Pleased to share that I’ll be part of a fantastic lineup at the BARCCSYN FENS Satellite Meeting on “Multi-scale Dynamics in Decision Making,” taking place on July 5th at IDIBAPS in Barcelona. Details and registration here: lnkd.in/dZ68-Czd
Postdoc position in Paris: come help develop new generation human brain computer interfaces ⚡🧠💻 Interested? Contact me if you have experience with machine learning (e.g. simulation-based inference, RL, generative/diffusion models) or dynamical systems. See below for + details and retweet 🙏
Questa sera comincia il Piccolo Festival di Filosofia organizzato dal Prof. Costantino Esposito, nella splendida cornice di Santa Maria di Leuca, in Salento. Due serate di dialogo e confronto sul tema: "Che significa essere un corpo?" 👇
Lombard: «La fiscalité des retraités qui gagnent plus de 20 000 euros par an sera légèrement augmentée, c’est une mesure de justice sociale.» La «justice sociale» consistant donc à surtaxer les retraité·es qui perçoivent 1 800 euros par mois après une vie de travail, plutôt que les milliardaires.

NEW 🧵 Is human intelligence starting to decline? Recent results from major international tests show that the average person’s capacity to process information, use reasoning and solve novel problems has been falling since around the mid 2010s What should we make of this? www.ft.com/content/a801...

Created a starter pack of neuroscience in/from Paris. Let me know if you want to be added (the 'from' can include those not in Paris anymore) or just tap in if you want to know what we're talking about! Regardless, please re-tweet! go.bsky.app/3Zs9w5w

Fun to see this place coming a bit more alive! I tried my hand at a starter pack for neural engineering & computationally-leaning (systems) neuroscience. Super not exhaustive, so if you want to be added (or removed), just ping me. I'm still working on finding folks here. go.bsky.app/Ty3ftme
Inland Empire: "Rot? No, they transform. The brain twists, grows, absorbs the strange and fantastical. Each pixel a seed of imagination, each quest a thread in the tapestry of your inner world. The question is: can you handle what grows there?"
Since no one did it, here is a list of people doing research on working memory. The list is admittedly biased (based on the people I follow), so please help: don't hesitate to let me know of someone missing. I will happily follow and add them to the list! Please RT🙏 go.bsky.app/8ZsVgMo
