Well, you better consider the probability of mozzies in your current environment!
Go check out my PhD project finally summarized in a preprint:

Have you ever thought of why our human brain recognizes virtual faces as not being real🤖? Could the brain's responses vary when encountering the REAL and FAKE faces?

Wow, what an incredible and unforgettable week! #LINO23 was truly inspiring and I am grateful for amazing exchanges with great nobel laureates and fellow young researchers from all over the world. I really learned a lot. Thank you so much @lindaunobel, @maxplanckpress & @MPI_CBS

[Max Planck Society @maxplanckpress]

It was beautiful! The Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting ended today. All Max Planck participants - young scientists as well as Nobel laureates - thank you for the hospitality and the lively exchange. @lindaunobel #LINO23

[Tilman Stephani @TilmanStephani]

Also many thanks to @INeurocom, @UniLeipzig, @ga_leipzig for the support during my PhD. Looking forward to what will come next!

[Tilman Stephani @TilmanStephani]

I am super happy to finally announce: #PhDone! Many many thanks to everyone who made yesterday´s event so special! Thank you, Vadim Nikulin, for the great supervision and thank you @arnovillri as well as the whole dept. of neurology at @MPI_CBS for such an awesome environment!

[MPI für Kognitions- & Neurowissenschaften @MPI_CBS]

Congratulations to @TilmanStephani who was invited to the 72nd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting #LIN023 @lindaunobel 💐 He will meet outstanding scientists from all over the world in the field #Physiology #Medicine and certainly get inspired! https://t.co/Cp9WfTCDqe

[Elena Cesnaite @elena_cesnaite]

Happy to share our latest publication @MPI_CBS aiming to replicate and extend findings on age-related alterations of resting-state EEG features in a large sample of over 1700 datasets! Now as an open-access article at NeuroImage! https://t.co/8QUtRgyuAI

Out Now 👉 How critical is brain criticality?

💥Does the brain operate near a critical phase transition?

💥And why should we care ?

Check out (+share) our review in TINS @TrendsNeuro, hot out of the oven!

Let's make science, not war! Thousands of Russian scientists take a stand against #UkraineWar. Among them many colleagues @maxplanckpress. Thank your for your bravery. 🕊🇺🇦 https://t.co/PFWSSEiOuN

Our new preprint “Cardiac Activity Impacts Cortical Motor Excitability” is now out. In this work, we found that cardiac cycle 🫀 regulates motor activity 👋 through changes in cortical excitability. > https://t.co/apTp08rfhK

[Martin Grund @GrundMar]

Great news: My final PhD paper has been accepted for publication in #JNeurosci @SfNJournals. 🥳 We show that respiration phase-locking 🫁 to expected stimulus onsets 🖐⚡️ corresponds to highest heart rate 🫀 (and presumably cortical excitability). ➡️ https://t.co/wnZZxuBUZ1

Do you plan to use #fooof to calc oscillatory #EEG power or to estimate the 1/f exponent?

Hello @AcademicEEG people! If you are interested in studying the connectivity patterns with electrophysiology, please consider using HARMONI in your pipeline. It is the first signal-processing tool for suppressing spurious, harmonic-driven synchronizations. (1/4)

[Tilman Stephani @TilmanStephani]

Many thanks to the author team, @HodappAlice, @IdajiMina, @arnovillri, and Vadim Nikulin – as well as to our reviewers, @_rdgao and @nweisz2, for taking the time to provide excellent and truly constructive feedback during the open peer review process. Comments/questions welcome!

[Tilman Stephani @TilmanStephani]

Finally out in @eLife: We find that fluctuations of neural excitability, associated with pre-stimulus alpha oscillations, shape somatosensory intensity perception via initial cortical responses - yet with counter-intuitive modulations of evoked potentials. https://t.co/dyI7apcWJL

[Elena Cesnaite @elena_cesnaite]

I'm excited to share our latest work on alterations of periodic/aperiodic rsEEG activity and their link to cognitive functions in a large sample of older participants. Big thanks to all the co-authors and my two supervisors! https://t.co/pRCOZxVcNX

[Julian Kosciessa @JulianKosciessa]

Excited to share that work w. U. Lindenberger and @Garrett_Neuro is now out in @NatureComms! 📢📖

Using EEG and fMRI we show that cortical excitability modulation involving the thalamus supports the processing of complex information under uncertainty. 🧠
