Sooooo, I guess it’s Dr Weightman now… PhD viva ✅

Massive thanks to @GaleaLab and @cjstagg for being such great examiners (& @Shushu__Chen).

Can’t thank @NeuroNed @jsbrittain and @chris_miall enough for all their help and support!

Excited that this will include two teams led by @Mels_Science and @benosaka looking at future adoption of novel neurotechnologies 👏
@OxfordWIN @OxHealthBRC

[ARIA @ARIA_research]

We’re excited to announce the 18 teams we’re funding in Precision Neurotechnologies 🧠 They’ll work to unlock new ways to interface with the brain at the neural circuit level, with unprecedented precision. (1/3)

Question: How does #aging impact #motor #learning?

Answer: Aging enhances implicit learning, but reduces explicit motor learning.

@neuroplastics students Karen Wendt and Bronwyn Gavine with fantastic brain stimulation presentations at #BBIconf2023
@NDCNOxford @OxfordWIN @stimcp

[The Neuroplastics @neuroplastics]

We worked with @SameYouOrg to create a guide and video about sleep after brain injury - great to see such an important aspect of care being taken seriously!

[Different Strokes - Stroke Support UK @diffstrokes]

Did you know how important sleep is and how much it can help recovery after strokes? One of our studies has noticed a declined in recruitment so if you can help with this study please visit https://t.co/QpmwcPldXz

[Melanie Fleming @Mels_Science]

Today we @OxfordWIN hosted a workshop to bring people together to discuss ways of improving awareness and understanding of the importance of #sleep after #stroke. A big thank you to everyone who provided input and to @UniofOxford OPEN for funding.

[Emma Garratt @Em_Garratt]

Delighted to attend + present at the sleep after stroke workshop with @MattWeightman26 @Mels_Science and colleagues. Great intro to their survey highlighting how important stroke survivors place sleep in their recovery + @diffstrokes updates on their support services #strokerehab

[The Neuroplastics @neuroplastics]

Happy #WorldSleepDay! Sleep is essential for health, and all animals and people do it. Here at Oxford our Plasticity Group is interested in the link between sleep, movement learning, and stroke rehabilitation. (1/3)

Frostiest but fastest 10k since October... the countdown to @LondonMarathon is on! ⏲️🏃🏽‍♀️ 5ish weeks to go and all for a good cause - aiming for £1800 for @LondonSport. Please share far and wide! All donations welcome 😁https://t.co/dYMNfblxSl

[Matt Weightman @MattWeightman26]

New paper alert! 🚨
Excellent work investigating the association between dopamine gene profiling and impulse choice/action on impulse control behaviours in Parkinson's disease - spearheaded by @ali_hall10, Hayley MacDonald and @NeuroNed

Check it out! 🧠

Check out our new preprint!

'Delineating memory reactivation in sleep with verbal and non-verbal retrieval cues'
https://t.co/VVox1XXEbn

We explored how memory cues with various acoustic properties affect oscillatory activity during slow-wave sleep @sacairney @mggaskell

[ASNR @ASNRehab]

Get ready for this fantastic symposium at #ASNR2023! It can be easy to take #sleep for granted, but it impacts many aspects of our daily lives and is important to consider in #neurorehabilitation. Learn more from our expert guests on Day 2 of the meeting!
