New ms on trinary choices! Somewhat surprisingly, our monkeys’ choices satisfied IIA (independence of irrelevant alternatives). In OFC, decision variables were represented in the same way under trinary and under binary choices. This property implies IIA. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New ms! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... I developed a normative coding theory for feedback-modulated canonical networks, providing a unified view of (1) efficient & predictive coding, (2) computational & algorithmic principles, (3) unimodal & multimodal sensory processing.

New collaborative ms! We built & trained a neural network that is biophysically realistic, performs multiple economic choice tasks, and provides insights into orbitofrontal cortex. (We = Aldo Battista 😉) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New ms! We’ve long hypothesized that different groups of neurons in OFC are the building blocks of a decision circuit. We now show that this circuit has a laminar architecture. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
