Had a wonderful time in Nijmegen during the (f)MRI toolkit Donders Institute w/ colleagues Volker Reisner Marco Badwal, Felix Deilmann, Alexander Nitsch & Artem Karew: Neuroimaging, the Waal & Pannenkoeken!

Slide deck from recent Thomas A Carlson Tutorial with Tim Behrens on "Representing States and Spaces." 4.5 hours, ~200 slides and we covered almost 2/3 of them! A public-speaking Everest :) 1/3 neurokim.com/2019/09/13/rep…

Integrating episodic and spatial information in the hippocampus? We combine a life-simulation game and navigation in a virtual city with fMRI to study neural processing of episodic and spatial memory. Come and chat with Alexander Nitsch at #SfN19 board BB78 today 8-12. Naomi de Haas

Excited to share work w/ Nico Schuck out now in Nature Communications! 💫 We introduce a new fMRI analysis method to decode fast neural event sequences and report replay in visual cortex following a non-mnemonic task! 🧠 - 📜 Paper: nature.com/articles/s4146… - 🧵 Thread below! 👇 [1/n]

Excited about our new preprint! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Here, we investigate how multiple hippocampal cognitive maps are used for generalization, and the role the orbitofrontal cortex plays in updating hippocampal world models competing for behavioral control.

How do we represent values to guide prospective decision making? Check out the poster by Alexander Nitsch Mona Garvert Nico Schuck at #SfN21!

#DeepMReye is out! Use #deeplearning to perform #eyetracking in #fMRI without camera! nature.com/articles/s4159… Markus Frey & I are thrilled to finally share our Code + Data + Notebooks + User Documentation + Paper Nature Neuroscience! With DoellerLab Kavli Neuroscience MPI für Kognitions- & Neurowissenschaften Thread below!👇1/7

Attending #OHBM2022 in Glasgow and interested in learning more about an entorhinal grid code supporting prospective value-based decision making? Check out my poster MT593 with Mona Garvert @jacobbellmund Nico Schuck DoellerLab today (Mon) at 12:15 & tomorrow (Tue) at 01:00!

There has been a lot of progress in our understanding of how the brain organises relationships in cognitive maps. But how is this knowledge used when guiding novel choice? Work with Tankred Saanum, Helmholtz Institute for Human-Centered AI, Nico Schuck & DoellerLab now in Nature Neuroscience rdcu.be/c83tL

Our new preprint is live: We show that the entorhinal cortex uses a grid-like representation to encode an abstract value space during prospective decision making - work together with Mona Garvert @jacobbellmund Nico Schuck DoellerLab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Attending #SfN23 in DC and interested in our work on grid-like coding of an abstract value space? Come by to chat at my poster VV32 today (Wed) 8-12. Mona Garvert @jacobbellmund Nico Schuck DoellerLab

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

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 @stephanie-theves.bsky.social biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

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…

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…

Excited to share our review, w. shany grossman (shared 1st!) and Nico Schuck where we discuss representational spaces in OFC/vmPFC and in deep RL models, featuring values, states and much more! cell.com/trends/neurosc…. Fresh from the (virtual) print now in Trends in Neurosciences , 1/4
