I am recruiting graduate students for the experimental side of my lab @mcgill.ca for admission in Fall 2026!
Get in touch if you're interested in how brain circuits implement distributed computation, including dopamine-based distributed RL and probabilistic representations.

Our brains do so much more than just “normalize” sensory info—they flexibly integrate input across different senses and reference frames, thanks to advanced feedforward networks in the brain. Dive into the full study by the Blohm Lab in the CNS here: www.jneurosci.org/content/45/4...
