It was great fun to get part of this collaborative review and experimental design focused on predictive processing in visual cortex. Big thanks to @jeromelecoq.bsky.social for coordinating the process! A new & very exciting way to approach open neuroscience with a large collaborative team!
How does our brain predict the future? Our review of predictive processing + research program is now on arXiv arxiv.org/abs/2504.09614
50+ neuroscientists distributed across the world worked together to create this unique community project.

After many months of collaboration with the ALBA team, our preprint Equitable Research Funding is now live! bit.ly/4iPIU3S
As EDI efforts increasingly face political pushback, we explore how equity is (or isn’t) embedded in funding systems. A snapshot capturing perspectives, approaches & challenges.
Equitable Research Funding: Strategies, Challenges, and the Role of Funding Agencies
Ensuring equitable access to research funding is crucial for fostering diversity, innovation, and excellence in science. Despite progress, significant disparities remain, with underrepresented researc...

Science isn’t just facts and research. It’s a beautifully chaotic endeavor, built for humans, by humans. In times like these, truth, diversity, and collaboration matter more than ever. We believe in equity and making discoveries that stand the test of time. This is our lab philosophy in a nutshell:

The perk of giving a 9am lecture? The campus is empty, the lighting is perfect for scenic photos, and you can wander like a lone adventurer… in search of a cup of coffee.

Recruiting for a new lab is like forming a band. We're not going for pop stardom - more like crafting something unique & a bit off the mainstream. Think Ninja Tune vibes, not Harry Styles or the K-pop recruitment machine (no offence). Join us and help name the band. Sarah and the Visionaries, maybe?
i highly recommend @ruedigersarah.bsky.social‬ lab - asking really exciting and important qs about how we convert sensation to decision making - using all the most fun tech! I did both PhD and postdoc in a 'new' lab - its an amazing environment to do great science with amazing mentorship. apply!!
