inTRACE2025 has come to a close — but the conversations, ideas, and connections we’ve sparked here are just the beginning.
To all the speakers, participants, institutions and friends who made these days so rich and inspiring: thank you.
You’ve helped us tracing a path between research and clinical practice, between cities, countries, and disciplines, and between what we know and what we still want to discover about the human brain.
📌 We’re just getting started.
Follow us here and https://t.co/Tf7iryZnAM for:
🔹 photos and videos from the event
🔹 key takeaways and featured talks
🔹 updates on future initiatives flagged inTRACE
Let’s keep in touch — and keep tracing.
“To understand the brain, you need more than data — you need dialogue, shared insight, and the courage to think together”

1/11 How does our brain's hierarchical organization impact its response to stimulation? We found striking differences between "high-order" networks (involved in complex cognition) vs "low-order" networks (handling sensory/motor functions) @NatureComms

Ever wonder why some brain regions are more excitable? Using intracranial stim and recordings in humans, our team led by @Momi@saraparmi@StanfordBrain@andreapigorini@neurodidact @KellerStanfordU discovered a fascinating hierarchy in these neural responses 🧠⚡️
5/ Our paper "A science of consciousness beyond psuedo-science and pseudo-consciousness" can be viewed OPEN ACCESS here @NatureNeuro https://t.co/hK7AtEyyu3
InTrace workshop:
The intracranial connections between clinics and neuroscience.
Parma, Auditorium Credit Agricole, 1-4 April 2025

1/🧵 New (long) preprint: Biological naturalism and conscious artificial intelligence. In which I explore the prospects for, and pitfalls of, AI that is, or irresistibly appears to be, conscious. @sussexcentre .@CIFARnews https://t.co/k2AXPoLLVT #ExMachina
Our latest review "An integrative, multiscale view on neural theories of consciousness" is now out on @NeuroCellPress. Congrats @andreapigorini and all authors! @LaStatale

1/ IIT can and should be critiqued, but this letter, despite many admirable signatories (& colleagues/friends) is disappointing. The accusation of pseudoscience is serious & clickbaity & IMO the letter doesn't justify it https://t.co/W9n6XkZz3S
Finally out!
Have a look at this comparison of ten different ESI methods by exploiting a high-density real EEG dataset for which the ground truth is known

@eLife 7/12 Interestingly we replicated the results for 2 independent dataset as well as for both high and low voltage TEPs data @NigelRogasch@andreapigorini
Our latest "TMS-EEG and resting-state EEG applied to Altered States of Consciousness: Oscillations, Complexity, and Phenomenology" is now out (in press) on @iScience_CP. Congrats to @KatrinPreller and colleagues @UZH_en https://t.co/8WaTYq0bVO
