My name is Peer and I’m a Research Assistant Professor at Northwestern University in Cognitive and Computational (auditory) Neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence and Data Analyses (within the CSD Department, Cognitive Science and Interdepartmental Neuroscience PhD programs, as well as AI@Northwestern).
I'm also very lucky to be a research affiliate 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 and McGill University and the Computational Cognitive Neuroscience lab at the Max-Planck-Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science.
Additionally, I’m part of the BIDS, Neuromod, ReproNim teams and the European AI Alliance .
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.
