🍇 New paper 🍇 Ever felt like someone was in the room when no one was there? Together with @parkbmb.bsky.social @tatianabaxter.bsky.social we asked whether that might reflect misperceiving signals from our own beating heart - and if this relates to psychosis risk. doi.org/10.1159/0005...

My very first paper is finally out in @pnas.org, with Catherine Tallon-Baudry and Patrick Haggard! Interoception, exteroception, the self and more, it's got it all. Also it should go open access at some point www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

@parkbmb.bsky.social Our paper 'Felt Presence and Psychosis Risk in the General Population' is available, open-access in Psychopathology! In this survey, distress during FP predicted high psychosis-risk, resilience was linked with FP frequency & vividness. Read more: karger.com/psp/article/...

What if many psychiatric disorders share the same hidden glitch in how the brain infers reality? In a new volume, Al Powers and I gather experts to examine how disrupted sensory inference across #vision, #touch, #proprioception and #interoception might unify our understanding.

That’s a wrap! Thoroughly enjoyed my time at @bacn.co.uk. Looking forward to next year, in Brighton 🏖️🎡 @sarahgarf.bsky.social

British Association for Cognitive Neuroscience Day 2: @afelsenheimer.bsky.social detailing her work on the effect of self touch on anxiety, Rania-Iman on heartbeat evoked potential analysis, and @hannahsavage.bsky.social presenting a novel test for gastric interoception.

Always a pleasure to hear the exciting work in a fast presentation data blitz session. From my lab, @oliwiastecko.bsky.social detailing the unexpected journey replicating prior work on memory & the heart. Find out more in poster #4 at #BACN2025

🚨 New paper out! Phase confusion: How inconsistent cardiac labeling obscures interoception research 🫀🧠 We unpack methodological incosistencies and propose a way forward with the HEARTS framework. In Biol. Psychol. - Open Access: 🔗 shorturl.at/YJhyn 1st paper of great @angeliacaparco.bsky.social!

Gentle, slow stroke touch significantly moves the heart by lowering rate and increasing rhythmicity. This effect is much stronger when someone else touches us, compared to self-touch. Out now in IEEE Trans Affective Comp @rebeccaboehme.bsky.social, @paulasalamone.bsky.social doi.org/10.1109/TAFF...

New preprint! ⬇️🤩 We find a reduced self-other distinction in psychosis 😶‍🌫️, including increased neural activity during self-touch 🧠, reduced latency differences already at the *spinal cord* level 😲, and diminished interoceptive accuracy 🫀. #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky

I thought it could be nice to connect the community of researchers exploring body-brain interactions on bsky, so here is the Body-Brain Interactions Starter Pack! 🫀🫁👀🧠 #neuroskyence #academicsky Let me know if you would like to be added or know someone to add. Enjoy and share! go.bsky.app/Fwqeu32

What a better way to start on this platform than (re)sharing this amazing resource by IGOR 🚀

Hello interoception community, given the desultory mood elsewhere I thought I'd hop over here to be a part of this community as well. There are a lot of interesting things happening, not the least of which is this NIH interoception meeting on Nov 11th: www.nccih.nih.gov/news/events/... 🧠🫀 🧠🩺
