💤🧠🧪 New article! 🧪🧠💤 After years of effort led by @qualiastructure.bsky.social (Nao Tsuchiya and William Wong), Jenny Windt, Katja Valli, Valdas Noreika and @rherzoga.bsky.social, the Dream database is now published in @natcomms.nature.com **A dream EEG and mentation database** rdcu.be/eAwni

As exciting as being in "flow" is researching it! We present a new continuous subjective measure that doesn't interfere with flow to to temporally connect subjective experience with physiological data osf.io/preprints/os... Thanks to @suragenc.bsky.social , Elif, @marcwittmann.bsky.social &Tzvetan!

New paper from great UK-CH collab! Using our immersive “Real Hand Illusion paradigm”, we showed increased sensitivity to visuo-tactile delays&its influence on body (dis)ownership in individuals with high trait dissociation. A big thank you to @jamoffatt.bsky.social and all co-authors! rdcu.be/ehNAJ

Paper alert: Many people with Body Identity Dysphoria simulate their desired state by binding a limb to reduce stress& align with their identity. We explored whether VR offers a safer alternative and its effects on neural activity & connectivity. authors.elsevier.com/c/1kmKS55vZH...

Wonderful new #TerraX documentary on birth and death!With Norma we used #VirtuaReality to expose Mai Thi Nguyen-Kim to an #OutOfBody -like experience. Painful to watch myself on TV 🙈, but the production was fun. Thanks Luise&the amazing team! www.zdf.de/dokumentatio... Photocredit: Norma Deseke.

New preprint of out! We investigated in people with body integrity dysphoria neural and phenomenological changes after playing a #VR game in a body corresponding to their desired body #amputated. We are very excited about the results, check medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

and one more… 🤩

Happy to provide more information. stellen.uni-konstanz.de/jobposting/134edab117119d9190591316f37e7ae0455909af0

Brain-body people in Europe, there's an ERA-NET NEURON pre-call for transnational proposals on bidirectional brain-body interactions in health and disease (open in Jan)! Have a look, spread the word, and let's make things happen! #neuroskyence #cogsci #neurogrants #psychsci

last days to apply for these phd positions - please share... interdisciplinary project featuring pain, psychedelics, fNIRS & embodied VR

just to break the 232 232 23...flow, here we go

New preprint out! We show how attention to different bodily systems alter neurophysiological and phenomenal aspects of chronic pain in a single patient over a period of 20 days using wearable EEG and a newly developed platform for stimulus presentation and temporal experience doi.org/10.1101/2023...

IK (interdisciplinary college) is really eacht time amazing! An wonderful opportunity to learn, meet, experience, explore and connect - highly recommended! In the middle of nowhere but the place to be! www.interdisciplinary-college.org/registration

welcome @myfullhandle.bsky.social - honoured to be your second follower after satan!

We recruit 2 PhD students for our SNF Sinergia project on psychedelics & pain. Looking for enthusiastic students with VR and/or neuroimaging experience. Join our interdisciplinary research team in beautiful Zurich! [email protected] for further information.

here again with the correct link (hopefully): osf.io/preprints/ps...

osf.io/preprints/ps... new preprint on neural and phenomenal correlates of two hypnosis states in hypnosis experts. While not an expert myself at all, I vividly remember the altered sense of agency in Esdaile when trying out the experiment - interesting and impressive! Congratulation Maria!

Fancy a new wall color? Check out our new paper on the effect of (virtual) room colors on affect: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... Thank you Marieke, Domicele, Ricarda & Christine for this great collaborative work! 🎨

The day we founded - under the open sky - AIR, the association for independent research 💛. Stay tuned….

Come work with us!🚨 We are looking for a Post-Doc in the Cognition Lab at the University of Zurich (Prof. Klaus Oberauer), starting January 2024. There are still 10 days left to apply and I can highly recommend working in this lab! Please share! Job-post: jobs.uzh.ch/offene-stell...

what do a giant octopus and pheasant have in common? check out metazooa.com - so much fun to play! unfortunately (or rather luckily) there is only one game per day available

still one of the coolest topic 🤩 - and great PI and institute!

As answer is still 0%, here again: How often is a male professor asked in awe: “How do you manage to work 100%, travel much&raise 3 kids?” And: “Wow, lucky you to be with a wife, who reduced the work load because of the kids?” #itsallinyourhead #equalopportunities #freelifechoices #letschangesociety

The strain on scientific publishing 📄: We've got issues. Scientists overwhelmed, editors overworked, constant special issue invites, mass article retractions, journal delistings… JUST WHAT IS GOING ON!? See: arxiv.org/abs/2309.15884 A 🧵1/n #AcademicChatter #PublishOrPerish #PhDAdvice #PhDChat

welcome @dorothycowie.bsky.social!

I just tried this new app for finding twitter follows on bluesky and it is much faster and more streamlined: skeet.labnotes.org

A horizon for haptic perception journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.1... This was a fun study to do! We found that users could almost perfectly localize touch on six-meter-long rods. Absolutely nuts

Feels like a good timing for a fresh start here. Hoping to keep the scientific flame alive on Bluesky as I say goodbye to my professorship. Looking forward to your discussions, papers, thoughts & news.
