Article in Nature about mass editorial resignations at journals: nature.com/articles/d4158… If you are a disgruntled cognitive science editor, reach out to me and Ted Gibson (Ted Gibson, Language Lab MIT). We run Open Mind (direct.mit.edu/opmi). Free to publish, free to read.

New preprint w/ Cecilia Husta and Antje Meyer: we used RIFT to study the attentional distribution between speech planning and comprehension. Read the exciting results here! Communicative Brain lab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

There is a debate about whether alpha oscillations reflect distractor inhibition. Based on reviewing recent literature, I argue that distractor-related alpha is controlled by goal-relevant information rather than anticipated distractors; see Comm Psychol: link.springer.com/article/10.103…

As a sensorimotor neuroscientist, my bullshit detector is going crazy on this one

My paper is finally out. 🥳🥳 We here showed that the lateralized volume of caudate and globus pallidus are correlated with attention-modulated alpha oscillations.

🌟So happy to share our preprint!🥳Do alpha oscillations exert local inhibition? In our EEG/MEG study, we show that for cross-modal interactions, alpha activity modulates information at later stages of the processing stream. Ali Mazaheri The Centre for Human Brain Health doi.org/10.1101/2022.0…

Our EEG and MEG studies challenge the idea that alpha-band activity (~10 Hz) inhibits early sensory regions. Our effects were first observed in EEG, then replicated with MEG, pinpointing cortical sources👇👇👇

Clíona Murray, PhD I have a post-doc opening at Del Monte Institute for Neuroscience Cognitive Neurophysiology Laboratory - Rochester for somebody interested in working on neural oscillations and attention in human participants (high-density EEG and fMRI approaches). DM me if interested. #PostDoc #BlackInNeur 🫶🏽 #BINW24 #HireBlackInNeuro

After years of hard and smart work by Tommy Clausner together with Jose.P.Marques and Mathilde Bonnefond our work on how neural oscillations measured with EEG relate to feature specifc laminar fMRI is finally ready to be shared with the public. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We propose that six main mechanisms of neural #oscillations contribute to multi-timescale neural processing in multisensory (and unisensory) integration: Amplitude modulation, phase resetting, entrainment, phase-amplitude coupling, phase coupling; envelope coupling

Honored to be a finalist for the ECR award at #biomag2024. If you’re interested to know how the size of subcortical structures predicts oscillatory activity, come and check out my talk on Tuesday, 18:15 in breakout room 3 (MR C2.1).

So happy to see this tremendous group effort published! 🎉🥳 Will OPM-MEG make a difference in translational neuroscience? We think it may very well!

This is how it ended!

We used RSA to decode representations of the NEXT word while fixating on the current word. We provide strong and direct evidence for parallel processing, and suggested a new method for investigating natural reading: RSA+MEG/EEG +Eye tracking.

Reading the headlines about the war in the middle east can make you feel hopeless. But a few neuroscientists are trying to build bridges between young Muslims and Jews. Here is the story of NeuroBridges 2024. rezashadmehr.blogspot.com
