Imagine a brain decoding algorithm that could generalize across different subjects and tasks. Today, we’re one step closer to achieving that vision.

Introducing the flagship paper of our brain decoding program: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It was an honour to give the grand rounds talk this morning in the Department of Surgery at CHU Sainte-Justine and Université de Montréal.

Thank you for the invitation. #neuroAI #compneuro

Calling all #UofT undergraduate students in Computer Science, Psychology, Neuroscience, and Engineering!

We're still accepting applications to supervise undergraduate thesis research and course projects starting Fall 2025. #CompNeuro #NeuroAI

In my lab, we're building new deep learning models for embodied visual intelligence, inspired by the visual information processing neural networks in the brain.

Amazing new blog post by Dr. Sergey Levine on how computational cognitive neuroscience (i.e., discovering fundamental principles of intelligence by reverse-engineering the human brain and mind) could be used to build next-generation AI algorithms!

We’ll be running a summer school in computational neuroscience at my university in #Ukraine! 🧠

The focus is on applying machine learning and AI to reverse-engineering the brain. #neuroAI #compneuro
