@RicoStecher
PhD student at @DKaiserLab. I use neuroimaging and machine learning-based approaches to learn more about how our brain imagines things.
Our opinion paper on how rhythms orchestrate the representation and propagation of content information in the visual cortex is now out in @TrendsNeuro. cell.com/trends/neurosc…
Hey hey! We‘re on the Cover of @TrendsNeuro - check out our article on rhythmic representations in the visual system below. 👁️🧠🌊
March 2025 issue of TINS: cell.com/issue/S0166-22… Free featured articles & more: cell.com/trends/neurosc… Cover article: ‘Decoding the rhythmic representation and communication of visual contents’, by Rico Stecher, Radoslaw Martin Cichy & Daniel Kaiser cell.com/trends/neurosc…
Now out in @TrendsNeuro: We discuss how the contents of visual perception, imagery, and prediction can be decoded from rhythmic brain activity and argue that such rhythmic representations offer new insights into neural information propagation. @RicoStecher sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
My preprint about representations of imaginary scenes in the alpha band (and first paper as first author ever) is now published in @SciReports. 😄 We show that our brains use alpha rhythms to reactivate scene-related visual contents during imagery. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Very happy to announce that, starting tomorrow, I will be joining Daniel Kaiser @kaiserdaniel13 as a PhD student at his new lab at the Mathematical Institute of the Justus Liebig University Gießen @jlugiessen! Really looking forward to the projects we will be working on together.
Ever wondered how face-identity is represented in the brain, in space and time? Twitterless fusion wizards Rico Stecher, Ilkka Muukkonen, Viljami Salmela, Sophie-Marie Rostalski, myself & @gkovacs1965 (@UniJena / @helsinkiuni) got you covered! 1/6 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
