Hi !

Thank you for visiting this corner of the Internet !

The website

Goal here is to efficiently share serious thoughts, in informal tone.
Writing in this concise style helps :-)
Also an ideal format to share short tutorials on things that perplexed me.
Also useful to dump random assortment of thoughts.

Most importantly, convenient platform to host open-access PDFs.

The author

Hugo here. Postdoctoral researcher, focused on predictive coding - a promising brain theory that might explain decades of seemingly disparate results in neuroscience.

Neurobiologist by training, but advocate for strong theory-driven approach to experiments.
Did experimental work in vision during PhD, now doing experimental work on psychiatric conditions and treatments.
Theoretical interests encompass all things neural network-related. Details on my résumé.

Also play the piano for a hobby - picked up weightlifting recently.
