I’ve officially resigned as Associate Editor for Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience (part of @FrontNeurosci). It used to be a reputable journal, but became a case study in how forced automation destroys academic integrity. 👇

How can we acquire new knowledge and skills on a daily basis while remaining the same person? I'm excited to share our new preprint led by @hyejinjadelee and @allydworetsky tackling this question, just in time for #OHBM2026 doi.org/10.64898/2026.06.10.… 🧵👇

Functional brain organization is stable within individuals across years

Brain regions exhibit dynamic yet highly coordinated activity patterns that form large-scale functional networks measurable through resting-state correlations. While their association with fluctuat...

Multi-Neuromodulatory fingerprints of an adaptive cognitive state: Cognitive engagement was predicted by joint GABA & ACh/Choline in PFC; by Dopamine & Cholinergic changes in striatum. Glutamate & ACh correlated across states. Kudos to team Dr Pawliszyn biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Neural representation of action symbols in primate frontal cortex

Nature - A drawing-like task designed to study compositional generalization identifies a specific neural population in the ventral premotor cortex in primates that encodes action symbols.

1/ New preprint VSS poster! Attention has long been thought to enable efficient vision. But does it? First demonstration that attention—consuming just 4-5% of the energy budget—can cut the energetic costs of vision in half. #VSS2026

I'm proud we are releasing LAION-fMRI, a densely sampled 7T fMRI dataset of natural images, with very broad stimulus sampling for testing countless hypotheses & deeply exploring brain representations. It is now available at laion-fmri.hebartlab.com/ What does LAION-fMRI offer? 🧵

LAION-fMRI - a 7T fMRI dataset of human vision

LAION-fMRI (LfMRI / LAION MRI dataset): 5 subjects, 25,052 launch-release natural images, 165 acquired 7T fMRI sessions with single-trial GLMsingle betas, retinotopy, localizers, and diffusion.

The paper shows that high‑gamma field activity and local spiking are distinct. The “hashy” signal often treated as a proxy for spiking is partly generated by other biophysics like dendritic and network‑level currents, not just summed spikes. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… #neuroscience

Active dissociation of intracortical spiking and high gamma activity

Nature - A brain–machine interface is used in monkeys to investigate the biophysical underpinnings of cortical high gamma-band activity, a signal that is often studied in the context of many...

Wait this is the cover of NN??? What about this: biorxiv.org/content/10.64898… Soo revealing about the speed of publishing (not just NN) paper already debunked on biorxiv before it is the cover of NN.

Alpha-band phase modulates perceptual sensitivity by changing internal noise and sensory tuning

Alpha-band, 8–13 Hz, neural oscillations phasically modulate the sensitivity of visual detection by changing internal sensory noise.

What are the neural correlates of human behavior? Much research has approached versions of this question between individuals but not within individuals. Are results from these 2 approaches similar? No! In over 4000 individuals, the neural correlates of cognitive control diverged between vs. within individuals -- a case of non-ergodicity and Simpson’s paradox. We think that non-ergodicity may be an important principle in human neuroscience. [1/12]
