Our new study (Debray*, Karami* et al.) explores how the brain encodes basic math concepts (integers, fractions, shapes). Samuel Debray led the 7T fMRI & behavioral work; I led the MEG.

New preprint!
Last year we showed humans adapt attention in a dimension-specific way when multiple things compete for attention. Now we read out the neural dynamics of this adaptation. doi.org/10.1101/2025.11.16.688701 w/ @mikefreund.bsky.social @theazalabak.bsky.social @wouterkool.bsky.social

Join us at the Max Planck Institute in Leipzig as a fully funded 4-year postdoc position (m/f/d) in Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience (Area: Social Cognition). Excellent infrastructure with a leading scientific network. Apply by 13 July: recruitingapp-5218.de.umantis.com/Vacancies/44...?
Excited to share our new review in Trends in Neuroscience with Gouki Okazawa @gouki-okazawa.bsky.social :
"The 'neat' and 'messy' in task-dependent neural geometry and computation"
where we reviewed what we know about the 'task-manager' in the brain.
A thread 👇
Very excited to share our latest paper led by @nbinish.bsky.social in @natneuro.nature.com
We demonstrate how a communication subspace channels higher-dimensional PFC dynamics into lower-D motor activity to enable efficient behavior using human iEEG.

📢 New paper out in @nathumbehav.nature.com:
we identify a previously undescribed fast thalamic oscillation (~19–45 Hz) in rare intracranial human recordings that appears specifically during wakefulness and REM sleep — but disappears during NREM sleep.

Latest preprint from @bodybrainbehaviour.bsky.social by @teresaberther.bsky.social and @martinasaltafossi.bsky.social on cardio-respiratory modulation of arousal and excitability states in the human brain - overlap, distinctions, and implications for brain-body #neuroskyence.

🚨 New preprint w/ Valerio Rubino and Peter Dayan: how do people discover and use compositional structure under constraints? osf.io/preprints/ps...
A key factor is a simple heuristic that favors reuse of repeated and symmetric fragments across scales, is robust to time pressure, and sped up RTs 🧵👇
Very excited to have this officially published:
A neural state space for episodic memories

Context-dependent behavior selects actions according to task demands. Using direct brain recordings in humans, Binish et al. uncover how coordinated population activity efficiently channels informatio...
Episodic memories are highly dynamic and change in nonlinear ways over time. This dynamism is not captured by existing systems consolidation theories …
