​Our new paper on auditory processing in NREM sleep is online! We study how iERP and HFA responses in the temporal lobe are modulated by slow waves of sleep: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Congratulations to Sigurd Alnes for his brilliant work and to the entire team!

What happens in the brain when we manipulate our thoughts? We asked 30 epilepsy patients to mentally invert short melodies. Intracerebral #iEEG recordings suggest brain synchrony and sensory inhibition are key for mental manipulation: doi.org/10.1101/2025... #neuroskyence #musicscience

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
