Fluctuation-learning relationship in recurrent neural networks - Nature Communications
Spontaneous neural activity has been experimentally linked to learning ability. Here, the authors derive theoretical formulae showing that higher variance along task-relevant directions accelerates le...

Generalizing the central dogma as a cross-hierarchical principle of biology | Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
The central dogma of molecular biology, as originally proposed by Crick, asserts that information passed into protein cannot flow back out. This principle has been interpreted as underpinning modern u...

As I just started bluesky, I post a few of my recent papers:
"A simple model for how species in soil shape their environment in a way that benefits their growth" Physical Review Research, 2025

Riz Fernando Noronha, Kim Sneppen,&KK
Modeling soil as a living system: Feedback between microbial activity and spatial structure
Soil is a complex, dynamic material with physical properties that depend on its biological content. We propose a cellular automaton model for self-organizing soil structure, where soil aggregates serv...

Excited to share our latest paper published in PNAS!
We introduced a new theoretical framework, "evolutionary dynamical-systems game theory," to explain how rules for sustainable resource use self-organize.

Social institutions are systems of shared norms and rules that regulate people’s behaviors, often emerging without external enforcement. They provi...
