This is the strongest ephys evidence so far for a generative model in the brain that I know of.
Congratulations @WadiaVarun! Wonderful collaboration with @UeliRutishauser on science that could only be done in humans.
And please check out Fig. 5FG. This is new since biorxiv and really surprised me: the mean response to imagery and viewing is actually the same & there are many cells that respond only during imagery--challenging the idea that signal strength is what distinguishes reality from imagination.
Congratulations Thomas! I had the pleasure of watching the project come to fruition since the beginning of my PhD and it (along with relevant discussions) had a big impact on how I view the cognitive neuroscience of memory. And I'm equally excited about our iEEG collaborations!
I am excited to share that our paper is now published in Nature Human Behavior! Check it out here: https://t.co/6E5pGjz29Q. Thanks to my PI, Katherine Duncan, and to my collaborators for their support on this journey! Stay tuned for an iEEG follow up 🧠

(1/6) Thrilled to share our triple-N dataset (Non-human Primate Neural Responses to Natural Scenes)! It captures thousands of high-level visual neuron responses in macaques to natural scenes using #Neuropixels.

Ever wondered what pupil size can tell us about our sleep?
In our new work we show that pupil size dynamics correspond to macrostructure and microstructural events in human sleep, and also influences our response to auditory stimulation (video).

Thrilled that our design becomes the NHB feb cover image! !! Folding fan = 1D-2D memory reorganization. Idea by Huan Luo, Calligraphy by Nai Ding. Poem by QuYuan (300bc) (question about the universe).
Toronto Pearson is aware of an incident upon landing involving a Delta Airlines plane arriving from Minneapolis. Emergency teams are responding. All passengers and crew are accounted for.
Cool @ScienceTM study showed it’s possible to incorporate LED lights into flexible cortical electrodes, thus allowing direct visualization of brain activity during intra-operative functional mapping.

@Spottingthespot@SpringerNature Where the “non-physical” meaning of abstract was taken thus becoming 抽象 (“deprived of manifestation”, also “pumping elephant”). And it got translated again to English (unfortunately using a crappy software)
@Spottingthespot@SpringerNature This is really laughable and there seems multiple layers to this error. The correct Chinese word for abstract is 摘要 which has nothing to do with pumping elephant. However, I guess the authors translated their Chinese manuscript to English and BACK to Chinese at some point
What a treat to start the new year with a new paper from the lab, with @azayhara ! @hongyu_chang and Wenbo Tang found that pupil dynamics in naturally sleeping mice uncover a microstructure of sleep that organizes different types of memory replay: https://t.co/okaSSFyEfs
It’s time for THE charger.
Today, the USB-C becomes officially the common standard for charging electronic devices in the EU.
It means better-charging technology, reduced e-waste, and less fuss to find the chargers you need.
