Research Interests

Causality and Machine Learning
Machine Learning and Deep Learning for Neuroscience
Neuroscience for Deep Learning
and Machine Learning for Movement/Meta-Science

Dr. Kording's research has one single focus, data that matters. Early research in the lab focused on computational neuroscience and in particular movement. But as the approaches matured, the focus has more been on discovering ways in which new data sources as well as emerging data analysis can enable awesome possibilities. The current focus is on Causality in Data science applications - how do we know how things work if we can not randomize? Our style of working is transdisciplinary, we collaborate on virtually every project.
