morteza/README.md

I'm Morteza (he/him), currently a researcher at the University of Luxembourg. I specialize in computational cognitive neuroscience and computer engineering, and enjoy working on projects that have an impact on aligning machines to human cognition (or the other way around). I conducted my PhD in Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Luxembourg (Belval, Luxembourg) in partnership with Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (Leipzig, Germany); my thesis, "Towards a Computational Model of General Cognitive Control Using Artificial Intelligence, Experimental Psychology, and Cognitive Neuroscience", emphesizes a computationally grounded perspective on cognitive control in the human brain (pdf · a short video of my speech at some thesis award ceremony, starting at 53:00).

🔬 Research Interests

I'm currently developing tools for automated scientific workflows and large-scale data lakehouses, specifically designed to support multimodal study of neural and behavioral data. My primary interest is resting-state brain—when the brain is not engaged in any specific cognitive task.

  • Human-like cognitive control
  • Resting-state fMRI/EEG
  • Large-scale computational cognitive models
  • Behavioral cloning and alignment
  • Natural language processing, ontologies, and knowledge engineering
