55. Predictive Processing and Flexible Control of Behaviour (with Prof. Sonja Hofer)
In today's episode we are thrilled to be joined by Professor Sonja Hofer, Group Leader at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre in UCL. The Hofer Lab researches the neural basis of sensory perception and sensory-guided decision-making. We discuss the latest paper released in her lab, preprint lead by Shohei Furutachi on Prediction Errors and how the brain functions as a prediction machine to help us efficiently navigate the world. We also discuss the new direction her lab is taking on flexible control of fear and anxiety-related behaviour, as well as decision-making, touching on the work carried out by the collaborative International Brain Lab.
We would like to thank SWC for awarding Neuroverse their Public Engagement Grant. We aim to keep encouraging versatility, criticality and creativity in discussions!
