Wonderful to host @AFornito (@MonashUni ) at our Cognitive Brain Dynamics Seminar series today! 🧠 He walked us through geometric eigenmodes from their recent Nature paper and how they serve as a structural basis for large-scale brain network dynamics, as well as recent developments based on these ideas. Great talk followed by a rich discussion on where this goes next. Thanks to everyone who joined! #Neuroscience #BrainDynamics #Networks #Eigenmodes

It is my pleasure to host @AFornito for Cognitive Brain Dynamics seminar at CBDL @iitjodhpur

🧠 Can we change what sounds people *hear* by tuning their brain rhythms? Our new preprint, led by Shreya, Debottam, and @VinseaAv from CBDL, is now live on bioRxiv address this research question! tACS at & around a person's Individual Alpha Frequency (IAF) reduced illusory /ta/ sound percepts in the McGurk effect (n=27), leaving congruent syllables intact. A Kuramoto model provides a mechanistic account of the pattern and neuromodulatory effect on the behavioural alterations. 📄 doi.org/10.64898/2026.10.07.… @iitjodhpur @bsbe_iitj #tACS #NeuroscienceModulation of the speed of Intrinsic Alpha Frequency (IAF) with tACS modulates variability of illusory speech perception biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Thrilled to share that our latest paper, "A generalized scaling law reveals synchrony-driven reorganization of brain dynamics across the human lifespan," now out in @PLOSCompBiol Thanks to all the wonderful collaborators in this work. journals.plos.org/ploscompbi…

🎉 Thrilled to share that our latest paper, "A generalized scaling law reveals synchrony-driven reorganization of brain dynamics across the human lifespan," has been accepted by @PLOSCompBiol! Led by brilliant Suman Saha with a fantastic group of collaborators, Syamal Dana, Priyanka Chakraborty, Tomasz Kapitaniak, Chittaranjan Hens, @arpansview, Gustavo Deco 🧠, we extend Taylor's law to signed brain signals using the RMS of detrended activity. We propose a completely new metric of scaling, fully analytically derived and tested numerically on various distributions. We foresee that a great many applications could potentially emerge from this theoretical framework. Thanks @iitjodhpur @DBT_NBRC @IndiaDST @DBTIndia for continuing support for aging brain studies from the Cognitive Brain Dynamics Lab. 👥 In 840 people aged 18–88, aging steadily weakens the synchrony–scaling link 🎬 The link holds at rest but reorganizes during naturalistic tasks 🧩 Strongest in limbic, subcortical, and cerebellar networks ⚕️ Disrupted in ADHD, a promising clinical marker The framework reaches beyond the brain to any complex system, from climate to ecology to finance. 📄 Preprint: lnkd.in/ddYnYk-9 💻 Code: lnkd.in/duMh_3-f 👀 Watch out for the published version, appearing online soon!

Your Brain Spends Twenty Years Learning to Argue With Itself - Daily Neuron covers a wonderful piece of our recent commentary for general audience by George Seeman. dailyneuron.com/competitive-…

🧠 Latest from Cognitive Brain Dynamics Lab: a New commentary published in @CommsBio: brain regions don't just "cooperate" — 25-40% of connections are competitive, conserved across humans, macaques & mice. Adding this to whole-brain models boosts fit from r=0.42→0.87, with big implications for aging & neurodegeneration.

Very happy to see Ankit is defending his thesis today. Please join us to experience a very interesting take on how our brain codes for internal and external directed attention and modulates memory
