Our group has been looking at beta bursts for the last 5 years, but we do it a little differently than most - we group into types them based on their waveforms. In this open access article we lay out why and what we think this might mean journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... #neuroskyence

Fab time at #MEGNord - a smorgasbord of both research & sandwiches! Laminar MEG, fetal OPM, & the wonders of the cerebellum were highlights, as were all the lovely folks I got to meet 🧠 ✨

As a grapheme synesthete always trying to convince people it wasn't made up as a kid, adult me is thrilled to see this super cool work 👁️🌈

Distinct Roles of Deep and Superficial Cortical Layers in Tone Prediction, Comparison, and Adaptation in Human Auditory Cortex https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.11.24.687809v1

Excited to share that the main work of my PhD has been published! We found that having control over pain makes expectations more precise, and changes pain perception. This is accompanied by activation changes in the PAG, SMA and ACC. You can read the full version of the paper here: rdcu.be/eQy6X

Anyone else going to #MEGNord at Aarhus next week? 🇩🇰 Interested in predictive coding of touch from sound, beta & gamma dynamics, or somatosensory echoes? 🧠 Boy do I have the poster for you! Come say hi 😊

What happens if you hook up an energy-efficiency optimising RNN on active vision input? It learns predictive remapping and path integration into allocentric scene coordinates. Now out in patterns: www.cell.com/patterns/ful...

More exciting psychophysics suggesting that imagery instantiates sensory representations through suppression, not activation: psycnet.apa.org/record/2026-.... This paper demonstrated similar effects: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37782827/ Could this explain decreased activation and increased decoding?

🚨 New preprint! One idea, many ways to say it – but does your brain track those options while you speak? Using LLMs, we put this to the test. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... We show for the 1st time that the brain represents multiple alternatives simultaneously in both listening and speaking. 🧵

Do you like RSA analysis, M/EEG and Bayes? Then you'll love Variational RSA for M/EEG, by recently completed PhD student @alexlepauvre.bsky.social from Lucia Melloni's group. It's a method and SPM toolbox for multivariate analysis of M/EEG data. arxiv.org/pdf/2511.01784 . 🧵 [1/4]

Delighted to share our new preprint! We show that rhythmic light stimulation produces multiplexed oscillatory responses at fundamental and harmonic frequencies that are spatially, temporally, and functionally distinct. Read on for the details [1/6] www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #neuroskyence

New preprint with amazing work from @nchalas.bsky.social: How does respiration influence (un-)predictable near-threshold perception? MEG, arousal modulation, excitability states, respiration phase-resolved connectivity changes - it's all there :) #neuroskyence www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Super happy to share my very first first-author paper out in @sfnjournals.bsky.social! We show content-specific predictions are represented in an alpha rhythm. It’s been a beautiful, inspiring, yet challenging journey. Huge thanks to everyone, especially @peterkok.bsky.social @jhaarsma.bsky.social

New paper: Working memory readout varies with frontal theta rhythms. A theta traveling wave swept across the frontal cortex like radar, modulating performance of a working memory task. Because cognition is rhythmic. www.cell.com/neuron/abstr... #neuroscience @picowerinstitute.bsky.social

Decoding performance (MVPA) better for OPM-MEG than SQUID-MEG 😎. The improved spatial specificity of OPM-MEG due to the reduced brain-sensor distance is key. And more sensors (beyond 40) don't improve decoding. Preprint from our recent @thechbh.bsky.social study: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

In sum, the astrocyte ensemble provides a slow, multiday dimension to memory processing, complementing fast neuronal activity. They may ensure that only selected experiences become stable memories. 8/8 Read the full paper: nature.com/articles/s41... Tools: addgene.org/Jun_Nagai/

Ever slam on the brakes after seeing a speed trap? Or better yet, slow down ahead in anticipation? In our new paper w/ @anask07.bsky.social in @cp-iscience.bsky.social, we use #iEEG to study the neural basis of reactive and proactive control in medial and lateral PFC. tinyurl.com/4bbwbffv

Thanks to @cfaa.bsky.social for having me speak at their AI symposium, & @heasutherland.com for joining me in our panel session on the science and considerations around AI use across different human-computer interactions. Glad to have met some lovely experts across a range of sectors using AI! ✈️ 👩‍💻 ⚓

I'm thrilled to share that our new paper is now published in Psychophysiology (Open Access): onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... @zacndr.bsky.social @teamlabuda.bsky.social @fraferri.bsky.social @danlikesbrains.bsky.social

Introducing hMFC: A Bayesian hierarchical model of trial-to-trial fluctuations in decision criterion! Now out in @plos.org Comp Bio. led by Robin Vloeberghs with @anne-urai.bsky.social Scott Linderman Paper: desenderlab.com/wp-content/u... Thread ↓↓↓ #PsychSciSky #Neuroscience #Neuroskyence

I’m super excited to finally put my recent work with @behrenstimb.bsky.social on bioRxiv, where we develop a new mechanistic theory of how PFC structures adaptive behaviour using attractor dynamics in space and time! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Does predictive coding work in SPACE or in TIME? Most neuroscientists assume TIME, i.e. neurons predict their future sensory inputs. We show that in visual cortex predictive coding actually works across SPACE, just like the original Rao+Ballard theory #neuroscience www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

Excellent weekend at #HTLGI25 enjoying some in-tents debates on philosophy, neuroscience, and AI, in London. Highlights included Alex O'Connor hosting a vibrant discussion ft. Karl Friston & Susan Schneider on the structure of consciousness, and Hilary Lawson's views on language and reality👌

My first #BACN conference was brilliant - from sensory representations to rhythmic stimulation... and from touch to space-time! Happy to have met some wonderful minds and already looking forward to Brighton next year! 🧠

Behold, the first preprint from my PhD! A novel theoretical model proposing that ASMR's neural mechanism and therapeutic potential involves predictive coding of CT-touch in peripersonal space. 🧠 doi.org/10.1101/2025...

New preprint...and this one is truly EPIC 🚨. Using a large group of patients with depression and healthy controls (N>800), we show differences in the functional segregation of insular subnetworks. And we can use it to classify! Led by @glassybrain.bsky.social #neuroskyence 🩺 osf.io/preprints/ps...

Our multi-sensory integration Neuro-AI paper is now published in J Neurosci www.jneurosci.org/content/earl...

We make predictions based on general knowledge and/or specific memories. Different brain areas are active when these distinct predictions are violated – and hippocampus selectively responds to prediction errors based on episodic memory. Cool work by @chrismbird.bsky.social @ayab.bsky.social et al!

I'm looking forward to speaking about the human in human-AI teaming at the @cfaa.bsky.social symposium next month; touching on topics of prediction, decision-making, and trust, informed by neuroscience, in relation to safe and effective autonomy.
