Sensory stimuli dominate over rhythmic electrical stimulation in modulating behavior Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) modulates entrainment to rhythmic auditory stimuli, but the details of this interaction are not clear. This study shows that the effects of tACS dep...

How does the brain track rhythms—and can we hack it?
In our new study, just published @plosbiology.org, we dive deeper into neural entrainment—how the brain synchronizes to rhythms in our environment—and explore whether transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can modulate this process.

A “fine-cuts” approach disentangling psychopathic, autistic and alexithymic traits in their associations with affective, cognitive and motor empathy Atypical empathy is seen in relation to psychopathy and autistic traits; however, studies typically conflate affective and cognitive facets of empathy…

Not all #empathy is the same. In this new study led by the brilliant Julia Ayache, we unpack how psychopathic, autistic, and alexithymic traits relate differently to affective, cognitive, and motor empathy—using self-reports and a Social #NeuroAI agent 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Background: when going off X/Twitter, I got out of habit of promoting my articles online. I’d like to highlight two articles on the cerebellum that I published in 2024, which also provides some context to my current call. I’m excited about revealing a cerebellum-behavioural correlation.

Dear colleagues of the MEG community

I have recently commenced a project at Aarhus University, Denmark, called: Re-integration of the cerebellum . Therefore, I am recruiting a Postdoc for 2½ years to begin September 1st 2025. The deadline for the application is March 20th 2025.

It's a crazy time, but I've been sitting on this for a while and I want to get word out. I've been thinking about the role of sensory feedback in rhythmic behaviour, and I wrote a synthesis/reflection/modeling piece. Accepted by J. Music Perception in August! osf.io/preprints/ps... Thread...
