Alpha and Beta Frequency Modulations in Motion Prediction Reveal Mechanisms of Predictive Coding in Perception
Physiological Evidence for the Time-dependent Resolution of Response Conflicts
Abstract. Perception is an active process guided by prior knowledge and expectations, allowing the brain to optimize sensory processing and reduce uncertainty. Although modulations in alpha (7–13 Hz)…
Abstract. Cognitive control encapsulates the mental processes that support goal-directed behavior and overcome habitual/automatic drives. Traditional RT approaches obscure the temporal dynamics of…
Would You Agree If N Is Three? On Statistical Inference for Small N
"The plan is to kill off publicly funded academic science in this country."
Correct.
And that means killing off the whole US science and innovation industry.
Because it's all built on a foundation of basic research—which. can. only. be. funded. by. public. dollars.
When I was in my PhD, I TAed an upper-year fMRI course.
Seniors would design a study, scan each other, and then analyze the data.
Amazing course, and we had a great year with stars like Juliana Trach & Henry Jones.
They’re doing small-N block designs, so nobody finds anything, of course, except —

Abstract. Nonhuman primate studies traditionally use two or three animals. We previously used standard statistics to argue for using either one animal, for an inference about that sample, or five or…
Our interests in human memory and cognition encompass the cognitive and neural basis of working memory, attention, control, and consciousness.News Madison Symposium on Memory & Control. On 30 May 202...
Unbelievably honoured to read Tatiana Engel's (@engeltatiana.bsky.social) wonderfully written Preview on our work "Linking neural manifolds to circtuit structure in recurrent networks" (with @lpezon.bsky.social & @gerstnerlab.bsky.social) in this issue of Neuron

In this issue of Neuron, Pezon et al. introduce neural circuit models with flexible
connectivity structure that can generate low-dimensional population dynamics with
different distributions of single-...
Real-world Objects Scaffold Visual Working Memory for Features: Increased Neural Engagement When Colors Are Remembered as Part of Meaningful Objects

Abstract. Visual working memory is a core cognitive function that allows active storage of task-relevant visual information. Contrary to the common assumption that the capacity of this system is…
