Excited that the preprint for the work from my first two years of PhD at @summerfieldlab is out! In this work, we examine the role of action prediction errors (APEs) in cognitive control: osf.io/5ezxs (1/4)

I'm basically done here. Life is much more interesting on the site where the skies are blue, so hopefully I'll see you there. #neuroskyence

One-year 0.25 FTE lecturer position in Psychology at @StJohnsOx for 2024/25 academic year. Mostly intro to Psychology (Year 1) and Developmental Science (Year 2), although some flexibility. Ideal for Oxford-based ECRs who want to build teaching experience. sjc.ox.ac.uk/discover/vacanc…

Almost three years in the making, the preprint is out! We take another stab at the question: How do humans learn from reinforcement? (Spoiler alert: the answer is _not_ Reinforcement Learning). Huge thanks to the dream team: @summerfieldlab @nathanieldaw @kevinjmiller10

Looks fascinating.
Musical traditions across the globe exhibit extraordinary diversity, yet certain note collections transcend cultural boundaries. What cognitive constraints might explain this? In 4 experiments across 1048 participants, we examine this question. (1/9) osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/yk…

Not quite up with being there in person, but at least I can catch the @CogCompNeuro highlights on YouTube after the kids are in bed :-) “Is V1 a cognitive map?” was a great GAC today, particularly once the panel debate got going. youtube.com/live/mJOuWKTixX0…
Sad to be missing @CogCompNeuro #CCN2024 this year. But if you're going, check out the awesome work of @denislan_ , "Zero-shot spatial planning in humans and deep reinforcement learning agents" - poster C111 on Friday! 2024.ccneuro.org/poster/?id=…
