My name is Peer and I’m currently a self-employed freelancer/contractor and research affiliate in cognitive and computational neuroscience & Artificial Intelligence, partly affiliated with the Montréal Neurological Institute & Hospital (MNI) located at McGill University, with the International Laboratory for Brain, Music and Sound Research (BRAMS) which is jointly run by the Université de Montréal & McGill University & the Senseable Intelligence Group at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research. Additionally, I’m part of the BIDS, Neuromod, ReproNim, OHBM SEA-SIG teams and the European AI Alliance initiative.
In terms of research, I’m interested in generalization in biological and artificial agents and the potentially underlying transformations as a basis for intelligent adaptive behavior. I tackle these questions using MRI, EEG, behavior and artificial neural networks, with a special emphasis on data analysis approaches (e.g., pattern analyses, multimodal data integration, naturalistic paradigms, alignment methods & statistical learning) as open, transparent and reproducible as possible. Furthermore, I’m highly invested in education & outreach, fair access & utilization of knowledge, as well as responsible & sustainable science.
