About Me
Ryszard is a neuroscientist specialising in the neural mechanisms of prediction, attention, and memory. His work combines empirical research methods from cognitive and systems neuroscience with computational modelling. He completed his doctorate at the Berlin School of Mind and Brain in 2013, followed by postdoctoral training in leading labs including University College London, Oxford University, City University Hong Kong, the Max Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics, and the European Neuroscience Institute. He established his research group at the Free University Berlin in 2022 and joined faculty of Maastricht University in 2024. In his free time he enjoys experimental and adventurous music of all genres.

Auditory and Cognitive Neuroscience and the State of Audio Technology
A Multi-Disciplinary Panel Discussion14:00 - 14:50 UTC | Tuesday 12th November 2024 | Bristol 2BeginnerIntermediateAdvancedAs Dr Susan Rogers says, auditory science and brain science attract similar kinds of thinkers — those who are ok with imagining the mechanism and process. One of the most fascinating areas of neuroscience is the emerging theoretical framework known as ‘predictive processing’ which describes the brain as essentially a prediction machine which is a combination of ideas from psychology or neuroscience, machine learning and information theory. Fundamentally, every technology we develop in the audio industry is an interface with the brain. In recent years, advances in understanding how the brain works give us opportunities to discover novel approaches to […]
