I'm recruiting PhD students to join my new lab at Brown! Please apply if you're interested in judgment and decision-making, social+cognitive psych, or using games/experiments/computational models to understand human behavior. Apps due Dec 1! More info: davidlevari.com

Exciting new work by Andrea Luppi &⭐️coauthors showing that in 👨‍🦰🐵🐭 large-scale modelling of fMRI activity is largely improved by accounting for *competitive* interactions between areas (i.e. assuming that when one area is active, another quiets down) ➡️tinyurl.com/2wsr4nnf

El 11/11/1675 falleció Thomas Willis, figura esencial en la historia de la anatomía, la fisiología y la neurología. Fundador de la Royal Society, fue de los primeros en atribuir a estructuras cerebrales funciones cognitivas precisas. ¿Te suena el Polígono de Willis? 😉 Pues

Improving fMRI signal quality starts with better noise modeling. My project at #CNS2025 shows how localized region-specific CSF correction may better isolate neural activity and increase sensitivity in the subcortex. Come by my poster #D138 to learn more! (Mon. 8:00-10:00AM) 🧠

Our new issue is now out at cell.com/neuron/current. The cover is one of our favorites, featuring an illustration by the author of the study, Amit Agarwal, and his daughter Nicolo. It reimagines the oligodendrocyte as an octopus exploring corals.

Sleep restores the brain's natural rhythms after learning disrupts them overnight. Perturbations in aperiodic activity caused by new information are reversed during non-REM sleep by morning, and this specific reset predicts successful memory consolidation. tinyurl.com/BarnesNg
