Research summary
AI-generated

Zoran Tiganj studies how the brain represents time and space, using both experimental neuroscience (for example, how neurons in the rat hippocampus encode location and elapsed time) and computational models. Recent work also examines large language models (LLMs) and other artificial neural networks, comparing how they process memory, temporal information, and decisions to how humans and biological brains do.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
