@k47h4.bsky.social - Adjunct Professor in Computational Neuroscientist @ The Institute of Neuroinformatics (UZH and ETH Zürich)
PhD/Postdoc position in Computational Neuroscience at the Institute of Neuroinformatics (UZH and ETH Zürich): we are investigating the neural circuits underlying perception and learning in uncertain environments: ini.uzh.ch/en/research/gr… @BernsteinNeuro @UZH_en @ETH_en
I am excited to announce that I've been awarded an SNSF Starting Grant! 🥳 I will start a lab at the Institute of Neuroinformatics in Zürich next year and we will work on "Neural mechanisms of perception and learning in uncertainty." @snsf_ch @UZH_en
A PhD position is open in my lab for those interested in studying the neuronal basis of visual perception - utilising virtual reality for mice, optogenetics, and in vivo imaging methods. See the following link for further information: findaphd.com/phds/project/a…
Job alert 🧠🚨🧨! I have three Research Assistant/Associate openings in my lab: one in computational neuroscience (jobs.ac.uk/job/DKE842/res…) and two in experimental neuroscience (jobs.ac.uk/job/DKE844/res…). Deadline, Nov 12th. Apply now! Get in touch for queries. Please RT 🙏.

Our new model of self-supervised learning in the neocortex is live on #bioarxiv! We explore self-supervised learning model in neocortical microcircuits. Our findings offer insights into the sparsity observed in neocortical layers & mismatch responses in visuomotor task and more.
🚨 neoSSL: Our story on how information flow in neocortical layers is perfectly placed for self-supervised learning (SSL) is now on bioRxiv doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… 🧵 (1/6)
I’m very excited to share our latest preprint: ‘Experience-dependent predictions of feedforward and contextual information in mouse visual cortex’ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Excited to be at #ICNCE2024 and talk about ‚Neural mechanisms underlying predictive processing in uncertainty‘ tomorrow! icnce-2024.de
🚨 New paper alert! Have you ever suspected that spikes, Dale's law, and E/I balance might be more than just biological constraints, but rather fundamental to how brains compute? Check out my latest work with Christian Machens @Neuro_CF: tinyurl.com/mpwkkubd 🧵 (1/5)
