The respiratory cycle modulates distinct dynamics of affective and perceptual decision-making Author summary Breathing is more than just a vital process for survival — it influences how we perceive and interact with the world around us. Recent research suggests that the rhythm of breathing, fr...

"The respiratory cycle modulates distinct dynamics of affective and perceptual decision-making"
doi.org/10.1371/jour...
We show how respiratory 'tidal computations' alter our decisons!

Locally induced traveling waves generate globally observable traveling waves Cortical traveling waves have been proposed as a fundamental mechanism for neural communication and computation. Methodological uncertainties currently limit the interpretability of non-invasive, extr...

Still playing the waiting game with the publication process 🤐😪😑 … but in the meantime, here’s some fresh evidence showing that cognitive conflict might actually feel rewarding. Who knew it could be fun? osf.io/c75tj

Our oscillations consensus paper is finally out as a preprint 🤩 thanks to everyone involved
arxiv.org/abs/2507.15639

/2 Huge thanks to all 39 authors, ecrs and seniors alike, especially @annekeitel.bsky.social for holding everything together, and @satupalva.bsky.social, Paul Sauseng, and Sonja Kotz for keeping this project on track.

/1 We took our sweet time (~3yrs) to put this into its final shape - but happy to say that the pre-print of an extensive review of brain rhythms in cognition - from a cognruro perspective - is now available. Please let us know what you think. #neuroskyence doi.org/10.48550/arX...

@scone-neuro.bsky.social has a great review coming soon led by @annekeitel.bsky.social. We summarize major oscillatory mechanisms and discuss open questions across a range of subfields in cog neuro. The preprint should be out soon.

Effect sizes still make only marginal appearances in cognitive neuroscience. A SCONe spin-off project aims to break some ground using alpha lateralisation as an example. #EEG #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky More here: sites.dundee.ac.uk/scone/2024/0...

We covered Pre-processing, Machine Learning and the HMP toolbox for discovering cognitive stages (very cool).

Also many new vacancies. Have fun!

Perceptual Cycles Travel Across Retinotopic Space Abstract. Visual perception waxes and wanes periodically over time at low frequencies (theta: 4–7 Hz; alpha: 8–13 Hz), creating “perceptual cycles.” These perceptual cycles can be induced when...

Summary of findings

I'm excited to share our preprint on musical rhythm processing 🎵🎵 We show that cortical tracking is influenced by pitch predictability, expertise & enjoyment.
