Purdue Assistant Professor seeing how infant movements teach our brains about our bodies. At home, I'm ~2.5 years into an 18+ year developmental experiment named Elaina.
Views are my own (but think what it says about society that I have to say that...)

Big thanks to @sfnjournals.bsky.social for highlighting our upcoming paper! We’re mapping out how the distinct building blocks of REM sleep—tonic and phasic dynamics—actually develop and organize in early life. Can’t wait for the final version to drop soon!

So can you use EMGs to detect twitches. In short - yes. But there's a couple of catches.
1) you're recording from a single muscle (maybe even just a few muscle fibers) so you're getting a limited look at movement.
2) There's WAY more false negatives (only ~20% of twitches are detected vs. video)
