New paper: The metabolic framework of reward We reframe reward as a computation of metabolic optimization. Dopamine and opioids, do not signal reward but act as physiological agents. Learning and behavior serve the brain’s goal of optimizing energy use.

New paper w/ the brilliant @OdedWertheimer suggests a new computational framework for ASD variation, framing it as a computational trade-off between precise signal encoding and fast adaptation to changes. This trade-off is driven by neuronal dynamic range. Read more:

Can the convergence of cognitive science, biology, and philosophy unlock radical new concepts like self-constructing bodies and collective minds? Check out how eloquently Michael Levin @drmichaellevin breaks it down!!!
