Perceptual decision-makers often display a constant rate of errors independent of evidence
strength. These 'lapses' are treated as a nuisance arising from noise tangential to the …

Animals use sensory information to move toward more favorable conditions. Drosophila
larvae can move up or down gradients of odors (chemotax), light (phototax), and …

Anchoring goals to spatial representations enables flexible navigation but is challenging in
novel environments when both representations must be acquired simultaneously. We …

Internal representations are thought to support the generation of flexible, long-timescale
behavioral patterns in both animals and artificial agents. Here, we present a novel …

Many psychotherapy interventions have a large evidence base and can help a substantial
number of people with psychiatric symptoms. However, we still have little understanding of …

Sensory systems relay information about the world to the brain, which enacts behaviors
through motor outputs. To maximize information transmission, sensory systems discard …

Learning skilled behaviors requires intensive practice over days, months, or years.
Behavioral hallmarks of practice include exploratory variation and long-term improvements …

We develop a computational model of human aging that generates individual health
trajectories with a set of observed health attributes. Our model consists of a network of …

Dopamine is hypothesized to convey error information in reinforcement learning tasks with
explicit appetitive or aversive cues. However, during motor skill learning feedback signals …

We previously proposed a Bayesian model of multisensory integration in spatial orientation
