I am running as Program Committee Chair-Elect for the Society for the Neurobiology of Language! I'd love to help shape the program of the conference & more generally actively engage with the SNL Annual Meeting community. Cast your votes👇🏽 (and reach out with Qs and suggestions!)

📣Neurotweops! Oxford will soon advertise *2* positions for Neuroscience group leaders Department of Physiology Anatomy & Genetics (DPAG). Due dates for applications will be in the autumn. Details to follow.

Beyond proud to have been part of the team behind this milestone. I believe the combination of LEAN + RL + LLMs will change how we do maths forever. This is just the beginning!

📢⚡️Job Alert⚡️📢 CogBooster is hire again!! We will soon be putting out 2 Tenured Assistant Professor positions in Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience (all major cognitive questions welcome). Positions will come with generous start-up funds! DM/email me if interested!

It’s time to work WITH memory! New work from our lab is out: Extra temporary subspace is necessary for information exchange or asynchronous programming. Mental programming of spatial sequences in working memory in the macaque frontal cortex | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Does encoding the present compete with predicting the future? In 3 behavioral studies, we find that encoding and prediction are coupled, not competitive! Proud of Craig Poskanzer & Hannah Tarder-Stoll for leading this work w/ Raheema Javid & Edoardo Spolaore! osf.io/preprints/psya…

I'm leaving Ernst Strüngmann Institute. I’ll miss the huge group of kind smart hardworking 95% who make it so promising. But relieved to leave the handful of people whose behavior does not meet minimal standards of morality. In admin & senior science, a few truly *appalling* people. 🧵 soon.

New priprint! When I started my PhD (ages ago), I ran what I thought was a pilot for several iconic memory experiments down the line. This was interesting because iconic memory is (allegedly) linked to rich perceptual experience, and so I had many questions. 1/🧵

We grieve the passing of Dr. Yves Frégnac. Yves has shaped the study of cortical processing and plasticity. He heralded interdisciplinarity and was one of the founding fathers of our institute. Our thoughts go to his family and to his friends in the community and beyond. pic.x.com/BGE4QGcg8g

This is one not to miss. Still time to sign up for today's session.

Go apply to work with Paul. I would in a heartbeat ...

More evidence that working memory is not persistent activity. Instead, it is dynamic on/off states with short-term synaptic plasticity. Intermittent rate coding and cue-specific ensembles support working memory nature.com/articles/s4158… #neuroscience

At 9 a.m. on the 22nd January 2024 my phone rang. We were told that the masses they had found the previous day were unequivocally cancer. It was the call no-one ever wants to receive. Liz was admitted to LGI that evening. At this time a year ago, she was sat on the floor next to

The countless hours & €€ I've spent applying for visas, dealing with the uncertainties! The number of times people doubted my abilities just by one quick look at my face! The constant feeling & active reminders of being an outsider! Great words EU- but reality is far from it.
