Very cool paper showing inhalation on increases visual perception and neural network activity. The evidence for moment-by-moment regulatory influences of peripheral signals on the brain’s perceptual processing keeps mounting

Out now in @natcomms.nature.com, our latest from @bodybrainbehaviour.bsky.social: Visual perception, oscillatory excitability markers, and network connectivity are modulated by the breathing rhythm - depending on how much you know about the stimulus.
