Kiwi in QLD 🥝 Science nerd 🔭 Computer enjoyer 💻

PhD researcher in Cognitive/Computational Neuroscience 🧠 Studying how the brain leverages experience to support sensory processing and decision-making under uncertainty.

Distractions encouraged.
Excited to be presenting behavioral and modeling work looking at perceptual decision making under uncertainty with recently learned priors at the EPC/APCV joint meeting today at UNSW, Sydney!

Catch me at 2:45pm in Gallery 1!

New paper @ JOV!

With Matt Oxner, Frank Schumann and David Carmel.

Yes!

An absolute pleasure to present some new data at ACNS 2024 in (mostly) sunny Newcastle. Here we showed that human observers judgements of simple motion stimuli broadly follow precision-weighted inference principles. @acnsau.bsky.social
