Postdoc @LeoWaschke brings the 🔥, showing that single-neuron spiking variability in hippocampus dynamically tracks sensory content during memory formation. Our latest with @FabianKamp van den Elzen, Krishna, Lindenberger, & @UeliRutishauser biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 1/n
Absolutely outstanding multi-modal work on uncertainty in the aging brain by
@juliankosciessa.bsky.social
et al., many years in the making. EEG, fMRI, comp modelling, sub vs. cortical, this one has it all!
Now live in Nature Communications: nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Uncertainty contexts require flexible control.
(How) does the ability to manage task uncertainty differ in the aging brain?
Multimodal EEG/fMRI evidence is now out in Nature Communications. ⬇️🧵

What an honor to join the White House Conference on Women’s Health Research and celebrate the incredible gains over the past year. I am ever optimistic that progress will continue to accelerate at break-neck speed across sectors.

When I think about the status of women’s health it’s easy to get angry. But there is so much to be hopeful about. Follow @Bowers_WBHI for updates on our new initiative to advance women's brain health through deeply collaborative science. We need all of you behind this. 💫
Women's health can't wait. So take a look, join us, and then let's get to work. 👇🏽

My #AI4Neuro magnum opus:
Discovery of spiking network model parameters constrained by neural recordings, using simulation-based inference & generative “AI”.
(aka the answer to “how the f did you end up in Tübingen?”)
Here's what we have in store:

Check out the new preprint by @aroma_dabas on "Learning from imagined experiences via an endogenous prediction error". Excited to be part of this collaboration with Aroma, @rg_benoit and former office mate @HeidrunSchultz
@CCNBerlin
Excited to finally share the preprint of the major study of my PhD! 🥳 With @rasmusbruckner, @HeidrunSchultz and @rg_benoit , we investigated whether we can learn from imagined experiences much the same way that we learn from actual experiences. 1/5

New banger from @DrBMunn and co. TL/DR: coarse-graining multi-species calcium data allows us to link across scales and make some inferences about how information processing might work in the brain. Super fun collab with @eli_j_muller @DrBreaky & Ethan Scott

As a scientist, one of my absolute fav things to do is apply methods that we've developed to imaging datasets from the literature that we love to test our theories of how the brain is organised. Our newest paper in @CellReports led by @NatashaL_Taylor ticks all these boxes!

Today was a celebration and a call to action thanks to the tremendous leadership of @mariashriver @flotus and @potus, who just signed an EO dedicating $12B to women’s health research. Thank you for having me there to join this historic moment. Now let’s get to work 💪🏽

Why small mindedness is having big consequences @Brain1878
I live under its shadow. I suspect most of you do too. It is the great mountain of small things. The higher it gets, the bigger the shadow it casts: a malignant darkness that pervades our lives.

Intrigued to discover more about how DBS reveals & therapeutically impacts on the dysfunctional circuits behind different brain disorders, from OCD to dystonia? 🪄🧠
So were we! Join us on this deep dive from core to cortex – now out @NatureNeuro: nature.com/articles/s41593-0…

Thanks for the fantastic feedback on our paper, everyone.
We are over the moon! 💫
In case you are interested but you lack the time to read the entire thing, we wrote a one-page summary for @NatureNeuro that is freely available here: rdcu.be/dzqw2

🚨New pub!🚨 Is it possible to modulate sensory information processing in a non-invasive manner by modulating ongoing oscillatory activity in the prefrontal cortex in humans? Yes, we can!
Take a look at our Open Access pub @NatureHumBehav

The latest in a series of interviews I've been conducting for @_TheTransmitter: thetransmitter.org/connector…. I sat down with @misicbata and discussed his ideas on using network science to map the brain, including his beautiful work on Parkinson's disease with @alain_dagher. Enjoy!
