After more than 5 decades of parallel development, #corticalstimulation for artificial #vision & artificial #touch is beginning to converge rdcu.be/flRzh Our new @natrevbioeng.nature.com review brings together shared principles and modality-specific strategies across both fields

Excited about our new preprint: “The illusory simplicity of the feedforward pass: evidence for the dynamical nature of stimulus encoding along the primate ventral stream” arxiv.org/abs/2604.12825 Work with Sushrut Thorat, Anna Mitola, Paolo Papale, Peter König & Tim Kietzmann 🧵 thread below

New peer-reviewed paper w/ @mheilbron.bsky.social, @predictivebrain.bsky.social & Jakub Szewczyk! Pre-onset brain encoding has been taken as evidence that brains–like LLMs–predict upcoming words. We show that the same signatures arise in systems that cannot predict. (elifesciences.org) (1/8)

After 150 years of boring wooden Galton boards, I finally fixed it! Now with lasers, bazookas, bombs, pinball bumpers, and extremely serious sci-fi hamsters. 🎯 EXTREME GALTON 👇 sachaepskamp.com/extreme_galton

📢 BREAKING! TiCS just published a paper by @lamalab.bsky.social and me that synthesizes co-registration (and related) studies of reading that resolve the apparent paradox that the eyes move faster through the text than the brain can understand it!

I’m excited to share our new work, led by grad student Rajvi Agravat, using iEEG in 54 pediatric, adolescent, & young adult participants with deep neural network audio source separation to show how the brain prioritizes speech in audio containing both speech and music www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Out now in #JNeurosci! We used direct recordings and stimulation in human pulvinar to probe its causal role during naming from pictures, and spoken and written descriptions. We found naming-selective responses and stim-induced pure anomia. doi.org/10.1523/JNEU... #NeuroSkyence #iEEG 🧵👇

Our position paper on the #FIN The neural basis of our mind’s eye: clinical and neuroimaging evidence converge on a distributed brain network organized around the #Fusiform_Imagery_Node (FIN) in the left fusiform gyrus. #Neuroscience #Neuroimaging #CognitiveNeurology #MentalImagery #Aphantasia

I just whipped up this little #QuartoPub site last week that demonstrates how I teach p-values/hyp-testing through simulation both with live OJS and with #rstats, and I think it's super neat! It has examples for diff-in-means, diff-in-props, and regression slopes nullworlds.andrewheiss.com #statsky

Found one in the wild! Models of the language network in a published paper in a (presumably) predatory journal. I think I'd be concerned if a patient had four anterior temporal lobes in their lert hemisphere, it might affect their conprehension #NeuroSkyence

1/7 Can infants recognise the world around them? 👶🧠 As part of the FOUNDCOG project, we scanned 134 awake infants using fMRI. Published today in Nature Neuroscience, our research reveals 2-month-old infants already possess complex visual representations in VVC that align with DNNs.

Texas may adopt a required statewide reading list--& tests aligned to it. There would be benefits to that approach. But there are also some big risks. More in my new post: nataliewexler.substack.com/p/is-texas-g...

Happy to be part of this new paper analyzing lesion-induced aphantasia, now accepted in Cortex. One more reason to believe that the Fusiform Imagery Node is important for the conscious experience of mental imagery. Here: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1....

Finally out in eLife!! "Early foveal cortex predicts the features of saccade targets through feedback from higher cortical areas." elifesciences.org/articles/107...

EEG requires many neurons aligned so that their electric fields can positively sum to spread up to the scalp. I made a browser-based simulator for my EEG class to visualize how "open fields" contribute to EEG recordings. dbrang.github.io/Open-Closed-... Github: github.com/dbrang/Open-...

Interpreting EEG requires understanding how the skull smears electrical fields as they propagate from the cortex. I made a browser-based simulator for my EEG class to visualize how dipole depth/orientation change the topomap. dbrang.github.io/EEG-Dipole-D... Github page: github.com/dbrang/EEG-D...

🚨 New preprint! Why do some insights from spikes translate to field potentials while others don't? In this paper we compare visual memory representations in spikes and LFPs to propose a general framework that answers this question. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 🧵 (1/10) 🧠🟦 🧠💻

Hello vision scientists & linguists! The Journal of Vision is accepting submissions for a special issue on “The Vision-Language Interface.” The deadline has been extended until June 30! jov.arvojournals.org/ss/visionlan... #neuroskyence #VisionScience #PsychSciSky

A while ago I found that people can't simultaneously recognize 2 words flashed above & below fixation. My clever students devised experiments to show that the simple serial model can't account for what happens when the 2 words form a compound (e.g. bottle + neck) authors.elsevier.com/a/1mEmD2Hx2-...
