Very happy to see this work from Thuy and the Neurodesk team published! We provide 4 example use cases to highlight the versatility of Neurodesk for open, reproducible, and scalable workflows 🙌🏽

A nice shift in perceived colour between central and peripheral vision. The fixated disc looks purple while the others look blue. The effect presumably comes from the absence of S-cones in the fovea. From Hinnerk Schulz-Hildebrandt: arxiv.org/pdf/2509.115...

To wake up with such great news! Wow, as a Brazilian it was hard to see justice coming, but there is hope for true accountability! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

1 To predict the behaviour of a primate, would you rather base your guess on a closely related species or one with a similar brain shape? We looked at brains & behaviours of 70 species, you’ll be surprised! 🧵Thread on our new preprint with @r3rt0.bsky.social , doi.org/10.1101/2025...

🧠✨ Excited to share that our literature review on retinotopic mapping in the human visual cortex is now published! tinyurl.com/5d9ne68b Amazing collab with Noah Benson and Alex Puckett! We hope this will be a helpful resource for pRF modellers and visual neuroscientists!

Exciting new preprint from the lab: “Adopting a human developmental visual diet yields robust, shape-based AI vision”. A most wonderful case where brain inspiration massively improved AI solutions. Work with @zejinlu.bsky.social @sushrutthorat.bsky.social and Radek Cichy arxiv.org/abs/2507.03168

If you have 10-20 minutes (depends on how fast you are), would you please consider doing this online study on #mentalimagery? It contains a survey & an experiment where you look at pictures and you respond what you see: #psychscisky #neuroskyence #visionscience tstbl.co/820-917

I think I have a logo for deepRetinotopy! Little eyes are the cutest thing and were my husband's idea xD

SciComm done right 🤣

Today we had the first “First Nations People in Neuroimaging Research” at OHBM and it was beautiful to see and hear of the pioneering work from New Zealand and Australia #OHBM2025

Good to be back home with great people 😍🥰 #OHBM2025

What makes humans similar or different to AI? In a paper out in @natmachintell.nature.com led by @florianmahner.bsky.social & @lukasmut.bsky.social, w/ Umut Güclü, we took a deep look at the factors underlying their representational alignment, with surprising results. www.nature.com/articles/s42...

How is high-level visual cortex organized? In a new preprint with @martinhebart.bsky.social & @kathadobs.bsky.social, we show that category-selective areas encode a rich, multidimensional feature space 🌈 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #neuroskyence 🧵 1/n

@neurodesk.org workshop at BrainHack #OHBM2025 is about to start 🙌🏽

Retinotopic mapping Fans Just finished my poster for OHBM. The results blow the discussion about V2 & V3 layout wide open. We find hemispheric asymmetry! Fantastic work by my student Ruby Barahona, collaboration with the also fantastic @felenitaribeiro.bsky.social and Noah Benson.

#OHBM2025 is around the corner, and I will be there to share the latest development on deepRetinotopy, our toolkit for predicting retinotopic maps from brain anatomy! Please come by poster #1531 on Friday and Saturday!

🧠 Did you know Neurodesk can run a full neuroimaging workflow in your browser — no installs, no setup? Just open, click, and compute. Join us at Brainhack 2025 to learn how! #Neurodesk #OpenScience

🧠 Join us at Brainhack 2025 in Brisbane! We’re running a Neurodesk workshop on reproducible, portable neuroimaging workflows. 📅 21 June 🌐 Learn, hack, and contribute! 💻🌏 🔗 ohbm.github.io/hackathon202... #Neurodesk #Brainhack2025 #Neuroimaging #OpenScience

In this blog post I am exploring the strange tension between rigor, reach, and recognition in modern science. What we gain (and lose) by just publishing the PDFs: thingsonthings.org/just-publish...

Please read this and share widely, especially with people outside of science. Things are BAD in American bioscience right now and everyone needs to know just how bad - and dangerous - it is. apnews.com/article/nih-...

Hey everyone at @vssmtg.bsky.social! If you’re interested in pRF fitting, go visit Garikoitz Lerma-Usabiaga’s poster on pRF fitting methods! For our development of these tools, we’re very interested to hear you want in these tools. Please fill out our questionnaire: forms.gle/fx5UMs1362jv...

Our lab is present at #VSS2025, so let me highlight some of the things we have been up to with a talk and three posters. Would love to see you around! 🧵

🎉 FINALLY PUBLISHED! 🎉 We outline how to capture the #emergent dynamical structure in #biophysical neural models. coauthored with a team dear to my heart; @thomasandrillon.bsky.social, @anilseth.bsky.social, Lionel Barnett, and Olivia Carter. journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...

🚨 New Open Dataset Alert! 👅 We've just published a data descriptor in Scientific Data introducing the first open, annotated MRI dataset of tongue musculature, including T1- and T2-weighted images from 47 non-neurodegenerative "healthy" participants across 3 studies! 📄 Check it out: rdcu.be/el0hW

New #neuroskyence #visionscience by my excellent colleague Ecem Altan: We study higher-level processes in Ponzo-like illusions. In brief, inversion reduces the illusion & V1 activity reflects that difference, suggesting the V1 effect isn't just from feedforward processing: doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

I'm happy to announce that our Primer on coding in psychology / neuroscience received the CMBB Replication award! 🏆 www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Reposting this - still looking for more participants! Especially if you (think you) have #aphantasia or #hyperphantasia, we are very interested in hearing from you... Also if you have experience of #prophantasia (cc @kerblooee.bsky.social) #mentalimagery #visionscience #psychscisky

Yes, now! Most of us will make self-interested decisions under pressure, and so will institutions. We need organization across institutions to stand firm. Media companies, law firms, universities, med research companies, each area needs to band together now!

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Fakhereh Movahedian Attar, Nikolaus Weiskopf, et al: Short association fibres form topographic sheets in the human V1–V2 processing stream doi.org/10.1162/imag...

I wrote a commentary on a very nice paper that just appeared in @brain1878.bsky.social by @selmalugtmeijer.bsky.social, Sobolewska, de Haan & @neurosteven.bsky.social. Spoiler: It's about modularity in mid-level vision. 🤓 Original paper: doi.org/10.1093/brai... Commentary: doi.org/10.1093/brai...

If you have spent time in German academia you might find the video triggering... This problem is bigger than Max-Planck-Institutes and it's important to speak openly about it. There is sadly a reason why most of the scientists preferred to stay anonymous though.

Clima de copa do mundo 😮

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Jayson Jeganathan, Michael Breakspear, et al: Spurious correlations in surface-based functional brain imaging doi.org/10.1162/imag...
