Do you "look at nothing" when making a decision? Here we provide further evidence about the connection betwee gaze into nothing and decision confidence, revealing more on the sequential hidden dynamics of decisions journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

Great work with @d-ferro.bsky.social‬ and Ben Hayden

New open PhD position in Theoretical and Computational Neuroscience in my lab. We want to discover the basis of natural intelligence. Please, spread the word, and apply if interested. See more details below.

Our Barcelona-based summer school, BAMB! (bambschool.org) just opened applications! Come join us: 15-24th July, to learn how to model behavioral data using RL, Bayesian, latent variable models, RNNs, DDMs & more! #BAMB2025

Would be great to be added. Thanks! Credentials: scholar.google.com/citations?us...

Sure! Eg, here is my latest with Brent Doiron and others using linear response theory in circuits with multiple inhibitory subtypes: elifesciences.org/reviewed-pre...

Come to the San Juan Islands next summer to learn about some awesome data and hang out with a bunch of awesome scientists ... and me.

Playful behavior from the maximum occupancy principle. Maximizing action-state path entropy triggers object-oriented behavior, with curiosity and play as emerging intrinsic motivations Check out our IMOL @neuripsconf.bsky.social paper openreview.net/pdf?id=SzeK0... Work led by Chiara Mastrogiuseppe

State-of-the-art stochastic optimal control for dynamical systems with multiplicative observation and control noise, improving over well-known approaches Check out our @neuripsconf.bsky.social paper openreview.net/pdf?id=mZHbk... presented also at @Behavioral ML 2024 openreview.net/pdf?id=jAOwx...

NeuroMOP: the goal of the brain is to occupy activity space while avoiding terminal states (maximum occupancy principle). This leads to large neural variability and rich network behaviors Check out our @neuripsconf.bsky.social paper openreview.net/pdf?id=yXW2d... With Chiara Mastrogiuseppe

Early start for Mexico City 🇲🇽 I'm excited to speaking at Qualia - the first psychedelic science conference in Mexico 🧠 www.qualiaps.org I'm looking forward to catching up with @robincarhartharris.bsky.social & others there too. It's happening 29-30 Nov.

Postdoctoral position available with us and David Rios (www.davidriosinsua.es at ICMAT, bsky.app/profile/icma...) on collective behavior. Deadline Dec 20th, more info and application: aihub.csic.es/en/allies-co...

Maximum Occupancy Principle (MOP), our most recent work. We present a novel intrinsic motivation for natural behavior: occupying action-state path space. This sole objective is enough to produce goal-directed, complex, highly variable and interesting behaviors nature.com/articles/s41...

Hi all 👋, I am new here. We are a Computational and Theoretical Neuroscience group at Univ. Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona. We draw inspirations from neuroscience for future AI. Maximum Occupancy Principle. #neuroscience #neuroskyence #neuroai #compneurosky
