« Encoding of social hierarchy learning signals at the cellular level in Human » Investigated the neural coding of social hierarchy at the single-neuron level in humans using intracranial microelectrode recordings. Processed and interpreted single-neuron data (spike sorting, event-related analysis) from amygdala and hippocampus. Applied computational models (reinforcement learning, prediction error, uncertainty) to neural and behavioral data.
