Hi #Neuroscience community! Please help. Does anyone know about Substantia Nigra (SN) hemispheral #lateralization effects of dopamine production or connectivity? If you don't know the answer please share on so someone who knows will see this!

Interoception: The “sixth” sense that shapes our wellbeing Have you ever noticed your heart rate increase while watching a scary scene in a movie? Or how one moment you feel totally fine, and the next moment there is a burning itch on your leg that you need t...

How do we know when we're hot, cold, or in pain? The answer is a sixth sense you may not have known existed.

Serena Chen teaches us all about interoception in this week's post: pennneuroknow.com/2024/04/16/i...

Thoughts on MNE vs EEGlab? Where should I invest my time in learning?

Context:
New to EEG stuff
I mainly code in Python
Interested in TMS-EEG stuff.

A complex multipanel figue illustrating the links between interoception and multiscale brain body dynamics.

Interest in brain-body coupling is rising. Current methods typically focus on a single brain-body axis, like heart-brain, in isolation. @danlikesbrains.bsky.social, @jgross.bsky.social, and I argue that the brain and body exhibit complex, multi-scale dynamics. Read more: osf.io/preprints/ps...

What Musk's Neuralink will actually do on hype and science

Elon Musk says Neuralink will merge human brains with artificial intelligence. How realistic are these ideas?

Is this our future, or are Musk’s ideas just fantastical sci-fi imaginations?

Timing is important, but how do we get better at it? In the latest issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, we show how the Default Mode and Timing Networks interact to give rise to timing improvements. #neuroskyence

Backlog in announcing preprints, but here's goes! Preprint #3 by Lijun An doi.org/10.1101/2024... proposes DeepResBat, a deep learning alternative to ComBat that harmonizes MRI while accounting for covariates. We show large improvements over classical & deep learning baselines

This AI rat fiasco has generated some of the best laughs of the year for me. It was bound to happen, some AI image slipping through peer review, but this particular one is just more than anyone could hope for.

I’m excited to announce our new preprint -- Neural codes track prior events in a narrative and predict subsequent memory for details! URL: https://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2024.02.13.580092v1 (1/8)
