Becoming a parent is much more detrimental to women’s academic careers than it is to men’s Read the full story: go.nature.com/4v4rxmQ

🎉 Excited to share our publication in PNAS! 🎉 What happens when our stream of consciousness turns towards the body? Our fMRI study of 536 individuals finds that 'body-wandering' is associated with patterns of brain connectivity, physiology, affect, and mental health: www.pnas.org/doi/full/10....

Excited to share that our work on organ-specific interoception is now published in Communications Psychology! www.nature.com/articles/s44... @micahgallen.com @the-ecg.org

New @bodybrainbehaviour.bsky.social preprint, and this is a big one for the lab: @teresaberther.bsky.social did the deepest of dives into #gut-brain coupling with MEG and HD gastrography. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... A brief 🧵on our first trip into this corner of #brain-body #neuroskyence:

A new Department of Cognitive Science is being created at Bocconi University in Milan, Italy. Here is the call for a cluster hire (for around 10 faculty) in all areas of cognitive science, at both junior and senior levels: www.unibocconi.it/en/faculty-a... Deadline: May 4th, 2026

'A dual-function framework of interoception: the information and coordination modes of interoceptive signaling' by Catherine Tallon-Baudry, Marie Loescher (@marieloescher.bsky.social) & Anthony Clément www.cell.com/trends/neuro...

Happy to share our new Opinion now out in @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social, with Catherine Tallon-Baudry and Anthony Clément! A dual-function framework of interoception: the information and coordination modes of interoceptive signaling Full access: authors.elsevier.com/a/1miOLbotqB... #neuroskyence

New preprint with Nicolai Wolpert and Catherine Tallon-Baudry ! Reaction times across three distinct perceptual tasks (total N = 90) varied with the electrical rhythm of the stomach. #neuroskyence

SOLIDARITÉ AVEC LE ROJAVA ‼️ La révolution du Rojava est attaquée depuis plus d'une semaine par les forces de HTS du pouvoir de Al-Charra en Syrie, soutenues militairement par la Turquie, et avec l'aval des USA et des pays de l'UE. Rassemblons-nous en soutien ! 🧵⬇️

How the brain listens to the body matters. Our new preprint investigates interoceptive processing in schizophrenia spectrum disorders across phenomenology, behavior, and heartbeat-evoked brain responses. 🧠🫀DOI: doi.org/10.64898/202...

1/ 📢 Come study cognitive science in Paris! The Master’s program in Cognitive Science at @ENS_ULM, @psl_univ, and @EHESS_fr is now accepting applications for the next academic year. 🗓 Deadline: February 24, 2026 💻 Apply here: master-cognitive-science.ens.psl.eu/en/applicati...

1/Paper out today in Phil Trans B @royalsocietypublishing.org alsocietypublishing.org in a Special Issue «Evolutionary functions of consciousness», by @axc.bsky.social, Catherine Tallon-Baudry, @krysdolega.bsky.social and myself. 👉Open-access at this link: doi.org/10.1098/rstb... ⬇️ Summary below:

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/...

*13th MindBrainBody Symposium* 📆 Mar 9-11, 2026 🏠 #Berlin & virtual (deadline: Jan 8, 2026) Keynotes: - @ulrikebingel.bsky.social - Karl Friston (online) - @tinalonsdorf.bsky.social - Sonja Kotz - Julian Thayer ...& so much more: prizes, posters, talks, food, drinks, encounters. Let's meet!

More on the link brain-heart axis and sensorimotor function, relevant for BCI research 🤖: Different bodily rhythms are coupled with cortical regions at rest. Here we show that motor imagery triggers a decoupling of cardiac dynamics with motor cortex functional connectivity 🧠🫀 doi.org/10.1101/2025...

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. #interoception #neuroskyence

After initially being place on the reserve list, my Academy Research Fellowship has now received a positive result from the Research Council of Finland 🥳 Next year I will be starting my own team where we will work on identifying new interoception-based treatment targets for mental health disorders!

Got Butterflies in your Stomach? I am super excited to share the first major study of my postdoc @the-ecg.bsky.social - Now out in @natmentalhealth.nature.com! We report a multidimensional mental health signature of stomach-brain coupling in the largest sample to date www.nature.com/articles/s44...

"Calls for transforming academia have multiplied over the past decade. These include demands for a change in how the university responds to the climate crisis, how it engages with its colonial past &present &how it is governed [with]calls for truly democratic governance" @ferracimo.bsky.social et al

Loved presenting our Brain-Body tutorial🫀🫁🧠 at #ASSC28, great initiative & brilliant talk from @brainandstomach.bsky.social & awesome talks as always from @danlikesbrains.bsky.social & @marieloescher.bsky.social. Looking forward to the rest of the conference!
