Really looking forward to being a part of the Instant Expert New Scientist New Scientist Events day on the brain on 10th Feb. Looks like a great range of speakers and topics: newscientist.com/science-events…

🚨New paper!🚨 I'm delighted to share this important paper. Done with dear colleagues Pedro Mediano Fernando Rosas 🦋 and co. The main result is that the entropic brain effect - so robust & reliable in resting EEG/MEG data - is greater when external sensory complexity is minimal🧵


Really looking forward to this event with Gina Rippon Prof Pete Etchells Daniel Bor brucehood and Clara Humpston newscientist.com/science-events…

Still time to buy tickets for the Instant Expert New Scientist New Scientist Events 10th Feb day of brain talks, with me giving one of them. Should be a really interesting day: eventbrite.co.uk/e/instant-expe….

Thank you New Scientist Events for a fantastic day of neuroscience behind the headlines! I really enjoyed listening to and learning from Daniel Bor Gina Rippon brucehood Prof Pete Etchells and Clara Humpston


Final piece of my PhD work in collaboration with van Swinderen Lab now out in Science Advances where we show distinct sleep stages in flies (see thread below for details): science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Time to re-up these exciting postdoc and PhD opportunities in consciousness science at the Sussex Centre for Consciousness Science University of Sussex. Note the application deadline for most positions is now *April 26* 👇🏽

1/8 Finally published at Nature Communications, "Distributed representations of prediction error signals across the cortical hierarchy are synergistic". Very grateful to all the friends and colleagues around the globe who made this possible. nature.com/articles/s4146…



1/3 "Lumpability is now a technical term". Take-home from Sabine Hossenfelder's wonderful video recap of our preprint on identifying and quantifying emergence (FYI .Sean Carroll). Thanks Sabine 🙏🏽 - and great stuff project leads Fernando Rosas 🦋 & Pedro Mediano youtube.com/watch?v=Tw9sr0…

Out today in Nature Human Behaviour: Genetic associations between non-cognitive skills and academic achievement over development nature.com/articles/s4156… Queen Mary University of London QM_SBBS UCL News A detailed thread👇



Incredible work by Alberto Liardi and team... 'Null models for comparing information decomposition across complex systems' - arxiv.org/abs/2410.11583 Fernando Rosas 🦋 Robin Carhart-Harris George Blackburne Daniel Bor Pedro Mediano

How do you compare different types of (PID) information across complex systems (e.g. brains)? We have a new robust method to do this! See preprint, with Fernando Rosas 🦋 Robin Carhart-Harris George Blackburne and Pedro Mediano arxiv.org/abs/2410.11583




It is a pleasure to see this published ! 👇 Thank you very much to all the collaborators Antonella Tramacere trying to write w/o typos Mar Estarellas Pedro Mediano Fernando Rosas 🦋 Marilyn Gatica Rubén Herzog Amunátegui Fausto Ivan Mindlin Giovanni Petri Daniel Bor Andrea Brovelli Samy Castro Novoa 🙏
