Interested in the link between cardiovascular and mental health or, in other “words” the ❤️ and 🧠 through brain-body states? A new paper by our speaker and fellow Arno Villringer with @michaelgaebler.com and Vadim Nikulin sheds more light on these interactions: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Does fetal movement mean more than a sign of the health and well-being of the developing child? Our recent findings suggest fetal movement may also play a role in shaping maternal neurodevelopment. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Check out our new article for young readers (ages 8-15) on heart-brain interactions and interoception! 🧠🫀 I had so much fun co-writing this with @agatapatyczek.bsky.social @el-rei.bsky.social with the support of @michaelgaebler.com ✍️ 👉 Share it widely with curious young minds Yay for #scicomm ✨

🧠🫀 New from our lab on Frontiers for Young Minds: Ever wondered how the heart and brain communicate? Think the heart as the drummer 🥁 & the brain as the singer 🎤 keeping the body's band in tune! Read here (for ages 8–15): kids.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/frym.2025.1536787/full [1/2]

Exciting news: I’ve started a Humboldt Fellowship @humboldt-foundation.de! First stop: Hamburg for German training, then in January to Kiel to join Prof. Michael Skeide's group at the Faculty of Medicine of Kiel University @uni-kiel.de. Happy to connect in Hamburg and Kiel!

🚨 New paper out! Phase confusion: How inconsistent cardiac labeling obscures interoception research 🫀🧠 We unpack methodological incosistencies and propose a way forward with the HEARTS framework. In Biol. Psychol. - Open Access: 🔗 shorturl.at/YJhyn 1st paper of great @angeliacaparco.bsky.social!

It’s time to listen to Dennis Larsson talk about #heartbeat sensations in #autism at #BRNet2025 🧠🫀

How does the brain integrate artificial body extensions? Using a custom-built finger-extending exoskeleton, we show that wearable augmentations are quickly integrated into body representation, with proprioceptive space adapting to the device’s structure and function. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Attending the #BRNet2025 Conference in Utrecht, Netherlands. Will be presenting my work on interoception in autism tomorrow. Come and say hi!

🧠 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

📣 Open PhD & Postdoc Positions 📣 More info here: mariechancel.com/open-positio... or by contacting me directly !

Really pleased that this paper from my PhD has been published in Nature Scientific Reports! www.nature.com/articles/s41... We used mixed reality to explore how manipulating multisensory integration leads to dis-ownership from the body and how those experiences relate to trait dissociation

Attending the second day of the #MindBrainBody symposium in Berlin. Will be presenting a poster on interoception and heartbeat perception in autistic individuals at 15:25. Come by and say hi!
