Publications Across Disciplines
From neurocomputation to translation.
We trace the mechanisms of adaptability and agency across scales, from neural circuits and cognitive dynamics to psychopathology, social and economic systems, and the design of adaptive algorithms for artificial agents.
PublicationsBringing disciplines into confluence to uncover mechanisms.
By connecting neural dynamics, cognition, psychopathology, social behavior, and adaptive AI, we seek principles that generalize across biological and artificial agents.
