Are you curious about electrogastrography, but keep getting chicken-related results when googling "EGG"? We have the preprint for you! In this tutorial, we describe how to acquire and analyse gastric data from human participants. Plus FREE software! Read it here:

So happy this paper is now out in
@plosbiology.org
! We investigated whether fluctuations in MEPs can be explained by phasic influences from internal bodily rhythms, and whether this might happen independently per organ system.

Thank you
@dalmaijer.bsky.social
for this excellent spotlight on our stomach-brain synchrony research! The analysis beautifully highlights how "more interoception isn't always better", it's about the context and interpretation of bodily signals.

Are interoception and mental health linked? Many assume so, with interoception even described as a psychiatric โp-factor.โ But in our latest preprint, we were surprised to find little evidence for such a connection.

Interoceptive Ability is Unrelated to Mental Health Symptoms: Evidence From a Large Scale Multi-Domain Psychophysical Investigation
Interoception-the sensing and perception of the internal viscera-is widely cast as a transdiagnostic mechanism linking brain-body interaction to mental illness. Prevailing models propose that altered ...

Our paper with
@leahbanellis.bsky.social
and
@micahgallen.com
was just published in Nature Mental Health! In a large neuroimaging study (n=243), we show that stronger coupling between the stomach and frontoparietal brain regions predicts poorer mental health

There are concerns that Bluesky's impact has faded since the initial hype. This is false. That impression results from reading headlines about social media instead of the hard data. The five HIGHEST points of Bluesky posts mentioning research all occur in the last 2 weeks.

Can we enhance interoception by controlling the heart? Thrilled to share our new study, led by
@ashleytyrer.bsky.social
, where we use computational modeling to show that blockading peripheral noradrenaline uniquely alters awareness of heart rate & breathing!

1/ We can measure interoception in many aspects, but can we actually manipulate it? Iโm excited to share our new study, which shows that blockade of peripheral beta-adrenergic pathways improves cardiac and respiratory interoception in unique ways! ๐งต
