My research

I’m a fifth-year PhD student in the Cognitive Neuroscience & Machine Learning lab at Johns Hopkins University, advised by Dr Michael Bonner.

What I’m working on now

I’m currently investigating the statistical structure of large-scale neural datasets containing visual cortex responses to natural images.

Spoiler: we find that cortical representations have scale-free covariance spectra throughout the visual hierarchy, suggesting that stimulus-related information is distributed over many latent dimensions, orders of magnitude larger than typically expected from fMRI data.

Check out our preprint (Universal scale-free representations in human visual cortex) for more details! Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :)
