New preprint out with our NeuralArchCon/#skuldnet data examining the neural correlates of propensity for nightmares.

The BPP team is in Amsterdam for IASP! Curious about how computational modeling can help us understand pain perception? Come say hello and let's chat about drift diffusion modeling, test-retest in pain learning, population encoding of temperature and pain, and much more! #WC2024

First up this afternoon, Camilla and Arthur! They’re happy to tell you about evidence accumulation, reversal learning, the volatile Kalman filter, & how we used them to learn more about spatial aspects of pain perception and how we form expectations of pain! Posters #135 & #493

Are you a researcher? Feel like having time to pursue your ideas in an international, interdisciplinary environment? Fancy exploring life and society in one the the most vibrant cities in Northern Europe? Then check out our new call for fellows Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies. Details below!

We’re lucky to have Kelly with us! Looking forward to some exciting new experiments.

Our paper on individual differences in musicality is now published in Nature Communications! 🧠🎶 We found that variations in musical perceptual abilities in the general population are linked to diffs in brain network systems largely dedicated to working memory and other exec functions /1

Very excited to share that our first MRI paper from the NeuralArchCon/#skuldnet dataset is now out in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…! Using graph theory, we examine structural+functional frontoparietal network organization in relation to assessments of musical aptitude.

Today I will be presenting some of the first behavioral results from our affective and metacognitive precision modulation fMRI task, featuring data from 200 participants. At the joint The ECG & Body Pain Perception Lab lab meeting, 13:00 in the thalamus CFIN 🧠 - all are welcome!

Don't miss this great CFIN workshop on #brain #microcirculation! Aarhus University Aarhus Institute of Advanced Studies

Happy to share our latest publication, out now in Cognition, where we find that metacognitive self-beliefs are updated in a suprisingly domain-specific manner. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Have you ever had a song stuck in your head? Then you might be interested in our new #musicscience work just published in PLOS Biology doi.org/10.1371/journa… We used decoding to investigate how the brain represents perceived and imagined musical sounds. TL;DR below 1/

What happens when our stream of consciousness turns inward, towards the body? Our new fMRI study of 536 individuals finds that 'body-wandering' is associated with distinct patterns of brain connectivity, physiology, affect, and mental health: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New The ECG preprint explores how we think about our bodies during resting state fMRI!

New study on ‘Aberrant effective connectivity in preadolescent children at familial high-risk for schizophrenia or bipolar disorder’ with Lotte Veddum, Merete Nordentoft, Ole Mors & the VIA consortium in Biological Psychiatry Funded by Lundbeckfonden doi.org/10.1016/j.bpsc…

1/ We can measure interoception in many aspects, but can we actually manipulate it? I’m excited to share our new study, which shows that blockade of peripheral beta-adrenergic pathways improves cardiac and respiratory interoception in unique ways! 🧵👇biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our latest publication, out now in Science Advances: “Thermosensory predictive coding underpins an illusion of pain.” science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…. Read the full thread below for details!

Congratulations to the Body Pain Perception Lab and The ECG teams for this great publication!

I had the pleasure of chatting with the brilliantly insightful Sarah Crespi on the Science Magazine podcast about what it means to experience an illusion of pain based on science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…! Catch the full interview starting at 26:44. science.org/content/podcas…

I can't actually believe this but I got a Lundbeck Postdoctoral Fellowship! 🤯 I'm so excited to work on multi-organ brain-body interaction models with Micah G. Allen , Anke Karabanov , Dani S. Bassett, & Diego Vidaurre! I'm honestly in shock and can't wait! 🎉
