I tried to do what we call, if I may be so bold, a "conceptual scoop"!! Pls read my story on the most overlooked form of extreme confinement of farmed animals—the routine caging of millions of dairy calves in tiny crates less than 1/10 the size of a parking spot. It's not about veal! (🧵)

Nature Sci Rep publishes incoherent AI slop. eLife publishes a paper which the reviewers didn't agree with, making all the comments and responses public with thoughtful commentary. One of these journals got delisted by Web of Science for quality concerns from not doing peer review. Guess which one?

NEW PAPER 👁️🚨 w/ @sylvainbaillet.bsky.social If you keep your eyes very still, the visual world oddly appears to "fill-in", or blend across boundaries. Filling-in over stronger boundaries requires even longer staring. Is this because involuntary microsaccades more effectively delay filling-in? (1/3)

Sensorimotor control meets visual consciousness. Our new Journal of Vision paper led by @maxlevinson.bsky.social shows that microsaccades reset visual processing & delay perceptual illusions (here, filling-in). www.neurospeed-bailletlab.org/news/zl2erl3... 🧵

1/ "A science of consciousness beyond pseudo-science and pseudo-consciousness" is out now! it was a joy to coauthor this commentary with Àlex Gómez-Marin @behaviOrganisms for @NatureNeuro, in which we try find some positive lessons in the clash over IIT www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Delighted to report the publication of our new paper with @biyuhe.bsky.social in @plosbiology.org. In the study, we find that oscillatory and non-oscillatory neural signals likely influence conscious visual perception independently. doi.org/10.1371/jour...

I made this tool that I think is pretty useful if you are running online experiments and using the OSF. It's free. And open source. And you can use other free tools with it to run an online experiment for free. pipe.jspsych.org

Is IIT a “psuedoscientific” theory? The moment I’ve always hoped for, to plug this piece w/ Clare Press and Cecilia Heyes. The 7 questions psychologists and neuroscientists can ask ourselves if we want to build better theories and interrogate our own… www.cell.com/current-biol... #neuroskyence
