Nice paper. But is it really "seemingly implausible" that you can predict "what you are doing" from "how you move" (even if that is just reconstructed from camera poses)?
I've been waiting some years to make this joke and now it’s real:
I conned somebody into giving me a faculty job!
I’m starting as a W1 Tenure-Track Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt in a week (lol), in the Faculty of CS and Math
and I'm recruiting PhD students 🤗
Amazing, Richard! Very happy for you!
RIP David Lynch.
I treasure the way you shaped my view of the world.

Recent studies found pronounced neuromodulation in the early visual cortex due to locomotion and spontaneous body movements in mice but not in non-human primates. We reconciled this dichotomy in this new open-access feature review @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social

Help bluesky neurohivemind!
If you know of any computational / theoretical work modelling neuromodulators please share it 🙏 if you don't, please retweet!
I am a bit afraid the whole Starter Pack business leaves behind trainees — make sure to follow / repost them if their work interests you so their voices are heard #PsychSciSky #neuroskyence #compneurosky
I have deleted all of my tweets from X using tweetdelete.net. Well worth the $3.99 fee for one month to remove all 9,609 of them, and super easy to use.
Happy to post here for the first time and let the world know that we just published a new paper!
Please take a look if you are interested in context-dependent decision making, across-area interactions and low-rank RNN 👇

Many researchers in cognitive neuroscience and deep learning seem to assume that inference in the brain is hierarchical.
Our new Nature Reviews Neuroscience paper questions this assumption and proposes the shallow brain hypothesis.

Check out this new paper! Led by @mehdiazabou.bsky.social and @evadyer.bsky.social, we show that it is possible to get SOTA brain decoding with transfer across individuals and tasks!
The key is a clever way to tokenize spiking data for transformers.

my first paper ever is out now in PNAS 🎉🔥!! ( ꈍᴗꈍ) (w/ Simon van Gaal, @juliaha.bsky.social, @smfleming.bsky.social and @fahrenfort.bsky.social) we introduced a novel method to distinguish between effects in subjective experience from effects in decision-making. let me know what you think!
New preprint:
"Tracking the distance to criticality in systems with unknown noise"
By Brendan Harris, w/ Leonardo Gollo.
We identify new, noise-robust time-series features for tracking the distance to criticality

Now that this fascinating trial of ketamine masked by anesthesia has been published in Nature Mental Health, time to repost my blog post discussing this study back when it was published as a pre-print.

Just hit 8035 code sent! Thank you all so much for donating codes and spreading the word to get more researchers and clinicians here.
There are ~850 codes left to distribute, and I just cleared the request list. If you know anyone looking to join bsky, send them my way! 🧪

Nice change of pace putting the multi-channel #MEG #EEG data aside for a moment and looking at two inconspicuous 1-D signals that share more dynamics than we thought. Learned some things about respiration from @danlikesbrains.bsky.social along the way! wdyt? #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky
The link between respiration and arousal is a bit more puzzling than widely assumed, as pointed out in the great review by non-blue Martin Schaefer and others from @odorjohan.bsky.social 's lab. Led by @ckeitelsci.bsky.social, we try to advance things a little with pupillometry.

I will probably hire one PhD student for science of science and one to fit big models to neural data/ neuroAI. Relevant prior experience and love for nerding out/ building algorithms and math will be needed.
Has anyone here seriously considered leaving science?
Why did you stay?
The German research foundation (DFG) now explicitly allows the use of generative AI (e.g. ChatGPT) for grant applications & scientific publications, as long as the scientist is transparent about their use. GenAI for grant reviews is prohibited given their confidentiality.

Most academics know that MDPI is not the most reputable publisher but this is particularly grim: a special issue in which 27th of the 28th papers are authored by the two guest editors.
