🚨 New preprint alert! 🚨
Excited to share @maxglev’s latest work on how pervasive sensory sampling shapes stable, detailed perception.
Discover the visual illusion of filling-in and how it’s influenced by micro-saccades.
Check it out! 👁️✨

Cross-regional similarities in aperiodic dynamics? Connectivity related to cognition and age? Come see my poster, “Functional Connectivity in Aperiodic Brain Activity at Rest” (1649), tomorrow and Thursday at #OHBM2024 to learn more!

I'm very fond of JM Coetzee's "The Lives of Animals", one of the best pieces of writing in animal ethics of the last 30 years, and freely available online too (tannerlectures.utah.edu/_res…). It has some wonderful passages, such as (1/2):

🚨new paper!
1️⃣ We continue our journey to discovering more about our individual neurophysiological traits extracted from remarkably short brain recordings—asa 30 seconds—this time in older individuals and patients.

Our new sEEG study is out on BioRxiv: tinyurl.com/4afh3b9n! Using 3 face detection experiments and recording from >3000 channels, we found a neural code that reflected evidence accumulation for conscious perception and perceptual confidence! 👇

Excited to share our latest paper in @iScience_CP with @mlisi6, @iris_groen & @TesDekker
We found profound differences in how children and adults can use prior knowledge to perceive hidden images ...

Rapid invisible frequency above 50Hz has proven a powerful tool in MEG studies on attention and reading. @TamasMinarik has uncovered the optimal parameters when at @thechbh (manus was in review in NI before the journal changes...): doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage…

Many researchers claim that “the feeling that our entire ‘subjective visual world’ is richly coloured…must be an illusion” (e.g. Chater, 2018). Our just-accepted Stage 2 Registered Report results show that that’s not quite true: osf.io/yuq2v

Exciting day for me - @LChittka and I have been awarded a grant of around $1m by @open_phil to look for markers of sentience in insects, and we are recruiting *TWO* postdocs. The ads are here, and please DM or email if you have questions: qmul.ac.uk/jobs/vacancies/it…

During experimental design, IIT proponents insisted on having participants merely watch long images, without checking what they were conscious of, or for how long.
This is a regression compared to many previous designs, eg nature.com/articles/nn0701_7… or nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

As a member of @ArcCogitate’s Scientific Advisory Board, I stand by the project PI’s, co-investigators and their talented trainees.
No human enterprise is perfect but this one is about advancing knowledge and the scientific praxis.
This past pseudo-weekend has been exhausting.
