🚨 🆕 Preprint 🚨 How does the brain represent natural images? Using MEG + multivariate analysis, we disentangle contributions of retinotopy, spatial frequency, shape, and texture Together, our results reveal how visual features jointly and dynamically support human object recognition. link 👇

My prediction is that LLM peer review will slow down science. It will do this for precisely the same reasons that contemporary peer review does and some extra ones. Start by reading @hansonmark.bsky.social thread below, then read on. 🧵

Very good thread that also reflects my experience with @qedscience.bsky.social

Who doesn't like a good model of the brain? Yet, from simple regression to neural nets, some limitations keep popping up (e.g., overfitting) @mjwolff.bsky.social & I saw some cool but puzzling data, ran a quick analysis & found one such limitation: model mimicry. Now in #naturecommunications &🧵below

preprint alert 🚨 1/ Can we accurately detect sequential replay in humans using Temporally Delayed Linear Modelling (#TDLM)? In our recent study, we could not find any replay and decided to dig deeper by running a hybrid simulation with surprising results. Link to preprint & details below 👇

I am so excited to share that our paper 'A neural basis for distinguishing imagination from reality' is now published in @cp-neuron.bsky.social! 🧠✨ See thread below! doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...

🚨🚨🚨PREPRINT ALERT🚨🚨🚨 Neural dynamics across cortical layers are key to brain computations - but non-invasively, we’ve been limited to rough "deep vs. superficial" distinctions. What if we told you that it is possible to achieve full (TRUE!) laminar (I, II, III, IV, V, VI) precision with MEG!

Press release on our new paper from @hih-tuebingen.bsky.social 🧠🥳 Link: www.nature.com/articles/s42... Thread: bsky.app/profile/migh... #neuroskyence #compneurosky #magnetoencephalography

A new study led by Prof. Markus Siegel @siegellab.bsky.social, and first author Dr. Katrina Quinn @mightyrosequinn.bsky.social shows: The brain represents decisions abstracted from actions – even when they are tightly linked to specific actions. 👉 More information: tinyurl.com/4h38b3u7

🚨 New preprint! 🚨 Can humans learn sensory regularities that are irrelevant to ongoing behavior? Yes, and we reveal the predictive coding mechanisms behind their acquisition Our results support uncertainty minimization over environmental state transitions as a core objective of brain function 🧵👇

Fresh off the press - our latest publication on abstract choices with @siegellab.bsky.social @fsandhaeger.bsky.social @nimanoury.bsky.social @ezezelic.bsky.social at @commsbio.nature.com Link: www.nature.com/articles/s42... 🧵below (1/7)
