New Preprint alert 🚨 “Inter-areal coupling for cognition through coincident oscillatory transients” together with @ycaoneuro.bsky.social @ktsetsos.bsky.social @donnerlab.bsky.social & Andreas Engel #MEG #neuroscience #bioRxiv www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🧠 We’re hiring! Join the Irrationality Lab @ Trinity College Dublin for ERC-funded postdoc positions in Decision Neuroscience. Work with OPM-MEG + computational modeling to uncover how the brain shapes, maintains and revises preferences. Apply & info: www.ktsetsoslab.net/_files/ugd/0... #NeuroJobs

🚀Our new chapter is out, “Perspectives on the Mechanistic Underpinnings of Choice Biases,” written with @ktsetsos.bsky.social and published in Decision Making: Mechanisms and Applications (edited by Carsten Murawski, Ulrich Ettinger, and Bert Heinrichs): link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

🚨New preprint on @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social: “Competing Neural Decision Variables in Human Frontal Cortex Shape Decision Confidence” by Alessandro Toso, @ayeletarazi.bsky.social, @jrochav.bsky.social, @ktsetsos.bsky.social & Tobias H. Donner 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to announce that this November I will be joining Trinity College Dublin @tcddublin.bsky.social as Professor in Cognitive & Decision Sciences, based in the Institute of Neuroscience and the School of Psychology 🇮🇪

Binz et al. (in press, Nature) developed an LLM called Centaur that better predicts human responses in 159 of 160 behavioural experiments compared to existing cognitive models. See: arxiv.org/abs/2410.20268

Needless bureaucracy and “bullshit jobs” are preventing academics from fulfilling their core creative responsibilities and making clinical research an “impossible task”, a leading neuroscientist has warned. @patrickjack.bsky.social reports #AcademicSky

Excited to share a new paper by @maryamtohidi.bsky.social on how a third inferior alternative influences human value learning 👇

Deeply honoured to receive an #ERCCoG ERC Consolidator Grant to explore the Dynamics of Attribute Weighting in Multiattribute Choice. Grateful to my amazing ERC StG team: @ycaoneuro.bsky.social, @marcussiems.bsky.social , Maryam Tohidi, Molly Stapleton for their support and trust. 🙏@ERC_Research

@ktsetsos.bsky.social and I wrote a new Perspective paper: osf.io/preprints/ps... We've long known that decisions can be biased by normatively irrelevant factors. But how do these biases arise in the brain?

Hi everyone, good to be here! Keen to talk and learn about decision-making, attention, cognitive science, neural dynamics & more. To break the ice, here is a snapshot of our work on rhythmic attentional sampling in 3-alt choice (led by Marcus Siems). #neuroskyence #neuroscience #PsychSciSky
