1/n Our work on a perceptual confirmation bias is finally out. Why do different perceptual decision-making studies find different temporal biases? What is their computational basis? Joint work with @wrongu, @ankani, @jake and Jeff Beck.. https://t.co/nwrQaZAmVp

In our latest collection of #free #education #resources, we explore #cognitive #science with Professor Ralf Haefner from the @haefnerlab at @UofR . How do processes in our #brains #bias our #decision-making? https://t.co/0G8kmS37Z3

Next week (Nov 16), @SussilloDavid will tell his unofficial story. Among all that we have heard over the years, his is particularly poignant and harrowing.

We believe

💎 Everyone should be able to read and publish research for free

🌍 Research publishing should be commonly owned and run, not for profit

🔢 All data should be open and re-usable

We are delighted to announce a new open publishing initiative

[CogCompNeuro @CogCompNeuro]

There are only TEN DAYS left to submit your proposal for a GAC at CCN 2022!

“A GAC?“, you say. “What’s a GAC?”

Allow us to explain… 🧵👇(1/n)

We are happy to announce Nencki School of Ideas in Neuroscience! We are going to discuss exciting theories, have a philosopher's eye view on neuroscience, and show how to relate theories to experiments - and develop new ideas! https://t.co/ZgzJnCac0n

@Leorkatz @wrongu @ankani @jake @jcbyts Oh no! Many thanks. Sorry @jcbyts!

@wrongu @ankani @jake 8/n Many thanks to @summerfield, @realrickborn, @nienborglab, @aplabur, @azylb, Duje Tadin and many others for helpful comments.

[Ralf Haefner @haefnerlab]

@wrongu @ankani @jake 7/n Our data are not explainable by existing alternative accounts: neither integration-to-bound nor attractor-dynamics within a decision area are sensitive to the balance of sensory and category information - only to their combination.
