Happy to share the results of a new experiment done in collaboration with Rena Bayramova, DoellerLab and Roberto Bottini on Nature Communications ! “Mental search of concepts is supported by egocentric vector representations and restructured grid maps” nature.com/articles/s4146… 1/n

"Structuring the cognitive map" - for today's virtual Mind Meeting MPI für Kognitions- & Neurowissenschaften we are excited to host Russell Epstein The Epstein Lab Talk starts at 3.30 pm CET, ✉️[email protected] for login details

New preprint! Grid-like signals reflect time-estimation biases, with Bayesian models offering a parsimonious explanation: Entorhinal activity & behavior reflect encoding of task regularities! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… w/ Co-first Ignacio Polti(!) R.Kaplan, Virginie van Wassenhove,DoellerLab

Dear colleagues, please circulate these ads for two fully funded PhD positions in my new group. Topics can cover grid cells, retrosplenial cortex, head direction, subiculum and boundary coding + cog maps generally. cbs.mpg.de/stellenmarkt/s…

Wie gelingt es unserem #Gehirn, in Entscheidungssituationen gute Vorhersagen zu treffen und die beste Option für die #Zukunft zu wählen? Alexander Nitsch & Christian Doeller DoellerLab sind gemeinsam mit Nico Schuck dieser Frage in Nature Communications nachgegangen: tinyurl.com/yzyyz5sf

Have a look at our latest paper on grid-like value representations, out now in Nature Communications.

New paper out with Rena Bayramova, DoellerLab, and Roberto Bottini on the link between spontaneous eye movements and the representational geometries of conceptual spaces during verbal fluency tasks (VFT) doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Please retweet! I am excited to share that I am looking for motivated postdocs who want to come and work with me at NYU (please apply here: apply.interfolio.com/145544)🧵⬇️ (1/3)

One of my PhD projects is online! We show that category prototypes correspond to interpolated states in a cognitive map that guide cortical pattern completion during category-based decisions. w/ Mirko Thalmann, Helmholtz Institute for Human-Centered AI, DoellerLab, Stephanie Theves biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We're very proud of Rachel G Zsido from Cognitive Neuroendocrinology & Markus Frey Markus Frey from DoellerLab winning the Otto-Hahn-Medal for their excellent dissertations🏅Rachel researches sex #hormones and the #female brain and Markus focuses on #eyetracking and neuronal networks.

Our Otto Hahn Medal 🏅winners Rachel G Zsido and Markus Frey Markus Frey explain in a short interview what motivates them in their #research, what their #thesis was all about and what #sciencetopics they are working on atm #sciencegoals: cbs.mpg.de/2236174/202406…

Our new preprint is live: We show that the anterior hippocampus integrates episodic and spatial context signals - work together with Naomi de Haas Mona Garvert DoellerLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Erin Schuman, director at MPI for Brain Research, is awarded the prestigious Körber European Science Prize for her groundbreaking work showing that proteins critical for neuron communication and memory are produced at synapses. Congratulations, Erin! 👉bit.ly/4cjjV5R Erin schuman

What began as a slightly intoxicated walk on Huntington beach in California with my buddy Ben Griffiths last summer, ended in a published paper today in Communications Psychology. (1/7)

Our preprint is online!  We show how the hippocampal-entorhinal cognitive maps could solve the general problem of representing and relating multiple alternative action plans.  Work together with Simone Viganò Daniel Reznik Patrick Haggard DoellerLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
