Projects

We work at the interface of several disciplines, from cognitive and computational neurosciences to neurobiology, engineering and artificial intelligence, and our projects involve a wide variety of techniques, from human psychophysics and animal neurophysiology, to behavioral and neural data analysis and modeling.

How far ahead does the brain plan complex sequences of movements? Investigating the planning horizon of neural dynamics in motor cortex

What internal operations happen in the brain when we plan an action? Investigating the inter-areal principles of planning at the neural population level

Do we learn, and how, when we use LLMs to solve a task? Investigating the impact of AI on human knowledge retention

Past Projects

How does the brain build and use expectations based on past experiences ? Investigating how the geometry of neural dynamics in frontal cortex incorporates temporal expectations

How does the brain predict the exact moment when something will occur? Investigating how neural dynamics in frontal cortex rescales to encode precise temporal predictions

How does the brain apply old knowledge to a new context? Investigating how neural dynamics in biological and artificial networks generalize to novel conditions

How does the brain plan multiple upcoming movements in parallel? Investigating how neural dynamics in motor cortex encodes several actions simultaneously
