    Christof Koch (Allen Institute for Brain Sciences), “Integrated Information Theory – Or Why Consciousness is Fundamentally Distinct from Intelligence”

    Hot Topics in Intelligence Research
    13 June, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
    MAR 2.057

    Humans not only can act intelligently in the world but consciously experience it, such as the delectable taste of Nutella, the sharp sting of an infected tooth, or the terror and ecstasy of a near-death experience. I will discuss progress achieved in tracking the footprints of conscious experiences to the posterior regions of the cerebral cortex,

    Oren Forkosh (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem), ” Behavior, Personality, Social Structure, and Emotions in Freely Behaving Groups of Mice and Other Animals”

    Hot Topics in Intelligence Research
    14 June, 2024 @ 2:15 pm - 3:15 pm
    MAR 2.057

    Abstract: In recent years, the study of animal behavior in neuroscience has seen a significant shift towards more naturalistic and less intrusive methods. It is under these conditions that the true spectrum of animal behavior can be exhibited, free from the artificial constraints and stressful conditions often imposed by traditional laboratory settings. In this talk, I will focus

    Brian Scholl (Yale University), “Visual Intelligence: On the Unexpected Sophistication of Perception “

    Hot Topics in Intelligence Research
    20 June, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
    MAR 2.057

    It is natural to think of vision as relatively primitive, compared to the richness of higher-level cognition. But recent work has revealed how perception is unexpectedly sophisticated along several related dimensions.  First, recent work suggests that visual processing spontaneously extracts not only simple features such as color, shape, and motion, but also properties more associated

    Katja Liebal (Universität Leipzig), “Comparative Approach to Human Cognition: Possibilities and Challenges”

    Hot Topics in Intelligence Research
    27 June, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
    MAR 2.057

    Aiming to understand human psychology and what makes humans “unique” benefits from a frame of reference against which to assess it. Comparing human psychology with that of other animals, particularly our closest relatives, nonhuman primates, can provide such a frame of reference and thereby contribute to identifying the defining characteristics of the human species. Studying

    Caleb Weinreb (Harvard Medical School), “A Seconds-Long Timescale in Naturalistic Behavior Structures Neural Dynamics”

    Thursday Morning Talk
    4 July, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

    A core task of animal cognition is to carve the world up into relevant contextual states – based on sensory input, internal drives, and awareness of one’s own recent behavior – and then hold these state assignments in working memory as guides for action and anchors for learning. By training animals to perform asks with

    Marta Halina (University of Cambridge), “Intuitive Physics in Nonhuman Animals”

    Distinguished Speaker Series
    4 July, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

    Abstract: Comparative psychologists have spent the last few decades examining whether nonhuman animals understand the physical world in a way that is similar to humans. Broadly, human intuitive physics is thought to include a collection of abilities, such as knowing that solid objects continue to exist even when no longer perceived and that objects tend

    Ralf M. Haefner (University of Rochester, NY), “How We Move Our Eyes To Collect Information”

    Thursday Morning Talk
    25 July, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
    MAR 2.057

    Abstract Collecting new information about the outside world is a key aspect of brain function. In the context of vision, we move our eyes multiple times per second to accumulate evidence about a scene. Prior studies have suggested that this process is goal-directed and close to optimal. Here, we show that this process of seeking
