time, in the hippocampus and parietal cortex, respectively. Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our new preprint on the effect of low-dimensional task similarities on representation learning in brains and neural networks! Work collaboration with DoellerLab, Stefano Fusi, Jeff Johnston, Simone Viganò , Burkhard Maess @[email protected] and Max Hinrichs. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Come to our blitz talk and poster C159 if interested! Work in collaboration with giulianogiari DoellerLab Ospedale Niguarda Roberto Bottini

Our paper in Nature Communications! Using VR and fMRI, we show how cognitive maps in the hippocampal system could solve the general problem of representing and relating multiple alternative action plans.  doi.org/10.1038/s41467… With DoellerLab, Patrick Haggard, Simone Viganò, Daniel Reznik
