Our new paper, now published in @natcomms.nature.com , asks a simple question: when two tasks share a common structure, does the brain learn them more efficiently? Surprisingly, this was not the case. Thread below (1/7) rdcu.be/eSwvU

'Robust circular cluster-based statistics for respiration-brain coupling' New preprint, and what a way to welcome @teresaberther.bsky.social to the #neuroskyence community. With @eliobalestrieri.bsky.social, she developed CBPT for circular #bodybrain analyses. Paper: osf.io/preprints/ps... 🧵🔽

Together with Teresa Berther, @martinasaltafossi.bsky.social, @eliobalestrieri.bsky.social, and @ualsbombe.bsky.social, we have developed a pipeline which uses IAAFT-based respiration time series surrogates to then adapt gold-standard cluster permutation testing for circular (phase-binned) data.

These two projects have been brewing for a long time, and we’re thrilled to finally share them. Huge thanks to collaborators/friends for their work and patience: Clayton Hickey, Giorgio Coricelli, @eliobalestrieri.bsky.social and Damiano Grignolio.

What a great SciComm initiative by the Italian science community in Germany! 👏 Bringing kids closer to science in their native language 🥹🇮🇹 love that!

It sounds weird but... I somehow feel you.

Aaaand the paper is out on Imaging Neuroscience! 🤩 To learn about cool new (and old) features to be used in classifying M-EEG brain states, check it out: doi.org/10.1162/imag... Big thanks to all the co-authors and the reviewers for their great input 🫶

You asked for it...

Did anyone use correlations for a temporal generalisation analysis? I have a hard time finding something, but it seems straight forward (and symmetric) for my problem at hand. I want to do encoding, not decoding analyses. Pointers greatly appreciated ! #eeg

This new flow of people to BS is heartwarming... Welcome everybody! Let's show that an alternative to X is possible!

An enlightening read!

The third #preprint in 3 months, what a sequence! In this work first-authored by @janafehring.bsky.social, we probe new features characterizing cortical hierarchy and its changes through the #lifespan. Check it out! :D #neuroscience #neuroskyence

Happy to see our opinion piece on the dynamics of brain-body states now out in Trends in Cognitive Sciences: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Really enjoyed drawing this up with @micahgallen.com and @jgross.bsky.social! #CogSci #interoception #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky

Application deadline coming up - 14 May. Have a look if you are interested in a fully funded PhD on brain oscillations and Parkinson's. #neuroskyence #EEG #PsychSciSky

It's preprint time!!! Check out our new work led by @cstier.bsky.social exploring novel MEG features for predicting age 🧒🧑🧓 tinyurl.com/MEGphenotype

BrainGoMo: our smartphone-based brain training platform 🧠🎮 @virgobit.bsky.social's Neurofeedback app makes brain training possible anytime, anywhere, all on the smartphones! Stay tuned for more updates on BrainGoMo. #Neuroskyence #Neuroscience #neurorehabilitation #psychology youtu.be/4YOKnF6ogVM

At the WikiJournal of Science, the first article that I edited has now been published! en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJou... Two peer reviewers gave a bunch of expert input, resulting in extensive revisions and us now publishing the article. We are a Scopus-indexed scholarly journal and a COPE member.

If you are researching links between brain rhythms and behaviour, have a closer look at @mkopcanova.bsky.social s new pre-print ⬇️ doi.org/10.1101/2024... #EEG #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky /1

Excited to share the first preprint of my postdoc! We explored a novel features space to describe M-EEG timeseries. These features are highly informative in differentiating brain states, even more than canonical features like power in predefined frequency bands! :D www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New paper out with Rena Bayramova, Christian Doeller, and Roberto Bottini on the link between spontaneous eye movements and the representational geometries of conceptual spaces during verbal fluency tasks doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

Sorry guys, I have already given Joe Rogan the exclusive...

Excited to see the third chapter of my PhD thesis out. If you are interested in the emergence of low-dimensional, task-relevant representations in decision-making have a look! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The website for our WAVES '24 Summer School + Symposium in southern Italy now live - an entire week of hands-on body-brain tutorials from all branches of neuroscience. Students, PhD candidates, and everyone else can now register trough the link below. Happy to answer any questions! #neuroskyence

Hey there! As first post on BS I am thrilled to share the poster that I am presenting at SfN 2023 tomorrow, November 12th, from 1 pm EST. Pass by, or reach out for a walk-through! Beyond oscillations? The potential of a diversified characterization of brain states changes tinyurl.com/yxszckhn
