New study out today in Nature Comms: www.nature.com/articles/s41..., in which we set out to test whether ultrasound could influence the reward-related learning computations of the nucleus accumbens, building on decades of work on dopaminergic prediction error and reinforcement learning. And it did.

Happy to share our new publication in BMC Psychiatry. @bmc.springernature.com bmcpsychiatry.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... 🗯️ Here, we aimed to map different oculomotor paradigms metrics to key attention systems across psychiatric conditions, including ADHD, ASD, TS, OCD, BPD, DCD, and SSD.

@dotproduct.bsky.social's first first author paper is finally out in @sfnjournals.bsky.social! Her findings show that content-specific predictions fluctuate with alpha frequencies, suggesting a more specific role for alpha oscillations than we may have thought. With @jhaarsma.bsky.social. 🧠🟦 🧠🤖

Preprint Alert🧑‍💻 In our new study we track hierarchical neurobiological changes 2, 15, 30 minutes post TBS protocols (cTBS, iTBS, Sham) using spDCM under conductance based canonical microcircuit neural mass model🧠📝. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

For TMS studies to be reproducible and for us to build on each other’s findings, we need to report what we actually did during the experiment. We've built and now are evaluating the TMS-RAT (Reporting Assessment Tool). Check out our website! - built by @thehandlab.bsky.social

It's finally here! Use the Network Correspondence Toolbox to help contextualize your neuroimaging findings 🧠

🧵 How do psychedelics shape brain activity? Our new paper presents the largest neuroimaging study of psilocybin to date—revealing how context structures psychedelic brain states. Title: Psychedelics Align Brain Activity with Context Paper: lnkd.in/gt-kMR6d A thread 🧵👇 1/n

We have an opening for a 12 month Research Assistant post, funded by an ERC grant. The postholder would help with several neuroimaging projects, including MEG and 7T fMRI. Please repost and share with anyone who may be interested. www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/... #neuroskyence #Neuroimaging

Predictive coding folks! Found sth new for your presentations😂

Excited to share this perspective with @yaelniv.bsky.social about how schemas might be learned and instantiated via reinforcement learning, latent cause inference, and dimensionality reduction, and what's the medial prefrontal cortex might be doing for all of these www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Fresh out: a short review article where I give an overview of different ways that across-trial temporal structure is helpful in understanding cognitive models of decision-making osf.io/preprints/ps...

📣 #PhD position announcement📣 (please share) We're seeking applicants for a joint venture with University of St. Andrews (lead by Thomas Otto) exploring how we can optimise measures of #multisensory #perception for remote data collection. Find out more here👇 https://buff.ly/3ZJk131

Check out our work recently published in Scientific Reports 🧠🧑‍💻 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Our study explored role of right DLPFC in different explorative strategies, using TMS and Horizon Task.

My paper is out!! 🎉 "Opponent control of reinforcement by striatal dopamine and serotonin", @Nature Here, we show that dopamine and serotonin signals form a gas-brake system for reward in the mammalian brain THREAD ⬇️ 1/n

Just start doing some real tasks with Neurodesk @neurodesk.bsky.social . It's really amazing (at least far better than having dual boot if you are using Windows). Check out if you are working with neuroimaging packages. www.neurodesk.org

A few months ago I started coding numerical questions from this book with Python. Email if you wanna contribute. It could be a good practice though. Check out here: github.com/ArminTi/Baye...

Together, our results demonstrate that a key mechanism through which the brain distinguishes imagination from reality is by monitoring the activity of mid-level sensory cortex. We hope these findings lay the foundations for future research on a generalised reality monitoring system in the brain 13/N

I am beyond excited to share our new preprint ‘A neural basis for distinguishing between imagination and reality’ with Thomas von Rein, @peterkok.bsky.social and @smfleming.bsky.social! osf.io/preprints/ps... a thread 🧵

Join us for the Computational Psychiatry Conference cpconf.org July 14-16 2025 in beautiful Tübingen, Germany. Proposals for symposia can now be submitted. Each symposium should have 4 speakers, and we are looking for symposia across the range from basic to clinical and big data.
