Large language models (LLMs) can reliably distinguish grammatical from ungrammatical sentences, but how grammatical knowledge is represented within the models remains an open question. We investigate ...

Model-learning agents should gather information to learn world models that support many downstream tasks and inferences, such as predicting unobserved states, estimating near- and far-term consequence...

The Kempner brings leading, early-stage postdoctoral scientists to Harvard to work on projects that advance the fundamental understanding of intelligence.

First Workshop on Interpreting Cognition in Deep Learning Models (NeurIPS 2025)

Neural computations support stable behavior despite relying on many dynamically changing biological processes. One such process is representational drift (RD), in which neurons' responses change over ...

Modelling biological decision-making with tiny recurrent neural networks enables more accurate predictions of animal choices than classical cognitive models and offers insights into the underlying cog...

Synaptic plasticity is the basis of learning and memory, but the link between synaptic changes and neural function remains elusive. Here, we used automated search algorithms to obtain thousands of str...

The J. A. Dieudonné research unit and the NeuroMod Institute at Université Côte d'Azur are proud to announce the opening of a Junior Professorship Chair on

UCL is consistently ranked as one of the top ten universities in the world (QS World University Rankings 2010-2022) and is No.2 in the UK for research power (Research Excellence Framework 2021).

Improvements to brain–computer interfaces are bringing the technology closer to natural conversation speed.

Merging ideas from reinforcement learning theory with recent insights into the filtering properties of the dorsal raphe nucleus, a unifying perspective is found explaining why serotonin neurons are ac...

Professor Gabriele Lignani, Queen Square Institute of Neurology, is leading an international team of researchers to develop a new generation of cell-state ge...

European Academic Career Opportunities in 2025

Inviting all Curious Agents to attend our workshop! The goal of PIMBAA is to bring together experts in intrinsic motivation across cognitive sciences, neuroscience, developmental science, robotics and...

Making new decisions requires retrieving memories, but when this occurs is unclear. The authors show that people typically access memories before a choice unless there are many related memories to con...

A generative vision model offers a detailed theory for cortical columns, thalamus, and computations in cortical circuits.
