What is the role of fast ripples? Pathological or stochastic? Grateful to be involved in this work with Laurent Sheybani et al

Like buses - another preprint showing the first evidence to our knowledge of a reward signal from the ventral tegmental area

Recent results from my group on altered memory inference and theta rhythm in people with post ictal psychosis - take a look!

Proud to do the London to Brighton cycle for @epilepsysociety and just about missed the rain. I dislike Ditchling hill

Excellent time with my team at the IEC Portugal 2025. Arjun presenting on anhedonia in epilepsy using a novel game and Seren looking at NORSE predictors

[umesh vivekananda @Documiev]

What a series - drama to the end!

we were cited by this paper on hippocampal activity in homing pigeons - may well be my favourite study this year!

This just out, the potential of using TMS in stratifying post ictal psychosis

Preprint on the a negative study using the three armed bandit reward learning task in people with and without anhedonia, however the story looks quite different in chronic neurological disorders..coming soon..

Massive congrats to my PhD student Arjun Ramaswamy who has been selected to present an abstract at the OHBM 2025 Annual Meeting in Brisbane, Australia, and has also been awarded the Merit Abstract Award. Wish I was there especially as it is raining in UK #OHBM2025
