Delighted to announce the first study supporting reliability of neural markers of advanced meditation (jhana)
Now in Human Brain Mapping @OHBM
“Within-subject reliability of brain networks during advanced meditation: An intensively sampled 7 Tesla MRI case study”

A new principle for learning in neural networks called ‘prospective configuration’, which is more efficient in learning and consistent with neural and behavior data than backpropagation

New work led by Haoxin Zhang and @linjj4 shows using human intracranial recordings that post-encoding awake ripples enhance mnemonic discrimination for emotional events. Collab with Ivan Skelin, Bob Knight et al. @NatureComms @ucicnlm @UCIrvine nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
How does the hippocampal awake ripple play a role in facilitating emotional memory encoding? Excited to share my work with IvanSkelin and @linjj4, now published in @NatureComms!

Excited to share my new collaboration with Lukas Kunz (@lks_kunz ) in which we show that neurons in the human brain encode 2D positions in space....
an emotion space, that is, defined by valence and arousal!
And, they do it, dare I say, in a grid-like pattern?

You know what I'm going to say. The more we look at cognition, the more rhythmic it looks.

Dr. An Wu, a good friend and a brilliant neuroscientist from UCSD, is missing during the major fire in an @Airbnb at Montreal after attending the @CosyneMeeting. We have been desperately looking for her for >72 hours. My heart goes out to her family. @CBCNews @sarahleavittcbc

Feeling like GRR Martin here, but after 5-6 years it is finally out! Can't even explain why it took such time as we had a clear idea what we were looking for: spatial computing!

Several follow ups in progress. Hopefully will not take another 5 years...

I am happy to share our new paper now on @Science. We discovered that rapid eye movements (REM) during sleep provide a readout of the internal representation of head direction, suggesting they could reveal gaze shifts in dreams. Link:science.org/doi/epdf/10.1126… -Brief🧵follows⬇️ 1/7
