@shangao.bsky.social developed a predictive model that maps prefrontal fNIRS activity to whole-brain fMRI during movie-watching! we now show that the model generalizes across samples and movies!

Activism and Science: Anne Urai and Clare Kelly on responding to the climate and biodiversity crises
How an economic framework may inspire new ways to tackle the climate crisis.
1/ Why are so many scientists silent on the climate crisis?
We interviewed neuroscientists @anne-urai.bsky.social & @clarekelly.bsky.social on their participatory workshops designed to stimulate scientists from awareness to activism.

Mapping patterns of thought onto brain activity during movie-watching
Decoding brain activity using a novel paradigm unveils distinct neural signatures of subjective experiences during movie-watching.
Interested in understanding what brain activity during movies means from the perspective of the viewer? Then you absolutely need check out this amazing study by @ravenwallace.bsky.social from THinC Lab out now in @elife.bsky.social

Have you wondered where scene perception and memory intersect in the brain?
Do you want to localize these areas?
In a preprint, @carolinerobertson.bsky.social, Deepa Prasad, Brenda Garcia, and I detail this topography and release these parcels and our localizer.

I love it when a data-driven, methods-heavy paper ALSO starts with a Pissarro quote. This is great stuff, and likely of interest to many of us in the naturalistic space....Congrats @sciencebanshee.bsky.social !! π₯

Bidirectional brain-body interactions during natural story listening
When we listen to a story, our body is integrally involved in the experience. Madsen
and Parra provide evidence for a bidirectional link between body and brain by analyzing
electroencephalography, pup...
While you listen to stories, body and mind interact. There are a bunch of strange effects, in both directions:
The story modulates eye movements
Heart rate precedes pupil size, and brain activity
Breathing modulates pupil size
Rhythmic saccades entrain heart beats
