This programme will benefit from Trinity's outstanding neuroimaging facilities, including a cutting-edge OPM-MEG system—one of the first in Europe.

PhD and postdoc recruitment will begin soon (details to follow). If you are interested, or know someone who might be, please get in touch!

I have appreciated my time at the University of Bristol, where I met excellent colleagues and students.

With support from a European Research Council ( @erc.europa.eu) Consolidator Grant, I will launch a new research programme on the computational and neural mechanisms of preference variability.

Excited to announce that this November I will be joining Trinity College Dublin @tcddublin.bsky.social as Professor in Cognitive & Decision Sciences, based in the Institute of Neuroscience and the School of Psychology 🇮🇪

Some thoughts on that: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

Binz et al. (in press, Nature) developed an LLM called Centaur that better predicts human responses in 159 of 160 behavioural experiments compared to existing cognitive models. See: arxiv.org/abs/2410.20268

Needless bureaucracy and “bullshit jobs” are preventing academics from fulfilling their core creative responsibilities and making clinical research an “impossible task”, a leading neuroscientist has warned. @patrickjack.bsky.social reports

Excited to share a new paper by @maryamtohidi.bsky.social on how a third inferior alternative influences human value learning 👇

Deeply honoured to receive an #ERCCoG ERC Consolidator Grant to explore the Dynamics of Attribute Weighting in Multiattribute Choice. Grateful to my amazing ERC StG team: @ycaoneuro.bsky.social, @marcussiems.bsky.social , Maryam Tohidi, Molly Stapleton for their support and trust. 🙏@ERC_Research

Would love to be added!

Thanks! Would love to be added

@ktsetsos.bsky.social and I wrote a new Perspective paper: osf.io/preprints/ps...

We've long known that decisions can be biased by normatively irrelevant factors. But how do these biases arise in the brain?

Hi everyone, good to be here! Keen to talk and learn about decision-making, attention, cognitive science, neural dynamics & more.
To break the ice, here is a snapshot of our work on rhythmic attentional sampling in 3-alt choice (led by Marcus Siems).
