When Bayesian brain theories talk about 'precision', what precisely do they mean? In @CurrentBiology @cdfrith & I explain how precision has shaped thinking about perception, learning, metacognition & social interaction. But some key puzzles remain unsolved https://t.co/lYV6SvSilq

Pretty sure this is the most accepted a poster abstract can get

Interested in predictive coding? @drclbuckley, @anilkseth and I have put together a comprehensive new review covering both the core theory in an accessible way as well as many recent advances in the field.

Our brains predict the outcomes of our actions, shaping reality into what we expect. That’s why we see what we believe. From the archive: https://t.co/wJcfdRhCYu

So what's new? i always hate that question. But when @NatRevNeurosci asks for my reflections on neuroscience to celebrate its 20th anniversary, I reflect. Here are said reflections from me and loads of wonderful neuroscientists. Interesting read!

Bayesian brain theories propose a fundamental shift in how we think about the mind, with goals and desires replaced by predictions and errors. In @NatureComms @CeliaHeyes, @ClarePress & I argue why we should resist this ‘desert landscape’ view of cognition https://t.co/xGzSlPGH4t

Visual mismatch responses (VMRs) index surprise in a *surprisingly* all-or-none way... Preprint now up for this study led by @DanFeuerriegel, with @HinzeHogendoorn and @DLabMelbourne

[Hinze Hogendoorn @HinzeHogendoorn]

Are we surprised by things that are unusual, or bored by things that stay the same? Some cool work with @DanFeuerriegel @DLabMelbourne @DrQuekles and others shows that for the brain's visual mismatch response, it is the former more than the latter! Check it out:

3D portrait of Chopin created by artist Hadi Karimi, who uses photographs and death masks as references.

Amazing.

[Jakob Hohwy @hohwy]

How might we go from what Chalmers called “arbitrary” to “systematic” Neural Correlates of Consciousness, with more explanatory/predictive power? We suggest using a framework that is not itself (at first) a theory of consciousness. With @anilkseth https://t.co/rje21iblPs

And now for something completely different... my recent paper on pattern separation and expectation violation is finally out in #JNeurosci @SfNJournals https://t.co/B8V7odWOAQ

[Martin Vinck @martin_a_vinck]

We all think of the brain as an hierarchical system (do we?) but what does that mean?
