I am incredibly proud to share my first, first-author paper as a postdoc with @benhayden.bsky.social . How does the human hippocampus, known for encoding concepts, represent the meanings of words while listening to narrative speech? www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

“First, I do not sit down at my desk to put into verse something that is already clear in my mind. If it were clear in my mind, I should have no incentive or need to write about it. We do not write in order to be understood; we write in order to understand.” ― Cecil Day Lewis #WritingSky

I put some introductory #EEG / #MEG videos together, based on our introduction to #neuroimaging at the @mrccbu.bsky.social : youtube.com/playlist?lis.... They should cover the most common aspects of EEG/MEG analysis, including pre-processing, source estimation and functional connectivity.

I wrote a thing for @thetransmitter.bsky.social. The attack on scientific infrastructure happening in the US shows that relying on any one country is not a good option for science. We need to start supporting and building international, decentralised infrastructure for science.

“…the cerebellum has been shown to play a key role in several cognitive functions. However…the cerebellum has been largely overlooked and even deliberately excluded from ‘whole-brain’ neuroimaging studies…we propose that the continued exclusion…has limited our understanding…” 🧠🔬🤓

There's a movement in neuroscience suggesting we should be pursuing bigger bets with larger teams. I think there's a case for doing a bit of this, but I think it's a bad idea to prioritise it for two reasons, and a good case for saying we should be moving in the exact opposite direction. 🧠🧪
