Excited to announce a new study from my time at the Center for Music in the Brain, Aarhus University, now available on bioRxiv! Inharmonicity enhances brain signals of attentional capture and auditory stream segregation www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #EEG #neuroscience #neuroskyence

I support Wikipedia, where information is still human-created, fact-checked, and 100% free. I think this is the single most important resource humanity has to defend against populism, fascism, authoritarianism and general idiocy. donate.wikimedia.org

Oooops again…

This and people pretending to be cats.

What happens in the brain when we manipulate our thoughts? We asked 30 epilepsy patients to mentally invert short melodies. Intracerebral #iEEG recordings suggest brain synchrony and sensory inhibition are key for mental manipulation: doi.org/10.1101/2025... #neuroskyence #musicscience

No I don't! I actually want to save time from doing useless admin stuff, so I can spend MORE time reading, understanding and writing research papers!

I’m driven nuts by the fact that what was once a user manual is now a series of YouTube shorts.

Excited to be here in beautiful Maastricht for ICAC 2025! Come see Tomek Domżalski presenting preliminary results from his PhD tomorrow, poster #237. On Thursday, I’ll show fresh results from our study on inharmonicity effects on different auditory features, poster #333. @icac2025.bsky.social

Ai-assisted devaluation of written communication.

After reading this, how can people even consider using ChatGPT for anything remotely important?

New Research Published! I'm excited to share our latest study, led by Sabine Leske, investigating how the brain predicts the sharpness of sounds in rhythmic sequences. 🧠🔊 doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Job alert 🚨 another fully PhD position in Maastricht, this time with a more computational neuro focus, in the lab of Michelle Moerel @mmoerel.bsky.social and under my co-supervision. vacancies.maastrichtuniversity.nl/job/Maastric...

Check out the preprint of our review of neural mechanisms of predictive processing, now on arXiv arxiv.org/abs/2504.09614 It’s been a wonderful experience to be a part of this project, all made possible by the incredible work of @jeromelecoq.bsky.social who coordinated the effort. #neuroskyence

Anybody had any experiences reviewing/publishing with Qeios? Looks like a cool initiative but I’m not sure about their business model and ethics. www.qeios.com

I’m amazed at the sheer number of people who genuinely believe bullshit such as this. Curiously, it often comes from people heavily invested in the whole AI revolution nonsense.

Because, once again, variation is the norm.

See? They’re shitting the bed because suddenly products don’t sell. It’s always about $$$ in the end. Same with Twitter. Angry at Elon? Then stop using Twitter! It’s as simple as that. It’s not like it tells you something important…

Always remember: reducing your personal carbon footprint is the morally correct thing to do, but it is also irrelevant compared to all the environmental damage done by big corporations (who highly prefer you to feel guilty about your actions than to be held accountable for theirs).

This is wisdom.

That’s why the only thing that can hurt him is coordinated action. Stop using Twitter. Don’t buy Teslas. Support alternatives. Convince your friends to do the same.

The frustrating thing about any legal action against Musk is that he's got something like $425 billion. He could lose a court case for billions of dollars and it would still be nothing to him. The dude loves lawsuits because they're nothing to him.

I’ve never donated to Wikipedia before but I set up a small monthly donation as a fuck you to the world’s richest psychopath.

No

That’s pure scientific skepticism right there.

On the left, my image. On the right, the Al image that was clearly trained on, and designed to plagiarize, my image. All Al generated imagery is inherently theft. It's unethical, environmentally disastrous, and does irreparable harm to both artists and society.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗲𝘂𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 If you are a statistician, teach statistics, or even just use statistics, this is a highly recommended read. What a horror story which probably most of us know little about. nautil.us/how-eugenics...

This is wonderful, would love to see more human multimodal perception studies.

We experience the world through a multitude of senses, and yet most studies of sensory perception focus on one sensory modality at a time. Our paper on how odors affect sound processing in now published in Journal of Neuroscience (1/5). www.jneurosci.org/content/44/4...

A wonderful idea. Not sure if Altman and the Bros would approve.

This.

So is it okay to call Twitter “X” now since we’ve all moved here?

Neuroscientists are flocking to Bluesky, but X still has ten times more users. My story on the migration, featuring @nicolecrust.bsky.social @russpoldrack.bsky.social @charan-neuro.bsky.social @therealdrdukes.bsky.social @wiringthebrain.bsky.social + more! www.thetransmitter.org/community/hu...

From not being able to find people within auditory research to not being able to follow up on notifications. This is fantastic! So nice to see this community growing! Do not hesitate to contact me if you want want to be added to this list, particularly young/early career peeps. go.bsky.app/2V3D2mu

This is a really cool paper showing that “variation is the norm”.

oh sick they found it

BlueSky is so much better with starter packs. I love it.

I feel that the auditory research community has either not arrived here yet or is not very well connected. Please let me know who to add to this starter pack and self-nominate. 🧪 go.bsky.app/2V3D2mu

Announcing: BIDS Validator 2.0 This is a complete rewrite to base the validator on the declarative BIDS schema. Most importantly, this validator boasts long-awaited support for BIDS Derivative datasets. bids-standard.github.io/bids-validat... #BIDS #BrainImagingDataStructure

Following the trend, here's a starter pack of EEG researchers: go.bsky.app/H2URVjv. Let me know if you'd like to be added or removed. The list is very partial and still needs to be expanded, but I hope you find it helpful! 🧠 #EEG #neuroscience #neuroskyence
