Cognitive Computational Neuroscience.
Investigating how humans organise task representations to efficiently learn and perform multiple tasks.
New preprint with Maurice De Walsche, Pauline Maelfait and Tom Verguts. In three behavioral experiments we go beyond the traditional latent class theory on generalization to test the limits of human flexibility.

Our meta-analyses (together with Tom Verguts), using computational models to investigate shifts in learning strategies across learning environments is now finally out in Psychological Review! doi.org/10.1037/rev0...

Our short opinion paper (with Tom Verguts) is accepted by Current Opinion in Behavioural Sciences! authors.elsevier.com/c/1ilsC8MqMi... Here, we argue that human learning and decision making requires hierarchy and modularity. However, this comes with several computational challenges.

We wrote a brief opinion article, with @chaimengqiao, Leslie Held, and @ShengjieXu0813, on why we believe most cognitive control processes should not be considered off-the-shelf processes that can be readily applied in any task, whenever asked to: authors.elsevier.com/a/1iSXH8MqMi... (1/3)

New review paper out with Tom Verguts!

We argue that cognitive flexibility requires hierarchy and modularity.
However, adding these computational features to classic learning rules comes with several challenges.
Challenges that can be addressed by AI and cognitive scientists.

🚨 Very excited to share the first preprint of my PhD project. Working with Clay Holroyd, Marcel Brass, and @sebraem.bsky.social
, we designed a novel paradigm to investigate dynamic changes in task preparation in a multi-task environment.
