My experience at @KingsCollegeLon is coming to an end. Check out the report of my work here in the NENS alumni page! Thanks to @FENSorg and @SapienzaRoma for funding my stay and @drccatmur @marcodavare for having supervised me fens.org/careers/networks/ne…

Adding to the ā€˜grasping in the dark/visual guidance’ work. Confirming touch, but also pre-reach, as important sensorimotor events. Led by @m_marneweck
Very pleased to share the 1st paper of our lab! In collaboration with @marcodavare, we show visual info after object grasp supports digit position variability and swift anticipatory force control |Journal of Neurophysiology |@JNeurophysiol @uoregon @HphyUo journals.physiology.org/doi/…

Our department (@HphyUo) is hiring 3 tenure-track positions related to human performance and health promotion. Eugene, Oregon gets an A for living, and that doesn't even include the bonus points for working alongside some very excellent colleagues blogs.uoregon.edu/hphyjobs/

On theta-burst #TMS variability: hot off the press doi.org/10.7554/eLife.65536, cTBS produces a long-lasting reduction in neuronal activity, but its timing can vary across neurons and hyperexcitability periods are also found. On time for my talk @Brainbox_Init #BBIconf22
Brainbox Initiative 2022 speaker @marcodavare @KingsCollegeLon will be joining us this month with insight into recent advances in the neuronal effects of TMS in awake behaving non-human primates. #BBIconf22 Register here: ow.ly/ZLXU50JONsX

How does TMS excite the brain? In this consensus & critical position paper, we summarize what we know (and still do not know) about the neurophysiological underpinnings of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). A big "thank you" to all co-authors for their valuable input !

In our quest to disrupt the size-weight illusion with #TMS over AIP, we found a very transient role of AIP in the sensorimotor predictions related to object size. Interesting because it implies another area takes over once force-to-size rules are learned.

When research into #Avatars allows neuroscience, gaming, politics and philosophy to meet, @WWatkinBrunel @BallaGianluca @WhiteGreyMatter @mvdematos with Andra Ivanescu and Delia Faris @MeredithRJones
This week we had an incredible meeting of the AVATAR research initiative in @Bruneluni. Presentations and discussions were led by @WhiteGreyMatter and @marcodavare. Thanks to the Brunel Research Interdisciplinary Lab (BRIL) for funding this šŸ¤ #Avatar #research #AcademicTwitter

Prof. Roger Lemon elected as FRS. Pioneered research on the cortical control of skilled hand movements, and an inspiring mentor!
Delighted to see Roger Lemon elected as a Fellow of @royalsociety for pioneering neuroscience research. Congratulations Roger! You can read more about Roger’s research in our special 50 years’ collection of articles here: ow.ly/o1wd50EGYly

Wow, we received the @OHBM Merit Abstract Award! šŸ¾ We will present a fast and easy method to localize cortical representations with transcranial magnetic stimulation (#TMS). Spoiler: It works pretty well. See gif for a finger muscle (FDI) in PMd pp: doi.org/10.1101/2021.0
