🚨A busy start of the year for the lab, with another preprint just out in PsyArXiv, with @lenapl.bsky.social's group. Fernando Gonzales Aste goes deep into the potential for neurophys brain imaging with MEG in severe mental illness research & transformation of care.

🚨new lab preprint; brain fingerprinting entirely revisited:
Can we differentiate individuals from just seconds of neurophysiological recordings with machine learning, without resorting to black-box approaches?
In this work, Maxence Lapatrie says 'yes'.

Grateful 🙏: family, trainees, colleagues, 🇨🇦, @mcgill.ca and now @crchum.bsky.social (CRCHUM) et @facmed-umontreal.bsky.social.
🚨New review paper ! Lovely to reconnect with Sheraz Khan around what we think is a timely review of the state of knowledge about brain electrophysiological markers of early/late Alzheimer’s disease pathophysiology, and what's left to discover.

A fascinating update about how deep and fast MEG noninvasive imaging can be: differentiation b/w thalamus subnuclei, slow vs fast sleep spindles, and the talent and skills of Emily Coffey & her team. Grateful for being aboard this collaborative work.

New study ✨!
⍺ regulates perceptual switches during binocular rivalry:
⍺↓ before dominant percepts, ↑ before mixed percepts + PO connectivity shifts from top-down to feedforward after perceptual alternations
