Why can we decode visual mental contents from primary visual cortex when there’s little evidence for sustained spiking in this part of the brain? Today at #CCN25 poster C104, Noa will present a tentative answer from her work with attractor models.

Can we draw conclusions about orientation tuning from EEG data? And… exactly how inhomogeneous is decoding across the visual field? What started as a “quick analysis” of some EEG data is now out in #naturecommunications. See the tweeprint below or check https://t.co/YhT2WiqmMe.
Who doesn’t like a good model of the brain? Yet, from simple regression to artificial networks, some limitations keep popping up (eg, overfitting). @mijowolff & I saw some cool but puzzling data, ran a quick analysis, and found 1 such limitation: model mimicry. Tweeprint 🚨 1/N

From a bear catching a fish to a tennis player hitting a ball - extrapolating the trajectory of an object is critical to know its future location. Giuliana will talk about the mechanisms that underlie such motion extrapolation at #VSS2025 this next session in Talk Room 2!!
Welcome #VSS2025! For those attending the sunny beaches and science at this years Florida conference, make sure not to miss the awesome talks and posters from our lab!

Wanna know about sensory & memory representations in visual cortex? After integrating the wisdom from several reviewers (and clever comments from 2 more reviewers at #elife still to go), this paper is now officially out: https://t.co/YJ0xGsjOoF (tweeprint below)
Are memories noisier versions of what we perceive? Fundamentally different? Seriously, think about it… Early visual cortex processes what we see around us, but also has information about images briefly held in mind. The two must be different… but how? TWEEPRINT ALERT! 🚨 🧵1/n

Very happy that this work is now published in eLife! We find that humans are unique in the way they encode pairs of stimuli, in the context of symbol-object relations. If you've learned that A->B, you spontaneously generalize it to B->A! The full story : https://t.co/4kpgr09UfR

Humans spontaneously reverse learned associations while macaque monkeys do not, providing a minimal test of a distinctive human capacity for symbolic representations.
How can we define symbols, and are humans unique in their ability to learn symbolic representations? In a recent study, we investigated this, using fMRI to directly compare how humans and macaque monkeys encode associations between stimuli https://t.co/ovjyZ649wr

Our new paper with @chrismlangdon is just out in @NatNeuro! We show that high-dimensional RNNs use low-dimensional circuit mechanisms for cognitive tasks and identify a latent inhibitory mechanism for context-dependent decisions in PFC data. https://t.co/ld0CQm7o3F

Excited to share my work with @EngelTatiana, out now in @NatNeuro! We show that RNNs use low-dimensional latent circuit mechanisms for cognitive tasks. We find that context-dependent decisions in both RNNs and PFC arise from latent inhibitory mechanisms.
