New @netstim.org publication alert: @bahnebahners.bsky.social in BRAIN out now: academic.oup.com/brain/advanc... A 🧵:
If you missed the original version of our VTA study, we now have an updated preprint with a new title and some new analyses. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
And were live! #optoDBS 2026 is oft to a great start here at Campus Biotech in Geneva. Christian Lüscher kicking off the conference - and since we are broadening the scope a lot: will we call it #optoMOD in the future?
It’s not at the FIL but across the square but indeed all welcome!
We are pleased to announce that the SPM for MEG/EEG course hosted by University College London will take place from Monday, May 18th to Thursday, May 21st, 2026! Registration is now open via the UCL Online Store:
It was a huge honor to spend 90 minutes talking with Karl Friston about the origins of human brain mapping, the SPM software, and the 'finishing school' at the FIL. Tune in here:
A recent @natneuro.nature.com paper analyzed lesion network mapping and raised concerns about the validity of the method. See below 👇 for our response. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

We have released a subset of our simultaneous MEG and subthalamic LFP recordings from people with Parkinson’s with clinical metadata. The data cover rest and movement tasks, medication on and off states, and include MEG‑derived virtual electrodes for SMA and bilateral M1. doi.org/10.6084/m9.f...

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is the principal source of dopaminergic input to the human prefrontal cortex and is hypothesised to play a central role in reward‑based learning. However, direct elect...

This dataset contains simultaneous magnetoencephalography and subthalamic local field potential recordings acquired during deep brain stimulation surgery for Parkinson’s disease. Acquisition and preprocessing procedures are detailed in Litvak et al., Brain 2011 (doi:10.1093/brain/awq332) and Litvak et al., Journal of Neuroscience 2012 (doi:10.1523/JNEUROSCI.0767-12.2012). All files are provided in FieldTrip raw format as defined in the FieldTrip data specification. Data from a subset of the original cohort are available due to ethical restrictions on data sharing.Recordings were obtained in two clinical states for each participant: after overnight withdrawal of dopaminergic medication and while receiving their usual medication. Clinical characteristics and medication doses are listed in subject_details.csv. Pre-operative motor scores were collected using standard clinical assessments.Experimental conditionsParticipants completed the following tasks:R: rest.SL: simple left-hand movement comprising a simultaneous button press with digits 2 to 4.SR: simple right-hand movement with the same gesture.CL: complex left-hand sequence consisting of successive presses of digits 2, 4 and 3.CR: complex right-hand sequence with the same pattern.Event timings for button presses are stored in the event channel.Recorded signalsThe dataset includes:Bipolar subthalamic local field potentials.Electro-oculography.Electromyography from the bilateral first dorsal interosseous muscles.Virtual electrode time series reconstructed from MEG for the supplementary motor area and bilateral primary motor cortices. Virtual electrode coordinates are reported in MNI space and were affine transformed to individual anatomy: SMA [−2 −10 59], left M1 [−37 −25 62], right M1 [37 −25 62].

Excited to talk at the FIL this next Wednesday - everybody welcome: www.ucl.ac.uk/brain-scienc... Thank you so much @himanshutyagi.bsky.social for organizing!
It was a tremendous honor to speak with the one and only Karl Friston – not about the Free Energy Principle, but for a change about the history of SPM. Did you know the very first version of SPM was programmed in Excel? That and much more here 👇👇 stimulatingbrains.org/79-karl-fris...

A recent paper in @natureportfolio.nature.com raised concerns about the lesion network mapping method. Our team of 16 coauthors analyzed >1000 lesions and 34 symptoms and found that "The methodological foundations of lesion network mapping remain sound" www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
