Had a great and inspiring time at this year’s Dallas Aging and Cognition conference!
Check out our cool new preprint on heart-brain coupling induced by TMS over the DLPFC! ⚡️🧠📈
Thanks to @matteo ferrante, @andreabruera.bsky.social and @gesahartwigsen.bsky.social for this exciting collaboration! 👏

🧠 How do semantic and executive control dissociate in the frontal lobe? Applying TMS to IFG and pre-SMA, we find:
⚡ Specialization
▸ IFG = semantic (and executive) control
▸ pre-SMA = executive functions
🔄 Compensation between both regions during single-site disruption!

More from our postdocs! This week @drsandramartin.bsky.social gave a presentation at @mpicbs.bsky.social, charting a new way forward to understand language processing in the aging brain 🍁

🚨 New preprint!! Using condition-and-perturb TMS, we show that functional interaction between multimodal and modality-specific cortices is causally relevant for conceptual knowledge retrieval: ssrn.com/abstract=510...
In case you need a proxy for head circumference for your #NIBS meshes: pynibs.head_circumference() should do the trick.

Semantic control guides the targeted and context-based retrieval from semantic memory. The overlap with and dissociation from domain-general executive control in the frontal lobe remains contentious. ...
Hello world! We are the Cognition and Plasticity (CoPla) lab @mpicbs.bsky.social in Leipzig, Germany. Our lab combines neuroimaging methods (like fMRI) with non-invasive brain stimulation (like TMS) to investigate plasticity in cognitive brain networks.
Thrilled to share our latest research with PhD student @zijianfeng.bsky.social and Postdoc @drsandramartin.bsky.social! We investigated TMS-induced heart–brain coupling (HBC) as a potential biomarker for personalized stimulation targets in the left DLPFC: doi.org/10.1101/2025...
