Welcome
Ahoi hoi there and welcome to my website. My name is Peer and I’m a Research Assistant Professor at Northwestern University and a research affiliate in cognitive and computational (auditory) neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence and Data Analyses, 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 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.
