Now published!
This research from Boundy-Singer et al. models the relationship between people's confidence and the accuracy of their decisions. The authors argue that their framework describes mechanisms behind the sense of confidence better than previous models. buff.ly/3NFUnoe
Nick Watters has developed MEDiCINe, a superior motion correction method for ephys (e.g., neuropixels) with dedicated website, demos, use instructions, open-sourced code, data, and instructions for reproducing results. Hope it expedites your research! jazlab.github.io/medicine/
The long gestating final chapter of my thesis is out in @SfNJournals this week as a featured cover article. Thanks to all my coauthors @GorisLab @gabrielmstine @EeroSimoncelli @TonyMovshon and Richard Perez. Short preview below 1/7: doi.org/10.1523/JNEURO…
This Week in The Journal #JNeurosci | The Role of Higher Visual Cortices in Texture Discrimination; Rethinking Aperiodic Activity during Sleep Stages jneurosci.org/content/44/42/…
Incredibly proud of our postbac Corey Plate presenting our work on domain generality of metacognition across perceptual and value-based decision-making. My first (scientific) collab with @CMZiemba ;) #SNE2024
We'll be talking about our exciting findings from this collaboration today at 3:15pm in room N426 at #SfN24 #sfn2024 Come check it out! cattendee.abstractsonline.com/meeting/20433/…
I’m excited to share the results of a massive collaborative effort from the @brody_lab, now in preprint form at: tinyurl.com/crs85sta Thread below:
New preprint from @ThomasALanglois and @julie_charlton_ ! tinyurl.com/kfckzx8j We asked how prior expectations are combined with sensory signals to form a perceptual decision in macaque PFC.

New from the lab, work by @zoebsinger and @CMZiemba. Here we investigated how population activity in early sensory cortex informs perceptual choices as well as perceptual confidence. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Happy to share a new preprint by the brilliant and indefatigable @MiguelVivarLazo. The first of several stories we want to tell with this rich dataset, which features joint measurements of choice, reaction time, and confidence along with ensemble recordings from LIP...
Dear friends and colleagues -- My lab has a postdoc opening for an exciting new project. We are looking for someone with top software engineering skills. I'd appreciate it if you could RT and distribute widely. Jib posting below: dropbox.com/scl/fi/r9m2544…
We tested the intentional hypothesis in PFC using population ephys and a flexible decision making task. Out today in Nature Neuro! nature.com/articles/s4159…
Hot off the Press: "Abstract deliberation by visuomotorneurons in prefrontal cortex" - Julie A. Charlton & Robbe L. T. Goris has been published in Nature Neuroscience rdcu.be/dF7Kl @julie_charlton_ @NatureNeuro
At #Cosyne2024 ? Check out @julie_charlton_ 's poster tomorrow!
Movements alter V1 activity in mice, but two new studies suggest that something else is going on in monkeys. How is the field making sense of this? And what does it mean for cross-species comparisons? My latest for @_TheTransmitter: thetransmitter.org/animal-models/…
Sub-additivity (aka. response normalization) and variability quenching often go hand-in-hand in cortex. Why? We provide some potential answers: rdcu.be/dy1q5 -- a review with @GorisLab @CoenCagli_Lab @kendmil and Nick Priebe.
Why is human perception systematically biased? In joint @NatureNeuro work with @weixx2 , we provide a unified theory of perceptual biases. OA link: rdcu.be/dyHzf journal page: nature.com/articles/s4159…
The Goris lab has two posters at #SfN23 . Tomorrow morning come learn about metacognitive learning. At Tuesday's afternoon session learn about how neural population dynamics predict the use of prior information in perceptual decision making.
This afternoon, Ruben Coen-Cagli and Robbe Goris are co-hosing a mini-symposium: Suppression and Variability in Visual Cortex highlighting theoretical and empirical work which is revealing the link between these two concepts. Come checkout our great line-up of speakers! #SfN23
At #SfN23? This afternoon I'm excited to share our work on the representation of uncertainty in visual cortex in the minisymposium on suppression and variability in visual cortex.
