If you are at #FENS2024 and interested in flexible behaviour, come tomorrow afternoon to my poster (PS04-27PM-105) to learn and discuss how overtraining can enhance reversal rule learning.

[Silvia Maggi @simaggi1]

Here we come! #FENS2024 is starting in beautiful and sunny Vienna!

Excited that our paper on tracking trial-by-trial choice strategies is out at eLife* https://t.co/nXgbtcKWZW

Want to know when & what your subjects learnt, and what they tried on the way?

Links to Python and Matlab toolboxes in the thread

(*old eLife model hence the delay)

[Martin O'Neill @dukeloath]

Delighted that this simple, effective, much-needed method to detect strategies in behavioural experiments is now out in @eLife:
