This looks an amazing opportunity to study consciousness with (in my opinion) the best data and in an amazing research environment! As Michael's former PhD student, I can only recommend working with him! + Grenoble is amazing 🏔️🚵🧗‍♀️⛷️☀️

#hiring Come work with us to better understand the neuronal mechanism underlying perceptual consciousness! 18 months postdoctoral position at INSERM in Grenoble, France. ⌛Application deadline 10 March 2026. euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/408445

Are you sure there’s no mosquito in the room? With @matanmazor.bsky.social, Chichi Dézier, @nfaivre.bsky.social & Louise Goupil, we study how we combine multiple sensory sources to be confident in presence and absence: While detection rely on one modality, confidence requires both channels to align!

🥳Our review of intracranial EEG research on the neural correlates of consciousness is out in eLife: elifesciences.org/reviewed-pre...! We think these methods offer a unique window on consciousness!🧠 A thread 👇

🎉 APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN 🎉 Join the MESEC Winter School 2026 in Ephesus, Turkey, March 22–28. 🗓️☀️ A week of methods, ideas, and deep dives into consciousness with an international community. Apply now and share the call. 🧠 🔗 mesec.co/event/winter...

Happy to share that our BBS target article has been accepted: “Core Perception”: Re-imagining Precocious Reasoning as Sophisticated Perceiving With Alon Hafri, @veroniqueizard.bsky.social, @chazfirestone.bsky.social & Brent Strickland Read it here: doi.org/10.1017/S014... A short thread [1/5]👇

Thrilled to share my very first publication, in Translational Psychiatry! 🧠🧪 We used invasive brain mapping to identify personalized neuromodulation targets for treatment-refractory OCD. Read it here 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #OCD #DBS #Neuroscience #Research

📣 Calling experimental, computational, or theoretical researchers! WTI's Postdoc Fellowships application is now open, offering a competitive salary, structured mentorship, world-class facilities + more: wti.yale.edu/initiatives/... Apply by November 10: apply.interfolio.com/174525 #KnowTogether

Our review on intracranial research on consciousness is now out as a preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2510.08736. I believe that intracranial recordings provide one of the most exciting avenues for research on consciousness right now! If you agree, I think you will find the review interesting 🤓

Our spotlight article on Goueytes et al. (2025) study is now online at Trends in Neurosciences: "Pre- and post-decision signals of certainty in changing minds", by P. Barttfeld, @ncomay.bsky.social, I. Embon & @guillermosolovey.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/neuro...

New position, new social media account. After 5 fantastic years in Tuebingen, I moved to @yale.edu and the @wutsaiyale.bsky.social this summer - which means that I’ll be recruiting PhD students and postdocs. Please help me to spread the word and see current opportunities below 👇

The call for commentaries on our BBS paper is out now (deadline October 15): shorturl.at/Hu3Yu. In the paper (shorturl.at/4Rbk6), we provide recommendations and outstanding issues about designing experimental paradigms, analyzing data, and reporting the results of studies on unconscious processing 👇

1/Preprint Alert🔔: Across two experiments plus a computational model, we show the visual system compresses complex scenes into summary statistics that can guide behavior without conscious access to the task-defining features. We term this the Ensemble Blindsight effect.

Two recent #sEEG studies worth checking out if you're interested in evidence accumulation, #consciousness and #metacognition: www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41... With @francoisstock.bsky.social, Dorian Goueytes, @meaperei.bsky.social, and many others!

Our #sEEG study is now published in Nature Communications: rdcu.be/eIkoG! 🧠 Key finding: We discovered neural evidence accumulation for visual perception that's independent of report preparation—recorded from >3000 channels across 3 experiments! #Neuroscience #Consciousness #OpenAccess

BBS just issued the call for commentaries, and we would LOVE to get yours!! The deadline is October 15th, and the reference number is BBS-D-24-00489R2. Looking forward to hearing what you think about our suggestions for how to study unconscious processes!

Our paper about contention and consensus in unconscious processing research is now out in Behavioral and Brain Sciences. Check out Maor's thread! Please consider sending a comment, we are interested to continue this discussion 🤓

Are you an early-career ASSC member who wants to meet peers interested in consciousness ahead of the @assc28.bsky.social conference? The @ASSC Community Building Committee has the right event for you! Join us for an online ice-breaking event on July 3. Sign up here before June 25: tally.so/r/3qMyQk

New “version of record” in @elife.bsky.social! ‬ We recorded neurons in the thalamus and subthalamic nucleus of humans and found both sensory- and perception-selective neurons with two distinct latencies! 7-year project with @nfaivre.bsky.social + @foscobernasconi.bsky.social. A short thread 👇

Hi Bluesky! I want to let you know about a cool new paper I had the honor of being a part of: Semantic priming modulates the strength and direction of the Kanizsa illusion rdcu.be/en0JZ

Through thick and thin, the ultra-resilient Ramla Msheik completed the main study of her PhD, which supports leaky evidence accumulation as a computational mechanism underlying perceptual confidence and subjective duration. Check it out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to see this out 🥳 Come check out the website and explore studies of unconscious processing!

Our UnconTrust database for studies of unconscious processing is now officially launched in an interactive website here: uncontrustdb.tau.ac.il And a paper describing the process and validation is now published in “Scientific Data”: doi.org/10.1038/s415...

... and this is our new contribution to #metacognition research, this time showing a functional overlap between evidence accumulation, confidence, and changes of mind using sEEG: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Brilliantly led by Dorian Goueytes, + @meaperei.bsky.social and many others!

Our new sEEG study is out on BioRxiv: tinyurl.com/4afh3b9n! Using 3 face detection experiments and recording from >3000 channels, we found a neural code that reflected evidence accumulation for conscious perception and perceptual confidence! 👇
