Computational & Integrative Cognitive Neuroscience

Behavior emerges from neural circuits, and understanding cognition requires models that respect both computational principles and biological constraints.

We develop neural network models constrained by circuit architecture (e.g., basal ganglia-ACC loops, hippocampal circuits) and resource-based regularization (e.g., rotational dynamics) to explain and predict the representational dynamics and geometry observed in EEG and fMRI—bridging behavior, neural population activity, and circuit-level mechanisms.

How do we build flexible cognition?
