Textbook neuroscience teaches that anatomy dictates function. But which aspects of anatomy determine differences in function between species? We think neuroscience is now well-placed to tackle this question. Here is our attempt at one piece of the puzzle: www.nature.com/articles/s42...
Come join the lab @maynoothuniversity.ie and work with me and stellar collaborators @seanfw.bsky.social and @redmondoconnell.bsky.social!
Exciting project at the intersection of multi-task RNNs, compositional cognition and human decision neuroscience.

Just a few tickets left for our #brainawarenessweek2026 Irish Pioneers of Neuroscience Dublin Walking Tour tomorrow - it's free, tickets at the link below. It was great fun last year, hoping it'll stay rain-free for us this year too!

To find out about how #TMS #BrainStim users collect, analyse & share their data, we've made a very brief TMS survey:

It should take you less than 5 minutes & does not ask for any personal information.
We'll use the answers to plan our future work.
Please share!

In life, 3 things are certain: death, taxes, and decision-making variability🧠. Our review tinyurl.com/4dcwafc4 explores how computational models 💻 explain variability, their limits, and recent advances. A thread🧵👇

With @spk3lly.bsky.social and @neuromurphy.bsky.social, we investigated the neural computations that allow us to make near-optimal decisions in changing environments. Here's a short summary:
