Slow waves during sleep are fundamental for neural homeostasis and are impaired in neurodegenerative diseases. But what about sleep-like slow waves during wakefulness? Are these slow waves altered in Parkinson's disease? Are these slow waves uncovering psychosis?

🤔How does the human brain predict unexpected sounds? Our new study shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t work as a single unit. Instead, the orbitofrontal and lateral prefrontal cortex make distinct, time-sensitive contributions. #iEEG #BrainLesion #OFC #LPFC doi.org/10.1101/2025...

We are hiring! We have open PhD and postdoc positions in Bern. Join us to study sleep/wake circuits, and/or auditory functions with iEEG/EEG #iEEG #Neurojobs Postdoc: neuro.inf.unibe.ch/menu/announc... PhD: neuro.inf.unibe.ch/menu/announc...

Have a look at @neuromorphicboki.bsky.social tour de force: leveraging dynamical independence on #EEG to quantify *and* describe emergent dynamics under different anaesthetics! For #consciousness, less can be more: conscious states show lower emergence but more structured emergent dynamics. 🧠🧪

🧠 Paper out! We investigated how hippocampal and cortical ripples support memory during movie watching. We found that: 🎬 Hippocampal ripples mark event boundaries 🧩 Cortical ripples predict later recall Ripples may help transform real-life experiences into lasting memories! rdcu.be/eui9l
