Interorgan crosstalk typically occurs via the bloodstream. We showed that brain-heart-gut interplay also occurs in their electrophysiology at infra-slow timescales. We found that fluctuations in the gut are typically followed by the brain and heart after tens of seconds.

Our brain-computer interface paper was just published in NeuroImage 🧠🫀🤖 We show that motor imagery engages specific brain-heart circuits associated with accuracy and learning through longitudinal sessions: doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...
Thinking about attending ICCN2026 in beautiful Cartagena? We have a dedicated session on brain-body interactions in clinical neurophysiology, together with Jessica Hazelton and @paulasalamone.bsky.social
What's the role of the brain-heart axis in the physiology of dying? Using a rodent model we found that physiological responses in the brain and heart, and their interaction, determine whether an individual survives an anoxic event followed by a resuscitation procedure

In Physics of Life Reviews: Brain-body interaction has revealed a role for interoception in cognitive functioning. I propose a roadmap on how to implement this knowledge into concrete engineering design for biology-inspired AI to, ultimately, reaching near-conscious machines

Well, chatgpt got the two versions of myself at work lol

Pleased to share the acceptance of our #ESCAN2026 Symposium: Dynamic brain-body interactions in perception, selfhood, and cognition across health and disease, featuring Francesca Garbarini, Nicholas Hedger, @jellinap.bsky.social and @paulasalamone.bsky.social, see you in Rome! @escaneu.bsky.social
