May our work benefit all (kinds of) beings.

Our new preprint argues that vulnerability and mortality are features, not bugs, for agents that adapt and provide care.

On a Geometry for Interbrain Networks

Discrete Ricci curvature + entropy can reveal phase transitions and information routing in social neural dynamics.

Accepted to the 4th NeurReps neurreps.bsky.social workshop at NeurIPS neuripsconf.bsky.social 2025.

With Noah Guzmán & mweber.bsky.social.

Thrilled to join the Steering Committee of the Society for Philosophy and Neuroscience ‪‪@socphilneuro.bsky.social

I’ll contribute to shaping next year's conference with a fantastic team led by Danielle J. Williams @okaydaniellle.bsky.social and David Barack @dlbarack.bsky.social

#neuroskyence

We treat affect as the expected free energy of self-relevant prediction errors, with a temporal aim that tiles past and future into a unified generative model.

Rupture --> repair --> reattunement appear as phase transitions and the FRc entropy acts as a surprisal gauge of them.

If you fancy the idea that emotions are inferences we make together, have a read and fire back with critiques, questions, or priors of your own.

Got to meet @davidchalmers.bsky.social and wonderful peers at the inaugural meeting of the Society for Neuroscience and Philosophy @socphilneuro.bsky.social at @washu.bsky.social

Go, MCCCs!

#SPAN2025

@jrbneuropsiq.bsky.social at @socphilneuro.bsky.social on the need of a psychopathological turn past the pre-paradigmatic heterogeneity of explanations of mental health disorders via a metatheoretic analysis towards a coherent and integrated framework built atop a taxonomic space of theories.

John Krakauer killing off Simulation Ideology for the 1st annual meeting of @socphilneuro.bsky.social!
@pessoabrain.bsky.social seems to be a fan?

Looking forward to the #DSPNW session later today.

Stoked to share my epistemic take on hyperscanning and some of the empiric work it stems from ;-)

New protocol for dual infrared thermal imaging + video to track affective co-regulation in parent-infant dyads during the Still-Face Procedure!

Contactless, scalable, and clinically relevant.

Chirimuuta at #NeuroExp2025: if cognition depends on its material substrate, at what cost could neuromorphic systems compute like brains?

Looking forward to talks by Matteo Colombo @tilburg-university.bsky.social, Fatma Deniz @tuberlin.bsky.social, and @neurograce.bsky.social

We present a prospective framework for cognitive neuropragmatics!

Stoked to have presented ‘Hyperscanning Priors at Mesoscale’ during the ‘Recentering Neuro on Behavior’ School at Fondazione Ettore Majorana in Erice! Thrilling lineup with @afabregastejeda.bsky.social & @eknapska.bsky.social and a call for a Centre of Excellence in Mental Health Sciences!

Thinking "what if" to stay sharp? Our preprint on EEG/ERPs shows how (counter-)factual contexts modulate cognitive demands in the elderly! Out now in #bioarXiv #Neuroscience

strike a pose @bayesianboy

Third day at @nencki being kicked off by Paul Cisek on an evolutionary theory of functional brain.
Further adding awesomeness to an already awesome array of talks by Eve Marder, @PessoaBrain, Yukie Nagai, @bayesianboy and @Nicole_C_Nelson
