📣New paper out! We successfully replicated our previous work (Azizi et al., 2023), demonstrating that alpha activity is a marker of contextual changes during resting-state. w/ R. Bordas and @virginievanw.bsky.social shorturl.at/bKAFp

1/ 📢 Come study cognitive science in Paris! The Master’s program in Cognitive Science at @ENS_ULM, @psl_univ, and @EHESS_fr is now accepting applications for the next academic year. 🗓 Deadline: February 24, 2026 💻 Apply here: master-cognitive-science.ens.psl.eu/en/applicati...

A very warm (albeit wintery) welcome to @vigano.bsky.social in the Cognition & Brain Dynamics team 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇮🇹 ! We're very excited and will follow w/ team science updates of @brainthemind.bsky.social! @cea-joliot.bsky.social #NeuroSpin @unicog.bsky.social

Looking forward to talking about using VR and EEG to study the 'when' of memory with @grassocamille.bsky.social and @virginievanw.bsky.social. Thursday the 8th of January at 11.45am. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPUB...

1/n We have discovered that bees can keep track of time duration! Bees can discriminate long 🟡🟡 vs short🟡 flashes, a bit like the "dash" and "dot" of the Morse code. Check our new paper royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... and videoclip youtu.be/hsGxU65OMQk?... @preparedmindslab.bsky.social

Congrats @davidpoeppel.bsky.social it is very well deserved!

Time is relative and brains define simultaneity (TWS) and meaning (TWI) through temporal windows.

A substantial number of female physicists in the first half of the 20th century contributed to quantum physics. For the history of physics to properly recognize their work, new approaches are needed, argues Andrea Reichenberger in Nature Reviews Physics. go.nature.com/41mjQuJ #WomeninSTEM ⚛️ 🧪

Two postdoc positions in the lab within the ERC Synergy project "Chronology" in collaboration with S. Ostojic, M. Jazayeri and V. van Wassenhove @virginievanw.bsky.social . Two focuses: sound sequences representations across the brain & novel all-optical technology. Contact: [email protected]

Episode II of how are durations stored in working memory: Besides replicating our previous findings, we find that alpha power reflects a universal signature of WM load and mediates recall precision, even for abstract information like duration www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🔽 co-authors below

Our study is out! The number of durations in a sequence, not the duration of the sequence, affects its recall precision in working memory. psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-...

On this day in 1891, Wilder Penfield was born. While many know him from his Heritage Minute ("I smell burnt toast!"), Penfield revolutionized neurosurgery and mapped several regions of the brain. Let's learn more about this great Canadian doctor! 🧵1/14
