Do persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder show disrupted Bayesian integration of perceptual priors and sensory likelihoods? Intruiging new psychophysical study suggests they do not. osf.io/249rv

In our now published Perspective in Nature Rev Neurosci, we propose that six main mechanisms of neural #oscillations contribute to multi-timescale neural dynamics in #unisensory and #multisensory integration nature.com/articles/s4158… Springer Nature The vOICe vision BCI 😎🧠

Brain-wide imaging confirmed that neuronal circuits came ‘online’ (during development) fully tuned, without requiring activity-dependent plasticity. Thus, complex sensory-guided behaviors can emerge through activity-independent developmental mechanisms.

Happy to share that our work applying precision mapping to individuals with depression sampled longitudinally over an extended period has been published this week in @nature. Brief recap of the main findings and their potential implications below. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Come do a PhD with us in Oslo! 📢 There are 6 PhD positions announced at our unit, with the possibility to apply for a project in my lab, focused on computational methods to investigate chronic pain. Please DM/email me if you're interested. Due Oct. 31. kristiania.no/om-kristiania/…

Investigation of the spatial relationship between vascular and neuronal activity elicited by single whiskers across cortical columns and layers shows capillaries fine-tune blood flow based on distant activity and encode laminar-specific activity patterns nature.com/articles/s4159…

zen philosophy for non-humans

Others have already said this, but I have to agree: this is truly one of the most impressive fMRI papers I've read. An astounding amount of careful work to identify something new and valuable. I will be thinking about it for a long time. nature.com/articles/s4158…
