Attention fluctuates over time and across contexts—how is this reflected in the brain?🧠 Fitting a dynamical systems model to fMRI data, we show that the geometry of neural dynamics along the attractor landscape reflects changes in attention. Out in @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Are you interested in detecting brain changes in individuals with higher precision over shorter intervals? Check out our new paper in Nature Communications. With Randy Buckner, @jingnandu.bsky.social, and others. Link - doi.org/10.1038/s414...

We usually assume 🐜 ants 🐜 learn views when facing their goal, but our data shows that it is not necessarily the case! We combined field experiments with a biologically constrained model to show how a two-stage neural circuit (MB -> CX) could allow this: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The joy I empathically share with authors when sending out an acceptance - I call that manuscript by proxy #editor

Headed to #CNS2026 in Vancouver for the rain and brains! Say hey if you’re there!

Extending previous findings of brain changes in a first pregnancy, a study in Nature Communications shows that a second pregnancy uniquely alters women’s brains, involving both a further fine-tuning of first-pregnancy effects and distinct changes in other networks. #Neuroskyence #medsky 🧪

Brain scans of young horses show that prolonged contact with their mothers supports brain development, social behaviour, and lower stress, reports @natcomms.nature.com: spklr.io/63325D4ulh #AnimalBehaviour #AnimalWelfare

The neuroscience team at Nature Communications is hiring a new editor to be based in either Shanghai or Pune with experience in computational neuroscience or neuroimaging! springernature.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/de-DE/Spring...

Just ahead of the year of the horse - the most detailed horse brain atlas to date and preliminary evidence for default mode network organization!

Very happy to see this last thesis paper in press @natcomms.nature.com! We combine intracranial EEG with multimodal MRI to study how interregional similarity in neurophysiology relates to different network scales ⚡ 🧠 Full story 👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The biochemical organisation of the brain revealed through the use of fast whole-brain 3D proton MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI). Fantastic work led by @fedlucchetti.bsky.social, based on a brain imaging technique developed by Antoine Delattre-Klauser! @fbm-unil.bsky.social @snf-fns.ch

Very impressed with @didacvp.bsky.social's work in @natcomms.nature.com, the most thorough mapping of longitudinal memory-atrophy relationships in normal aging, showing both global and memory-specific associations, which grow stronger with age. Early accsess here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our new paper is out in Nature Communications! nature.com/articles/s41... We combined psychophysics, 7T fMRI, and computational modeling of vision with placebo, 5mg, and 10mg psilocybin, in the same group of participants, to clarify the computational mechanisms of psychedelics. 🧵

Dance styles engage the brain in different ways depending on the movements, aesthetics, and emotions associated with the dance, according to a study in Nature Communications. go.nature.com/4i8eLO2 #Neuroskyence 🧪

Reduced brain structural similarity is associated with maturation, neurobiological features, and clinical status in schizophrenia www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🧠Out now @natcomms.nature.com ! Brain changes linked to childhood maltreatment are among the field's most published findings. Yet, we find extensive replication failure of gray matter correlates in three large cohorts (N=3225), consistent across subsamples, models and operationalizations🧵

📢 The new cross-journal Collection “Lifespan changes in the human brain” with @commsbio.nature.com, @natcomms.nature.com, @natneuro.nature.com, and Scientific Reports is now open for submissions! 📭 🌍 Learn more: www.nature.com/collections/... #Neuroscience #Brain #Lifespan #Neuroimaging

Food aromas stimulate smell receptors in the nose but are often mistaken for tastes. A study in Nature Communications shows that aromas induce taste-like patterns in the insular cortex. These results explain the illusion and the prominent role of odours in food reward. 🧪

Excited to share my first postdoc project in collaboration with @jseubert.bsky.social and @margaveldhuizen.bsky.social , now published with @natcomms.nature.com, where we describe a potential mechanism for flavour integration in the insula. #NeuroSkyence #FlavourScience doi.org/10.1038/s414... 1/10

I am very excited to let you know that my first PhD study has now been published in Nature Communications. 🧠📄 See the link to the article or read a summary in the post below! ⬇️ #alzheimersdisease #tau #amyloidbeta #neuroimaging #MRI #PET

Developmental cognitive neuroscientists - I'll be attending #FluxCongress2025 in Dublin this week. Say hello!

Now published 🍾🎉

Excited to share our new paper w/ @cibaker.bsky.social in @natcomms.nature.com linking active vision & memory! We provide evidence that gaze reinstatement & neural reactivation are deeply related phenomena that jointly reflect the experiences constructed during recall. doi.org/10.1038/s414... 🧵1/9

Decade + long work at UNC here - we longitudinally link prefrontal thickness peaks at 12 months to 8-12 yr working memory performance + activation!

Tremor is a common symptom across many neurological disorders. But is there a shared tremor circuit across disorders - one that could guide treatment, regardless of diagnosis? We think: yes. Our study is out now in @natcomms.nature.com: 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵 A thread.

www.nature.com/articles/s41... Excited to see this out in @natcomms.nature.com today! This paper builds on the lab's work on self-regulation of arousal through pupil-based biofeedback. We assessed several markers of cortical and cardiac arousal in a pure self-regulation and dual task setting.

“Human V4 size predicts crowding distance”. @jankurzawski.bsky.social, now Assistant Professor at U Maastricht, led a big effort over a few years. We used individual differences in object recognition and the size of brain maps to identify a perceptual bottleneck. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hey Arcuate freaks and geeks! I first contacted Erin in 2019. I was working on my PhD in France on communication correlates of homologous language regions in primates. But what about their interconnections? The article: rdcu.be/eifzU

Had a great time speaking with Sydney about our most recent paper out now in @natcomms.nature.com @macwoodburn.bsky.social . Paper link here: rdcu.be/ehbOy

It's shocking how little is known about the brainstem red nucleus. In our new paper “The human brainstem’s red nucleus was upgraded to support goal-directed action” out now in @naturecomms.bsky.social we show that current thinking on the red nucleus is in need of a serious upgrade. rdcu.be/ehbOy
