Spontaneous actions, like spontaneous speech, can we quantify with a practical clinical measure? This is what we came up with @ks_horne @DrPhilipMosley

It was awesome to play a small role in this super cool study led by @ks_horne & @GailARobinson validating a non-verbal task to quantify #apathy in #neurodegeneration Check out this paradigm!

I'm glad to say that my first paper as a postdoc at @LCBS_Lab is now out in JoCN! Check it out to know more about the neural basis of speech errors in healthy participants: direct.mit.edu/jocn/article-…

Neural Correlates of Naturally Occurring Speech Errors during Picture Naming in Healthy Participants

Abstract. Most of our knowledge about the neuroanatomy of speech errors comes from lesion-symptom mapping studies in people with aphasia and laboratory paradigms designed to elicit primarily phonol...

Our paper on using Optimal Transport to compare human cortical surfaces was accepted at #NeurIPS22 🥳 We implement a new OT solver (FUGW) to compare human brains although their anatomy and functional activity patterns differ a lot. arxiv.org/abs/2206.09398 github.com/alexisthual/fugw

Had a lot of fun writing this small journal club article for @NatRevPsych about the original 'Flash Lag Effect' paper (Nijhawan, 1994). Also a handy excuse to make my own demo! Full-text link: rdcu.be/cZkFo
