Now out in final form in Current Biology! 🎉 More object information ≠ more alignment: DNNs track the brain's mid-level, texture-like image statistics, not its object signals. Free access for 50 days: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New preprint: brain alignment in DNNs is almost complete within the first 3% of training, while classification performance is still low. The features involved in classification are largely independent of those that predict the brain (@_niklasmueller , @IrisGroen , @marcelge )

CCN 2028 will be hosted in North America again! We invite researchers & institutions to submit a proposal for 2028. Organizing chairs don't just host — they help shape CCN's organizational and scientific identity. Submit your proposal 👇 2026.ccneuro.org/host-ccn-propo… #CCN2028

We believe visual neuroscience is undergoing a paradigm shift — and the Beyond Binding exchange in @TrendsCogSci makes it visible. Five papers, excellent critics, and a discussion that sharpened and nuanced our argument.
