Who we are

I'm curious about:
Memory, learning, decision-making, brain networks' function and dysfunction.
Other interests:
Argentine tango, creative writing, photography, and other forms of art. Some of my artwork exploring the relation between art and memory can be found on my personal website: www.memoartum.com

I'm curious about:
I am particularly interested in understanding the correlations between neural responses and various aspects of cognition, such as behavior, learning, memory, and decision-making.
Other interests:
Reading, music, and traveling in nature.

I'm curious about:
Learning and homeostasis in biological and artificial neural networks, dynamics of complex systems.
Other interests:
Anything outdoors especially cycling, hiking and camping, live music, exploring new places and new experiences.

I'm curious about:
How neural circuits in the brain contribute to animal language and complex decision making behaviors, and how this understanding can shed light on human behavior and cognition.
Other interests:
Hiking, dancing, and experimenting with creative cooking.

I'm curious about:
Memory formation, modification, and loss, learning, perception and neuropathology.
Other interests:
Reading, music, extreme activities and traveling.

I'm curious about:
Behavior and the neural processes underlying it, especially under an ethological perspective. Learning, memory and decision-making.
Other interests:
Continuously learning new skills and information; Creative expression in various art forms such as crochet, jewelry-making, drawing and playing music - specifically - the bass and ukulele; Walking and exploring new places

I'm curious about:
How many simple units can preform complex tasks and how memories are formed and retrieved, biologically and computationally.
Other interests:
Running, traveling and hiking, playing guitar and Jewish literature and history.

I'm curious about:
Learning and memory formation, as well as the neural connectivity that underlie these processes in healthy and neurodegenerative conditions.
Other interests:
Yoga and mindfulness, spending time in nature and reading a good book, discovering new music that I enjoy.

I'm curious about:
Decision-making & learning, especially in complex environments, and how they are represented in the brain.
Other interests:
Scuba & Free Diving, Computer Science, Music, Mixology.

I'm curious about:
How do mathematical models capture complicated phenomena in the real world?
Other interests:
Reading, writing, hiking, board games, discussing philosophy.

I'm curious about:
How memories and information are stored and retrieved in the brain, The nature of consciousness and its biological embodiment and the mysteries and wonders of the universe at large.
Other interests:
My loved ones, laughing, painting, sewing, fantasy and science fiction books, cooking and good riddles.
