These past few weeks the fight for our uni has taken a new turn. We've lost ~700 staff already. Will it be 1000 in the end, with the management's "Strategy to Recovery"? Unis as a business vs as a place of research & education - coming to a head in Dundee and across the UK. More ⬇️

"Nobody needs convincing that a science of the Meaning of Life is the wrong project. I will argue that a science of phenomenal consciousness is wrong for exactly the same reason: neither is amenable to the third-person perspective science requires." by @profdata.bsky.social arxiv.org/abs/2606.00226

Very pleased to share our new review in @natrevpsychol.nature.com on integrating cognitive neuroscience and clinical perspectives of metacognition in mental health! With @tobiasuhauser.bsky.social, Lena Jelinek, and Steffen Moritz. (1/3) Web: www.nature.com/articles/s44... PDF: rdcu.be/ePxUG

Join us for the first symposium of the OPM-MEG Action Scotland (OMEGAS) initiative - www.dundee.ac.uk/omegas, to take place at the University of Dundee, *9-10 Dec*, and funded by the Quantum ARC quantum-tech-alliance.co.uk #neuroskyence #meg #opm /1

Out today in Molecular Psychiatry our paper on multiverse computational factor modeling (i.e. a lotta lotta factor analyses). Thread below for the full rundown. Last PhD paper from @celinef.bsky.social YOU'RE FREE!! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Alpha-Band Phase Modulates Perceptual Sensitivity by Changing Internal Noise and Sensory Tuning https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.09.26.678872v1

Open postdoc position👈 We have an open position, starting early 2026, to work on an exciting project aiming at better understanding the role of thalamo-cortical brain oscillations in perception with a comparative, cross-species (animal-human) component based on electrophysiology (incl. scalp EEG).

Quantifying rhythmic and arrhythmic brain activity is a hot 🥵 topic. But how independent are the two components from one another? 🤔 In my latest work with @smfleming.bsky.social & @matlandry.bsky.social, I explore the relationship between the two. (1/4)

Are interoception and mental health linked? Many assume so, with interoception even described as a psychiatric “p-factor.” But in our latest preprint, we were surprised to find little evidence for such a connection. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵 Thread with our reflections on the matter 👇

Our oscillations consensus paper is finally out as a preprint 🤩 thanks to everyone involved arxiv.org/abs/2507.15639

We have a PhD position for an upcoming project in metacognition research in Potsdam / Berlin. A great opportunity for those interested in cognitive modeling of confidence and EEG. More information at coconeuro.github.io/phd2025 Kindly share this opportunity with potential candidates - Thanks!

Another blow to staff at Dundee Uni. They ensured security for those who let this crisis happen, but not for the staff who have been suffering months of uncertainty & the threat of job loss. (🧵1/2)

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Martina Kopčanová, Christian Keitel, et al: Characterising time-on-task effects on oscillatory and aperiodic EEG components and their co-variation with visual task performance doi.org/10.1162/imag...

Hello again Bluesky - very glad to see people moving over here! If anyone works on / wants to connect on work related to analyzing / interpreting neuro-ephys signals - specparam / aperiodic / oscillation stuff, etc - drop a comment or msg and I'll follow back!

Following the trend, here's a starter pack of EEG researchers: go.bsky.app/H2URVjv. Let me know if you'd like to be added or removed. The list is very partial and still needs to be expanded, but I hope you find it helpful! 🧠 #EEG #neuroscience #neuroskyence

1/ After a day of recovering from #CuttingEEG2023, time for a huge appreciation post for everyone who helped us made it happen: First, props to our fantastic venue who gave us shelter and kept us nourished - visit the DCA if you are in Dundee! www.dca.org.uk

3/ Microstates' @tanjucka.bsky.social was also involved in the local organisation together with the ever resourceful Bryony Buck and Rosanne Timmerman. We somehow failed to take a picture of the crew, @chrisbenwell.bsky.social, @annekeitel.bsky.social so here's a replacement shot instead:

Two facets of our last two days of the#CuttingEEG2023 Dundee garden. Y'day evening conference social at our vegan local loco rita. Today, our meeting was cut short by a different kind of colourmap - safe travels to everyone! @cuttingeeg.bsky.social #EEG #neuroskyence
