An interesting speculation about gravity.

Could gravity be evidence that the universe is a computer simulation? My new study suggests why this might be so

> Suppose the law of gravity is simply a byproduct of the universe operating under a computer-like code.

Following this week announcement by curator Carlo Ratti (CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati), about the 2025 Venice Biennale of Architecture, we’re happy to announce that fabric | ch will take part to it.
We’ll post more until May about our contribution, among many voices, to this year’s “Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Collective.” Biennale #fabricch #architecture #contemporary #planetary #intelligens #intelligence #computational #natural #material

A post-migration re-#introduction!

I’m currently a postdoc in Marlene Behrmann’s lab at Carnegie Mellon. I’m broadly interested in understanding the #psychology and #neuroscience underlying the #development of cognitive abilities such as categorization.

Recently I’ve been exploring the broader biological network that support object categorization in adults (e.g., doi.org/10.1016/j.tics.2022.09) and the #computational processes that support few-shot learning in infancy (e.g., doi.org/10.7554/eLife.74943)

doi.orgDoes the brain's ventral visual pathway compute object shape?A rich behavioral literature has shown that human object recognition is supported by a representation of shape that is tolerant to variations in an ob…

Hello I'm Duane, this is my #introduction. I'm an Assistant #Professor, currently at #mississipi State University School of #Architecture.

My research is in #Computational #Design. I build #tools to implement the #mathematics of the #SpaceGroups in design, mostly #Rhino and #grasshopper.

In addition to #Studio, I currently teach in our #BuildingTechnology sequence. Specifically Passive Systems.

I am lead #Faculty #Advisor for MSU's #SolarDecathlon Team.

I'm a #FirstGen #Academic and #worker

New #instance , new #introduction !

I am a neuroscientist based in sunny Marseille (France).

After a PhD in NYC in the lab of JL Pena, and a postdoc with Zach Mainen and the #InternationalBrainLab, I recently joined the #CNRS as a tenured researcher.

My work combines #experimental and #computational approaches to study the neural dynamics of flexible behavior in mice. My research is supported by the Simons Collaboration on the Global Brain (#SCGB).

Since I moved to a new server an #introduction

I am the director of Spinoza Centre for Neuroimaging (@spinoza), group leader at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience and professor at Utrecht University and Vrije University Amsterdam.

My research is centered on the intersection of #perception, #cognition and #neuroscience. The ultimate goals are to understand the neurophysiology of the visual system, and how neural computations result in visual perception and cognition. My research reconstructs perceptual representations of the human brain using #behaviour, #computational models, #neuroimaging (predominantly 7T fMRI), and custom-built biologically-inspired data-analysis methods (for example the pRF method).

I'm enjoying #mastodon and exited to see it grow so quickly!

#introduction

I'm a #developmental #cognitive #neuroscientist with a focus on #visual and social/affective #cognition in #infancy 🧠 👶

How do infants come to understand complex visual objects, such as for social/affective communication - e.g. #faces?

How do infants' #brains learn to represent & interpret the visual, social/affective world? 👀

To answer these, I use #neuroimaging (#EEG/#fNIRS), #behavior, & #computational tools 🧠 🤖

#introduction and my first own 🦣 #toot:

I'm a social scientist interested in #attitudes toward #immigration & #refugees, effects of #media and #PolComm, using #quantitative, #TextAsData & #computational methods. For more check: czymara.com/research

Currently, I am a #postoc at U #TelAviv & GoetheU #Frankfurt.

I'm mostly here to check new #research and recent developments in #academia, but also up for cheeky memes and bad puns.

I posted an #introduction but then moved to fediscience.org, so let me introduce myself again.

I'm a #computational neuroscientist at Boston University. I make circuit models of cognitive-emotional interaction in the #limbic system. I shifted to #Julia from Matlab recently (and I love it!).

On the birdsite I tend to post a mix of neuroscience, philosophy, history, math, literature and... not-quite-serious musings.

I'm interested in public scientific communication and education too.

Migrated to sciences.social and lost my #introduction, so:

I’m a #computational #social #scientist, primarily interested in #theoretical #models, #statistical models based on theory, and #history. Applications mostly in #international #conflict and international #order.

My wife Kristen and I are based in #Oslo, #Norway while I’m on sabbatical this year. We love to #travel and try new #cuisines, and I love to read to and play #math #games with our 6-year-old daughter.

Now that this instance is officially open, I suppose it is time for an #introduction! I'm involved in #DigitalHumanities, with a focus on #Computational Literary Studies, #French #Literature and #OpenScience. I work at #Trier University in Germany and co-direct, with Claudine @moulin, the Trier Center for Digital Humanities (@tcdh). I'm also involved in @DHd and #ADHO. – This is my personal, academically-oriented account. See also: toot.io/@christof
