I will be at #ICRL2026 in Rio to present our work on model-guided microstimulation.
Poster session: Thursday, 23 April, 10.30am - 1pm at pavilion 3, poster nr. 1620

Three years ago, I built a website called Egyptians in AI Research. Today, that project has grown into Egyptian Researchers in Computer Science thanks to the help of @mohamedmustfaaa!
I wrote a blog post on how it grew, and why it expanded beyond AI.

🚀 Excited to share a major update to our “Mixture of Cognitive Reasoners” (MiCRo) paper!
We ask: What benefits can we unlock by designing language models whose inner structure mirrors the brain’s functional specialization?

🧠 New preprint: we show that model-guided microstimulation can steer monkey visual behavior.

Very happy to be part of this project: @melikahnd_1 has done a great job of using vision-language-models to predict the behavior of people with dyslexia. A first step toward modeling various disease states using artificial neural networks.

I've been arguing that #NeuroAI should model the brain in health *and* in disease -- very excited to share a first step in this direction from @melikahnd_1: inducing dyslexia in vision-language-models via targeted perturbations of visual-word-form units (analogous to human VWFA)

As part of #CCN2025 our satellite event on Monday will explore how we can model the brain as a physical system, from topography to biophysical detail -- and how such models can potentially lead to impactful applications neuroailab.github.io/modeling-the-p…. Join us!

Hi, we will have three NeuroAI postdoc openings (3 years each) to work with Sebastian Musslick (@smusslick), Pascal Nieters and myself on task-switching, replay, and visual information routing.
Reach out if you are interested in any of the above, I'll be at CCN next week!
