PhD student @Harvard @MIT working with @ev_fedorenko @nancy_kanwisher | interested in neuroscience, language, AI | @KempnerInst @SHBTHarvard @mitbrainandcogcoltoncasto.github.io Cambridge, MAJoined December 2022
New paper with @NeuroRJ, @csinva, @SunaGuo, Gavin Mischler, Jianfeng Gao, & @NimaMesgarani: We use LLMs to generate VERY interpretable embeddings where each dimension corresponds to a scientific theory, & then use these embeddings to predict fMRI and ECoG. It WORKS!

🚨 New Preprint 🚨
Targeting intracranial electrical stimulation (ES) to network regions defined within individuals causes network-level effects
By Cyr et al.
Q: Can we use individualized network maps from precision fMRI to modulate a targeted network via ES?
A: Yes!
🧵:
New paper with @mujn1461 & @preston_lab! We propose a simple model for human memory of narratives: we uniformly sample incoming information at a constant rate. This explains behavioral data much better than variable-rate sampling triggered by event segmentation or surprisal.

What are the organizing dimensions of language processing?
We show that voxel responses are organized along 2 main axes: processing difficulty & meaning abstractness—revealing an interpretable, topographic representational basis for language processing shared across individuals.
