Some incredibly exciting news that still feels a bit surreal: I am starting my research group @mpicybernetics.bsky.social! The best part? We are hiring at all levels! Curious about the science we plan to tackle, read along :) #NeuroSky

An illustration of different species, from worms to humans, foraging, indicating the main topic of our research group.

We have 2 open PhD positions @mpicybernetics.bsky.social, if you’re interested in reinforcement learning, recurrent neural networks and analyses of neural & behavioral data from novel, cross-species foraging experiments, there’s still time to apply: nextcloud.tuebingen.mpg.de/index.php/s/...

A complete brain-wide activity map at single-cell resolution has been revealed for the first time. Researchers recorded from 650,000+ neurons across 279 brain areas to track decision-making in mice. Read the story: 🔗 www.sainsburywellcome.org/web/research...

Our new paper with @chrismlangdon is just out in @natureneuro.bsky.social! We show that high-dimensional RNNs use low-dimensional circuit mechanisms for cognitive tasks and identify a latent inhibitory mechanism for context-dependent decisions in PFC data. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
