Are you interested in developing reinforcement learning (RL) models to understand internal cognitive processes (in particular, perception and perceptual multistability)? There's a position at TU Dresden calling for you!

A year ago, Pedro Márquez-Zacarías gave a seminar at my university that inspired me to delve deeper into the ideas proposed by Robert Rosen. A month ago, he and his collaborators at the Santa Fe Institute have proposed a new relational biology framework to characterize how self-organizing living processes arise from more basic components. What are the main gaps in this model? Can we reconcile it with other relational models proposed in the last decade?

We are looking for new team members to join the Complex Networks and Brain Dynamics group to work on its interdisciplinary projects. The group is part of the Department of Complex Systems, Institute of Computer Science of the Czech Academy of Sciences – based in Prague, Czech Republic.

Unlock the mysteries of the brain. Join a pioneering team at the forefront of neuroimaging and computational neuroscience.

The CoBrain satellite workshop aims to bring together researchers from neuroscience, complex systems, and related fields to explore complexity in brain dynamics, structure, and function. This one-day event will feature four keynote presentations and contributed talks discussing cutting-edge methods and theories for understanding the intricate complexity of the brain across multiple scales.

How does the brain’s wiring and function shape our state of consciousness—from deep sleep to psychedelics? We're recruiting a PhD student to explore structure-function dynamics using whole-brain modeling, fMRI, and HPC at INRIA. Join us to study the Modulation of Dynamical Structure–Function Correlation Across States of Consciousness.

Commemorating the first mourning anniversary of Daniel Dennett, one of the most influential philosophers of our time, today I bring you a review of one of his most interesting essays, which despite its publication date is still relevant today given the fervent debate on whether or not it is possible to achieve a artificial general intelligence.

2 year postdoc position at LSE to develop empirically informed models of reputation dynamics on evolving social networks, as part of Leverhulme project on Reputation and the Reproduction of Social Inequality.
