Large-scale neural recordings call for new insights to link brain and behavior
Neuroscientists today can measure activity from more neurons than ever before, and are
facing the challenge of connecting these brain-wide neural recordings to computation and …

[HTML][HTML] Pupil-linked arousal is driven by decision uncertainty and alters serial choice bias
While judging their sensory environments, decision-makers seem to use the uncertainty about
their choices to guide adjustments of their subsequent behaviour. One possible source of …

Harnessing behavioral diversity to understand neural computations for cognition
Highlights • Behavioral diversity can be leveraged to reveal neural circuit functions. •
Complex tasks allow inference of latent behavioral variables to relate to neural activity. • …

Choice history biases subsequent evidence accumulation
10.7554/eLife.46331.001 Perceptual choices depend not only on the current sensory input
but also on the behavioral context, such as the history of one’s own choices. Yet, it remains …

Mice alternate between discrete strategies during perceptual decision-making
Classical models of perceptual decision-making assume that subjects use a single, consistent
strategy to form decisions, or that decision-making strategies evolve slowly over time. …

[PDF][PDF] Confirmation bias through selective overweighting of choice-consistent evidence
People's assessments of the state of the world often deviate systematically from the information
available to them [1]. Such biases can originate from people's own decisions: committing …

Adaptive history biases result from confidence-weighted accumulation of past choices
Perceptual decision-making is biased by previous events, including the history of preceding
choices: observers tend to repeat (or alternate) their judgments of the sensory environment …

Pupil-linked phasic arousal predicts a reduction of choice bias across species and decision domains
Decisions are often made by accumulating ambiguous evidence over time. The brain’s arousal
systems are activated during such decisions. In previous work in humans, we found that …

[HTML][HTML] Rethinking academia in a time of climate crisis
Addressing the climate crisis requires radical and urgent action at all levels of society.
Universities are ideally positioned to lead such action but are largely failing to do so. At the same …
