Great work devised and undertaken by Fabiano Baroni comparing >100 statistics of dynamic structure (of synchrony, oscillations, phase relationships, spiking intensity, and variability) from multineuron spike trains, and evaluating them on synthetic and real-world data.

Everyone knows what synchrony is. But do we all mean the same thing? Do all measures capture the same phenomenon? New preprint with the highly incomparable Ben Fulcher

New paper on Oxytocin in marmosets from the lab is out. We find extensive OT projections throughout the brain similar to rodents. Great work by Arthur Lefevre that sets the stage for a new direction in marmosets onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jn…

Many moons ago, we revealed our Golden Record to the world – and it's still traveling with us beyond the heliosphere.

Congrats, NASA Europa Clipper and team, on this beautiful message. -V2

Neuroscientists interested in the relationship between the brain and consciousness should think about this issue seriously! Great paper! Matthew Larkum Jaan Aru

Who's got MR technical skills - come join us - lots of positions - lots of roles! Get on it!

Excited to be a speaker at The Thinking Digital Conference in Gateshead next month, talking about video games and the science of inner experience. #gaming #neuroscience #innerexperience

Excited to share the programme for #LewyBodyUK2024 to be held in Newcastle on 18th June 2024 for researchers and clinicians. Brilliant speakers include Prof Heather Mortiboys Elie Matar Emily Henderson JohnOBrien Dag Aarsland. Sign-up today! with John-Paul Taylor Claire O'Callaghan

Your daily reminder that the cerebellum is pretty amazing.

New results now live! Most exciting is Brendan Harris mouse #neuropixels application.
We find that brain areas higher in the visual hierarchy are closer to #criticality (in a way that cannot be detected with existing #timeseries measures) 😄🐭⬇️

The concept of ‘abduction’ came up in twitter discussion and people asked what it means. This may be a good occasion for a short thread on a recent paper about the challenges in characterising ‘abduction proper’. docs.lib.purdue.edu/cgi/viewconten… 1/n
