If you missed it, here’s the interim Principal talking about substantial future job cuts at University of Dundee. He refers to the number of job losses recommended in the recovery plan. This is 390FTE with 340FTE via redundancies. We believe redundancies are not necessary. #SaveHE #SaveDundeeUni

Yesterday our interim Principal, gave evidence to the Education, Children and Young People Committee. He stated that he had never ruled out redundancies. Judge for yourself.

A great videos with excellent contributions from across the UK. Vote now. Show your solidarity for the national ballot to save our universities. #SaveHE #WeAreTheUniversity

We (I and @willenjoy.bsky.social) created a toolbox for simulations of EEG/MEG because we needed to simulate data. Our initial aim was to simulate connectivity. For this short clip, I simulated two sources with phase connectivity using our toolbox. #brainmovie meegsim.readthedocs.io/en/stable/in...

Stats on #bodybrain #neuroskyence data can become non-trivial pretty quickly: Anything beyond t-tests on 'systole vs diastole' or 'insp vs exp' will include some form of phase binning, so we need adequate surrogates for robust permutation stats. Plus, these are not available for circular data.

Our members have voted to support industrial action to fight against job cuts passed today! In the ballot our 72% of members were in favour of strike action, and 90% in favour of action short of strike. Turnout was 58%. Thank you to all members, reps and officials for helping us get the vote out.

We’re looking for a postdoc to join our Max Planck group in Germany some time in 2026. If you have computational and/or neuroimaging expertise, and are interested in questions intersecting perception and cognition, please reach out! I’ll also be happy to chat at the #Bernsteinconference this week.

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

Remember when UEG told us “there was no plan B” for further redundancies. Now we know, from the published Recovery Plan, that at the same time they were proposing over 400 future job losses including over 350 redundancies. We cannot trust their words. Vote in our ballot now to protect jobs.

Please RT 2 new positions in the lab as postdoc & PhD! Interested in stress, pain, or reward? This project has it all! We are a friendly but ambitious group. Oslo is a capital city on the fjord & bordered by forest, great urban & outdoors opportunities: 💃 ⛷️ 🚣 🎭 🎶 www.jobbnorge.no/en/available...

Some Scottish Neuroscience at the poster session this morning #ICON2025: @ekcunningham.bsky.social presenting "Around The Clock: Physiological Markers Of Lapses In Attention During Sustained Task Performance" *P3.56*. Have a look and let Emily know what you think.

Brain-body #neuroskyence conferences continue with #ICON2025 this week! Having just arrived from Adriatica Summer School in Pescara, the B³ Lab @bodybrainbehaviour.bsky.social will share their latest work on respiratory and gastric modulation of the brain in health and disease.

Make sure to stop at Ceren Arslan‘s (@scannedfruits.bsky.social) poster at #ICON2025 today at 3:30! She‘s presenting some of our recent EEG work on audiovisual object storage in #WorkingMemory! 👇

@lauraklatt.bsky.social doing so much better than I in advertising our symposium... 🫠

This is the line-up 👇We‘ll cover recent result from #EEGManyLabs & #EEGManyPipelines as well as ongoing projects from @scone-neuro.bsky.social and @igor-dgps.bsky.social ! Join us tomorrow at #ICON2025 - 13:45 in room Boavista!

If at #ICON2025 join our - with @lauraklatt.bsky.social - symposium SY11 tomorrow (Wed), 13:45: "Towards Robust and Reliable Cognitive Neuroscience". With talks from @manuruz.bsky.social, Elena Cesnaite [email protected], Alina Koppold, and Laura.

Our ballot to renew our ability to take industrial action at the University of Dundee opens today. Melissa D’Ascenzio, Dundee University UCU branch co-president, said: “The university’s students and staff have been badly let down. 1/

Visit our website, and read about our strong opposition to the recently rejected University Recovery Plan: a plan created by the short-term team in charge at University of Dundee. sites.dundee.ac.uk/ducu/ #SaveHE #SaveDundeeUni

It’s been reported in The Courier that the University of Dundee’s Recovery Plan called for the loss of another 450 jobs (390 FTE) in the next year. 50 Voluntary Severance 170 Voluntary Redundancies 170 Compulsory Redundancies With 110FTE leaving since March and 300FTE now, this would be 800FTE

Hive mind, do I know anyone who has worked the the HCP MEG data before? I am trying to work with MNE Python, but I am hitting some barriers with the HCP head digitization data. I found this toolbox, mne.tools/mne-hcp/inde..., but it hasn't been maintained in the last 10 years. #neuroskyence

It's still possible to register - join us in tuebingen for this very exciting lineup! #neuroskyence #compneurosky

www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... New data from our lab — Sarah Tune, Iris Borschke, and I come out with modelling the neural fate and the behavioural impact of single clicks in auditory decision making. Beautiful work by @sarahtune.bsky.social — foreshadowing what is going on in the lab currently.

You’re now breathing manually 🌬️ What underlies this ability to be consciously aware of own breathing? In our new Journal of Neuroscience paper, we report the largest study to date linking brain microstructure to respiratory interoception. www.jneurosci.org/content/earl... 🧵 👇

It’s shocking to see that 1 in 4 jobs at Lancaster University are at risk. Please sign their petition to fight against these devastating cuts. www.change.org/p/stop-mass-...

Still playing the waiting game with the publication process 🤐😪😑 … but in the meantime, here’s some fresh evidence showing that cognitive conflict might actually feel rewarding. Who knew it could be fun? osf.io/c75tj @mlapietra.bsky.social @MarcLluisVives @nicolaml.bsky.social

EWOMS (European Working Memory Symposium) Lyon, France 26-28 August 2026 The 2026 theme — Working Memory, Strategy, and Consciousness — aims to bridge traditional cognitive perspectives and neuroscientific approaches to working memory. Abstract submission deadline: 13 March 2026

We are delighted to share that the threat of redundancy has now been removed from two areas that had been targeted - Leverhulme Centre for Forensic Science and Education Assistive Technology. Congrats to our colleagues! We will continue to fight for all staff and the future of University of Dundee.

Thrilled to share our new opinion piece—hot off the press—on attentional sampling, co-authored with the magnificent Flor Kusnir and Daniele Re. It captures where our thinking has landed on this topic after years of work. www.cell.com/trends/cogni...

A very personal reflection on how the financial crisis at the University of Dundee is affecting PhD students. Reduced teaching opportunities, financial difficulty and the cutting off of a route to employment. Thank you Taylor for writing this.

The University of Dundee has a women problem “In our view this culture of sexism runs deeper than the sidelining of women speaking up and out and persists beyond the ignominious end of Iain Gillespie’s tenure as Principal of the university.” www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/opinion/c...

Pretty much sums up the defense of former University of Dundee Principal Iain Gillespie in the Scottish parliament hearing rn.

We need a fresh approach & a new culture to tackle Dundee's crisis. More investment is welcome. But without bringing in staff & students, this money will only enable more of the toxic governance culture at the University of Dundee. #Solidarity

NO REDUNDANCIES at the University of Dundee. Fantastic news in our fight to save jobs, as interim Principal Prof Nigel Seaton confirms that there will be no redundancies. A massive victory for everyone who has supported us. Looking forward to receiving the removal of Section 188 in writing.
