NeuroAI PhD Candidate at McGill / Mila. Loves: 🧠 🏕️ 🏔️ 🏊🏻‍♂️ 🚴🏻‍♂️ 🏃🏻‍♂️ 🎨📚☕ https://raymondchua.github.io https://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.social/post/3mqln4pnaqk2yExcellent resources put together by my peers at @mila-quebec.bsky.social and collaborators. I've been working on Continual RL since the start of my PhD, and I wish I'd had a resource like this. Whether you're new or looking for a deep dive, this is an excellent place to start.

I'll be there presenting our work and would love to meet people working on NeuroAI, RL, computational neuroscience, and biology. Feel free to send me a message. And if you're organizing any social events, I'd love to hear about them!

A major challenge in continual reinforcement learning is balancing: • plasticity (learning new things) • stability (not forgetting old ones) 🧵 1/1508 Jun 2026 14:55 +0000at://did:plc:mbk4jsqbrs3siuu34clmlznk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnrwupfb7k2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.social/post/3mhr4bwrvr222After a fantastic week of discussions at COSYNE, I’m excited to now be in Amsterdam for the Winter School on Foundation Models. I am interesting in developing foundation models that can continuously learn, adapt, and reason. If you’re around, I would love to connect! 🇳🇱23 Mar 2026 22:29 +0000at://did:plc:mbk4jsqbrs3siuu34clmlznk/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhr4bwrvr222https://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.social/post/3mgwztwz3j226Excited to present my poster at COSYNE 2026! We explore whether Successor Features (SFs) in reinforcement learning exhibit properties similar to hippocampal place cells, using analytical tools from neuroscience.

Rather than burying the experiments that did not work, we should embrace them and consider the results in their entirety.

As he put it, there are no authorities in Science and anyone can question anyone else. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_PepvnqIfU05 Mar 2025 19:43 +0000at://did:plc:mbk4jsqbrs3siuu34clmlznk/app.bsky.feed.post/3ljnqhzyybk2khttps://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.social/post/3lh2ef63hs22fLooking forward to this new NeuroAI symposium! 🧠 [contains quote post or other embedded content]31 Jan 2025 15:56 +0000at://did:plc:mbk4jsqbrs3siuu34clmlznk/app.bsky.feed.post/3lh2ef63hs22fhttps://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.social/post/3lgsz7tsdek2hThrilled to see this paper finally published! The manifold representations in Figure 1H were a key inspiration behind the visualization of Successor Features (SF) in our recent SF paper. It's fascinating how insights from neuroscience can help us interpret representations learned in deep RL.

But is our future solely built on these models? What about alternative techniques? How do we keep our scientific ecosystem diverse? As a community, where do we see the future of NeuroAI?13 Jan 2025 00:02 +0000at://did:plc:mbk4jsqbrs3siuu34clmlznk/app.bsky.feed.post/3lflgoyy4l22ohttps://bsky.app/profile/raymondrchua.bsky.social/post/3ldrbtix5tc2nSomething to think about if you are pursuing Non-LLM fundamental research during your PhD.

I will be spending a few days in San Francisco before NeurIPS and would love to connect with others who share similar research interests! Whether it’s over coffee or a run, I’m happy to chat about NeuroAI, RL, or anything in between.
