Our group uses computer simulations and mathematical analyses to understand learning, information processing and activity dynamics of brain networks. We use these models to investigate how neural circuits work in the healthy state, how their dynamics deteriorate in neurological disorders, and how their dynamics and information processing may be best restored by treatments. The research in our group is performed in close collaboration with experimental neuroscientists within the MRC Unit, at the University of Oxford, and beyond. Our work focuses on three central themes. First, we investigate models of learning and information processing in the cerebral cortex. We seek a fundamental common principle describing computations in different areas of the cortex performing diverse functions. We are particularly interested in the predictive coding framework, which assumes that cortical areas build probabilistic models of the world and use this model to infer the most appropriate behaviour.
