- @dataonbrainmind.bsky.social starting now in Room 10 with opening remarks from @crji.bsky.social and the first invited talk from @dyamins.bsky.social!
- Thrilled to start 2026 as faculty in Psych & CS @ualberta.bsky.social + Amii.ca Fellow! 🥳 Recruiting students to develop theories of cognition in natural & artificial systems 🤖💭🧠. Find me at #NeurIPS2025 workshops (speaking coginterp.github.io/neurips2025 & organising @dataonbrainmind.bsky.social)
- Reposted by eringrantNature Sci Rep publishes incoherent AI slop. eLife publishes a paper which the reviewers didn't agree with, making all the comments and responses public with thoughtful commentary. One of these journals got delisted by Web of Science for quality concerns from not doing peer review. Guess which one?
- Reposted by eringrantI'm on the academic job market! I design and analyze probabilistic machine-learning methods---motivated by real-world scientific constraints, and developed in collaboration with scientists in biology, chemistry, and physics. A few highlights of my research areas are:

- Reposted by eringrantThe rumors are true! #CCN2026 will be held at NYU. @toddgureckis.bsky.social and I will be executive-chairing. Get in touch if you want to be involved!
- Are similar representations in neural nets evidence of shared computation? In new theory work w/ Lukas Braun (lukasbraun.com) & @saxelab.bsky.social, we prove that representational comparisons are ill-posed in general, unless networks are efficient. @icmlconf.bsky.social @cogcompneuro.bsky.social
- Our #CCN2025 GAC debate w/ @gretatuckute.bsky.social, Gemma Roig (www.cvai.cs.uni-frankfurt.de), Jacqueline Gottlieb (gottlieblab.com), Klaus Oberauer, @mschrimpf.bsky.social & @brittawestner.bsky.social asks: 📊 What benchmarks are useful for cognitive science? 💭 2025.ccneuro.org/gac

- Reposted by eringrantPhew decisions are out..!! Congratulations to the authors of the 26 papers selected for the first edition of the CCN Proceedings 📜 @eringrant.bsky.social @neurosteven.bsky.social @cogcompneuro.bsky.social 1/2
- Reposted by eringrantBecause we must build good things while we scream about the bad, I have started a "Data for Good" team @data-for-good-team.bsky.social that partners with organizations needing short-term data science help. We have three projects ongoing & will add more as our capacity grows. data-for-good-team.org

- If you missed it at the #NeurIPS2024 posters! Work led by @leonlufkin.bsky.social on analytical dynamics of localization in simple neural nets, as seen in real+artificial nets and distilled by @aingrosso.bsky.social @sebgoldt.bsky.social. Leon is a fantastic collaborator + looking for PhD positions!
