🚨 Paper alert: To appear in the DBM Neurips Workshop LITcoder: A General-Purpose Library for Building and Comparing Encoding Models 📄 arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2509.091... 🔗 project: litcoder-brain.github.io

Just back from an awesome visit to Georgia Tech to speak at their Computational Cognition Postdoc Day. Very impressed by their community. And really happy to finally have met my good friend and student @neurotaha.bsky.social in person after knowing each other remotely for over 3 years!
