Interested in cognitive processes, neural circuits, philosophical constructs, economic theories and computational models of choice. And in a few other things.
New ms on trinary choices! Somewhat surprisingly, our monkeys’ choices satisfied IIA (independence of irrelevant alternatives). In OFC, decision variables were represented in the same way under trinary and under binary choices. This property implies IIA.

Neuronal Activity in Orbitofrontal Cortex during Trinary Choices under Risk
Economic choice entails computing and comparing the subjective values of different goods. Orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is thought to contribute to both operations. However, previous work focused almost ...

I developed a normative coding theory for feedback-modulated canonical networks, providing a unified view of (1) efficient & predictive coding, (2) computational & algorithmic principles, (3) unimodal & multimodal sensory processing.

Convergence of efficient and predictive coding in multimodal sensory processing
The existence of pathways connecting different sensory modalities in the brain challenges the traditional view of sensory systems as operating independently. However, the reasons and mechanisms underl...

New collaborative ms! We built & trained a neural network that is biophysically realistic, performs multiple economic choice tasks, and provides insights into orbitofrontal cortex.

A Neural Circuit Framework for Economic Choice: From Building Blocks of Valuation to Compositionality in Multitasking
Value-guided decisions are at the core of reinforcement learning and neuroeconomics, yet the basic computations they require remain poorly understood at the mechanistic level. For instance, how does t...

New ms! We’ve long hypothesized that different groups of neurons in OFC are the building blocks of a decision circuit. We now show that this circuit has a laminar architecture.

‘Huge influx’ of neuroscientists migrates to Bluesky
Daily neuroscience-related posts on the social-media platform this week have increased more than 400 percent, on average, compared with October.
