New paper led by wonder postdocs Francesca Greenstreet and @jessegeerts.bsky.social and @clopathlab.bsky.social trying to understand why –in the "what for" sense– there are multiple motor learning systems –supervised and RL-based– in the brain. Check out Jesse's 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

How about starting the new year with a new Nilearn release? Sure: here is Nilearn 0.13.0 for y'all!!! New features: extract data to pandas or polars dataframes, get cluster statistics for surface analysis... More info here: neurostars.org/t/nilearn-0-...

If you analyse time-resolved data (M/EEG, iEEG, pupillometry, force recordings…) and feel limited by cluster-based permutation tests (CBPTs); especially when trying to determine when an effect starts or ends; you may want to try our new R package: lnalborczyk.github.io/neurogam/ #rstats #brms #EEG

The Sensorimotor Learning Lab, directed by Dr. Amanda Therrien, investigates the mechanisms through which damage to different brain areas disrupts #sensorimotor function & #motor learning to improve motor training protocols for patients with neurological disorders. https://ow.ly/9ZE750XGgRP

New preprint on prosody in the brain! tinyurl.com/2ndswjwu HeeSoKim NiharikaJhingan SaraSwords @hopekean.bsky.social @coltoncasto.bsky.social JenniferCole @evfedorenko.bsky.social Prosody areas are distinct from pitch, speech, and multiple-demand areas, and partly overlap with lang+social areas→🧵

❓Are #TheoryOfMind (inferring others’ mental states) brain areas always engaged to understand what people mean, or only for specific speech act types? And if so, why? 🤔 🎉 New work in @royalsocietypublishing.org w @isabellaboux.bsky.social& #FPulvermüller royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

What does it mean to understand language? We argue that the brain’s core language system is limited, and that *deeply* understanding language requires EXPORTING info to other brain regions. w/ @neuranna.bsky.social @evfedorenko.bsky.social @nancykanwisher.bsky.social arxiv.org/abs/2511.19757 1/n🧵👇

The first publication of the #ERC project ‘LaDy’ is a fact and it’s an important one I think: We show that word processing and meaning prediction is fundamentally different during social interaction compared to using language individually! 👀 short 🧵/1 psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202... #OpenAccess
