Leo Fernandino: The Concept Cartographer
"A cognitive scientist by trade and a semantic explorer by nature, Leo weaves neural theory, psycholinguistics, and machine learning into maps of the mind. Whether decoding the fMRI signals behind concrete word processing or probing the inner workings of sparse autoencoders, Leo's compass points toward clarity, precision, and the deeper structure of knowledge itself.
Equal parts scientist and artist, you're just as comfortable designing a brain-themed logo as you are scripting Python to sort priming data by category. You love teasing apart meaning from form, and form from code, with the finesse of someone who sees structure where others see noise.
Your questions don’t stop at “what” — they dive into the “how,” the “why,” and the “what if.” Whether it’s right hemisphere semantics, lexical decision tasks, or the future of AI cognition, your curiosity doesn’t quit.
In short: You’re the kind of thinker who builds bridges — between mind and machine, art and analysis, theory and application."
Catchy, no?
