Laboratory at the University of Utah recording neuronal activity from human neurosurgical patients in order to understand the computational basis of cognition

[David Chalmers @davidchalmers42]

seven years after an initial meeting in seattle in march 2018, the results of the @ArcCogitate adversarial collaboration on theories of consciousness have just been published in @Nature. congratulations to the whole cogitate team! https://t.co/QIiHUxLM68

Brain stimulation may be a solution for the unmet needs of people living with drug-resistant #epilepsy.

The lab of Dr. Elliot Smith (@50kDinar) at @UofUNeurosurg reviews the state of the clinical field and recent progress in preclinical animal research. https://t.co/oB4J7goLPC

Does TMS delivered to the dlPFC elicit a response in the subgenual ACC?

New work with intracranial EEG says yes!

Great article from @rshervin and @BShofty!

[Elliot Smith @50kDinar]

I'm hiring a postdoc to focus on analysis of the myriad human single neuron data that is sitting on our storage server. If you are interested in human neuron data, particularly how it might interact with LFP data, please reach out!

Another preprint from the lab that characterizes human single neuron responses to single pulse stimulation. Fantastic work from lead author @RhiaCowan, including @BornaliK, @RolstonJohn, @rshervin, @BShofty, @edmerix, & Cathy Schevon.

Thrilled to have been selected as an awardee by the @NIH/NIMH and grateful to have so many incredible mentors as a budding physician-scientist! @UtahNeurosci @UofUMedicine @UofUNeurosurg

[Justin Campbell, PhD @CampbellJustinM]

Check out our new preprint characterizing how human single-neuron activity is modulated by intracranial theta burst stimulation of the basolateral amygdala! 🧠⚡️

[SWC @SWC_Neuro]

Neuroscientists at SWC (@UCL) and @NDCNOxford (@UniofOxford) reveal how brain cells form a coordinate system for behavioural sequences.

📜🎉 I have a new preprint: a systematic review of clinical investigations of aperiodic activity!

I reviewed 143 reports from across 35 disorders, to summarize current results, evaluate current practices, and make some recommendations for future work:

Thanks @PFResearchTeam! Enjoyed presenting our preliminary results identifying neural activity underlying depression in PD (hint: beta power is not just for motor symptoms!). Pleasantly surprised at how many people stuck around for the last poster session of @SfNtweets too 😊

[Dan Goodman @neuralreckoning]

The problem with the Nobel prize is not just that they've again awarded not a single woman, although they should certainly be ashamed of themselves. The problem is our deference to these fossilised patriarchal elitist institutions, reflecting broader issues in scientific culture.
