Brain-like neural dynamics for behavioral control develop through reinforcement learning During development, neural circuits are shaped continuously as we learn to control our bodies. The ultimate goal of this process is to produce neural dynamics that enable the rich repertoire of behavi...

Very excited for the upcoming Cosyne in Montreal! I’ll be presenting my poster [2-126] Brain-like neural dynamics for behavioral control develop through reinforcement learning, on the Friday session at 13:15.

Feel free to drop by! The related pre-print is also out:

Can the motor system use sensory expectations to prepare for unexpected events?

Excited to share my latest work with @andpru.bsky.social – where we establish that sensory expectations shape neural population dynamics in motor circuits!

A great study allowing for more rigorous statistical testing of topological measures! I am looking forward reading it.

Thanks! Nice to see you here too. I hope that a scientific community will form here again like in the old days on Twitter 🤞.
