New RSPCA animal welfare science update, featuring research on rehoming stray cats, health of pet rabbits, alternatives to sow crates, the welfare benefits of slower-growing chickens, horse training methods, and social housing of crocodiles rspca.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/public/Uploa...
Time to update our preprint on respiration and pupil dynamics, now with a directed connectivity analysis and a few wrinkles ironed out. Frequency coupling across different task contexts and breathing domains in three MEG experiments - look no further: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧠🟦
Viewing brain function through the lense of other physiological processes has critically added to our understanding of human cognition. Further advances though may need a closer look at the interactio...
We have a new preprint out, with Teresa Schuhmann, Alex Sack and Catherine Tallon-Baudry. I think our findings give some interesting leads on the various mechanisms underlying visceral influences on the motor system and how we conceptualize interoception as a whole. #neuroskyence
The cardiac, respiratory and gastric rhythms independently modulate corticospinal excitability https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.09.10.612221v1
Interoception refers to the sensing of the internal state of the body and encompasses various bodily
Oooh it's finally here thanks to biorxiv! I'll do a proper thread when I can but for now see this. We propose a measure of replication distance using reproducibility rate (RR); or from another perspective, we suggest that RR is better used this way than for other purposes. #metasci
Statistics in service of metascience: Measuring replication distance with reproducibility rate https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.08.05.606644v1
Motivated by the recent putative reproducibility crisis, we discuss the relationship between replica

This was a fun new style of science communication to participate in for me. You can read the back and forth between 3 (philosophically-inclined) scientists about the definition of "non-testable" theories and what role they can play in neuroscience, moderated by me!
Happy to share that @anilseth.bsky.social@thomasandrillon.bsky.social@ademertzi.bsky.social@benjikozuch.bsky.socialacademic.oup.com/nc/pages/edi...
We are delighted to announce that ten years after its launch, Neuroscience of Consciousness will now be led by a new editorial team. As founding editors, we hav
Visceral afferent training in action: The origins of agency in early cognitive development - new preprint on the implications of rhythmic visceral dynamics for the development of self, agency, & diversity, by @danfeuerriegel.bsky.social@jonnorobinson.bsky.social@kperrykkad.bsky.socialosf.io/nvj45
Are you in Hamburg for #PuG2024 and want to chat about cardio-respiratory oscillations, bodily self and agency? I’ll be at poster P.269 for Session 1 on Thursday, we can dive into some pilot findings and discuss next analysis steps together 🫀🫁
Always use a mic - for talk, questions and answers. Even if you have a loud voice. Because a mic, used correctly, improves clarity not just volume and thus makes it easier for people with hearing loss and non-native language users to follow.
