A āuniversalā pattern of cortical brain oscillations may be less ubiquitous than previously proposed.

Excited to share that our MEG project is now out in Current Biology! We show how visual content codes relate to motor oscillations in telling time.
Huge thanks to Quirin Gehmacher, Peter Kok, Matt Davis and Clare Press (bsky links below).š§µ

The debate highlights opposing views on how the cortex transmits information.

Big thank you to my co-authors, the editor and the reviewers.
Two EEG studies in healthy human adults suggest that choice history and stimulus probability-induced biases in somatosensory perception are reflected in distinct prestimulus beta power modulations acr...

I enjoyed reviewing this study. Fascinating you get improved decoding of feedback signalling on memantine while ketamine is thought to disrupt it (both NMDA-ant). Could subtle differences in ketamine and memantine beyond NMDA-ant be relevant to psychosis? (Memantine being much less psychotomimetic)
@dotproduct.bsky.social's first first author paper is finally out in @sfnjournals.bsky.social! Her findings show that content-specific predictions fluctuate with alpha frequencies, suggesting a more specific role for alpha oscillations than we may have thought.

Out now @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social, w/ @akalt.bsky.social & @drmattdavis.bsky.social.
Are sensory sampling rhythms fixed by intrinsically-determined processes, or do they couple to external structure? Here we highlight the incompatibility between these accounts and propose a resolution [1/6]
Super happy to share my very first first-author paper out in
@sfnjournals.bsky.social! We show content-specific predictions are represented in an alpha rhythm. Itās been a beautiful, inspiring, yet challenging journey.
Huge thanks to everyone, especially @peterkok.bsky.social @jhaarsma.bsky.social
@peterkok.bsky.social and I wrote a book chapter on how layer specific fMRI can shine light on disorders hallmarked by perceptual disturbances. This is part of a series on Perceptual Dysregulation in Psychiatric Nosology edited by @skhalsa.bsky.social and Al Powers link.springer.com/chapter/10.1...
Welcome to Maastricht University! Are you fascinated by how the brain remembers and predicts information, and how it can tell apart representations of past and future? At Maastricht University, you wi...
Predictions of future events have a major impact on how we process sensory signals. However, it remains unclear how the brain keeps predictions online in anticipation of future inputs. Here, we combin...
Perceptual disturbances occur across various sensory domains and contribute to significant suffering in numerous psychiatric and neurological conditions. Despite decades of research into the neural me...

We show that memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory Kanizsa triangles, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing.

Memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory contours, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing in human visual perception.
Hellohello again! Tomorrow at 5:15pm Iām giving a short talk on our latest MEG study about our very well-loved oscillating perceptual predictions @meguki2025.bsky.social. Come by and talk brains!
There are amazing talks and very cool science happening all around! MEGUKI 2025š
