Model sharing in the human medial temporal lobe
Published 2022“…Using a new decision-making "heist task" in conjunction with computational modelling and fMRI we show that patterns of BOLD responses in the medial temporal lobe - a brain region key for prospective planning - become less sensitive to the presence of visual features when these are irrelevant to the task at hand. …”

Acoustic anemometry on the surface of Mars
Published 2014“…The impact of the transducer heads impeding the incident fluid flow was found to be very significant in wind tunnel testing. Preliminary computational models were found to accurately predict these effects, but a more comprehensive modelling campaign and experimental validation would be required to ensure accurate instrument calibration.…”

Causal evidence for learning-dependent frontal lobe contributions to cognitive control
Published 2018“…Here, we combined computational modeling with noninvasive brain stimulation to show that changes in control engagement are captured by a self-adjusting reinforcement-learning mechanism that tracks changing environmental statistics to predict forthcoming processing demands and that transient perturbation of the prefrontal cortex abolishes these adjustments. …”

Modulation of oscillatory activity in the cortico-subthalamic pathway by electrical stimulation in rodents and humans
Published 2018“…Interestingly, in tremor patients the phase of ongoing peripheral oscillation can be exploited with electrical ‘phase interference’, whereby cortical stimulation on specific phases of the tremor dampens both the pathological neuronal activity and resulting symptoms. Computational modelling suggests that the amplitude of beta oscillations could be modulated by applying stimulation at a specific phase. …”
