Sensory expectations shape neural population dynamics in motor circuits
Nature - Experiments with human volunteers and macaques show that expectations produced by probabilistic cueing of future sensory inputs shape motor circuit dynamics in order to increase the...

Are top-down feedback connections enough for robust vision? We found ConvRNN with top-down feedback exhibiting OOD robustness only when trained with dropout, revealing a dual mechanism for robust sensory coding with @marco-d.bsky.social, Karl Friston, Giovanni Pezzulo & @siegellab.bsky.social 🧵👇
🔵 Proud to share our new preprint 🔵 We compared humans and deep neural networks on sound localization 👂📍 Humans robustly localized OOD sounds even without primary interaural cues (ITD & ILD) Models localized well only in-training distribution sounds, failing on OOD regime Link & full story 🧵👇
🧠⏱️ New preprint! We found that temporal prediction errors are more strongly encoded when an overt response is required, and this encoding occurs in motor rather than sensory space. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵👇
🔵 Tübingen Systems Neuroscience Symposium 2025 is here! 🔵 #SNS2025 brings together leading international researchers in system neuroscience 🧠 Join us for plenary lectures, poster sessions and social events on 6️⃣-7️⃣ October 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣5️⃣ registration is open here 👉 meg.medizin.uni-tuebingen.de/sns_2025/
🚨 NEW PAPER 🚨 Psychedelics alter cognition profoundly, but is the alteration of the visual perception causally related to high-level cognition modulation? In VR, we found that simulated visual hallucinations affect high-level human cognition in specific ways! Link 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.co... 🧵👇
You cannot decode perceived basic emotions categories using fMRI MVPA in just the amygdala... We've tried it, you've tried it, everyone's tried it, no one's talked about it... It doesn't work. The amygdala doesn't work like that. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

🔵 NEW PAPER 🔵 Spatiotemporal Style Transfer #STST is out on #NatureComputationalScience! STST as a framework for dynamic visual stimulus generation to study brain and machine vision feat. @siegellab.bsky.social paper: www.nature.com/articles/s43... code: github.com/antoninogrec... 🧵👇
The Raincloud Quartet (new pre-print) All N = 111, M = 0.04, SD = 0.27. One-sided t-tests vs. 0 yield: t(110) = 1.67, p = .049. Only raincloud plots reveal the qualitative differences, preventing the drawing of inappropriate conclusions. How did we create the quartet? Where are data & code? 🧵👇
