My co-authors, Demian Battaglia and Alain Barrat, and I are excited to announce that our paper "The temporal rich club phenomenon" has now been published on Nature Physics ! nature.com/articles/s4156… I thank and congratulate with my two colleagues (my PhD supervisors!)

Closing up the #BridgingTechGapWkshp with a cool introduction to JARVIS 🤖 thank you Timo Hueser


New preprint with @uranc__ and Andres Canales-Johnson: The neural dynamics of feedforward and feedback interactions in predictive processing psyarxiv.com/n3afb

Excited to share our new preprint w. Giorgos Spyropoulos, Marius Schneider, Thiele Lab. We contrast — in 🐭& 🐵 — the physiological relevance and mechanisms underlying two effects of attention: 1. enhanced inter-areal coherence & 2. firing rates🧵👇1/15 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'm pleased to announce that our paper on information dynamics and motor activity in behaving macaques is finally out in PNAS! A great collaboration between Olaf Sporns Benjamin Dann Stefan Schaffelhofer and Hans Scherberger pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

How synergistic is the brain? Distributed representations of prediction error signals across the cortical hierarchy are synergistic biorxiv.org/content/10.110… work led by Frank Gelens and Andres Canales-Johnson




New paper led by the great Irene Onorato! We show how the activity of distinct inhibitory interneurons is precisely coordinated in time with network activity "Distinct roles of PV and Sst interneurons in visually-induced gamma oscillations" biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵1/n


Controlling a hand prosthesis with a brain interface is an incredibly hard problem. How can we train a BCI to produce precise hand movements? We present LSTT: a protocol for training accurate BCI hand grip control A 🧵 and a preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… led by Andres Agudelo-Toro



The neural control & computation lab website is live! 🦾🧠🥳 We want to understand how the brain controls movement! If you do too – consider joining the lab, which will open in July at York University in Toronto. ncclab.ca


Thom Elston I have one too :) github.com/JonathanAMicha… Why are you using a 400Hz highpass filter for your data? I use that for finding bad channels, but not for sorting.

I'm looking for a postdoc interested in using brain-computer interfaces to study motor control using Neuropixels 🦾🧠. Get in touch! Connected Minds @ York & Queens funding opportunity: yorku.ca/research/conne…


Can the motor system use sensory expectations to prepare for unexpected events? Excited to share my latest work with Andrew Pruszynski – where we establish that sensory expectations shape neural population dynamics in motor circuits! 🧵 and paper below 1/
