We managed to integrate brain scans into LLMs for interactive brain reading and more.. check out Vicky's post below. Super excited about this one!
Introducing CorText: a framework that fuses brain data directly into a large language model, allowing for interactive neural readout using natural language.

tl;dr: you can now chat with a brain scan 🧠💬

Finally announcing Bonito.jl! 🎉 A Julia web framework that went from "neglected prototype" to something I'm genuinely proud of.

🫁❤️New preprint out: The social, decoupled self

We show effects of interpersonal synchronization of physiological rhythms on intrapersonal cardiorespiratory coupling: when we sync our breathing, our breathing–heart rhythms decouple, with a perturbed phase-relationship

I've been waiting some years to make this joke and now it’s real:

I conned somebody into giving me a faculty job!

I’m starting as a W1 Tenure-Track Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt in a week (lol), in the Faculty of CS and Math

and I'm recruiting PhD students 🤗

I love a good animal communication article.

New research by @kaylakolff.bsky.social & Simone Pika highlighted in @us.theconversation.com suggests turn-taking, a core feature of human language, also plays a role in how chimpanzees communicate.

TLDR 👇
Whose turn is it? The question is at the heart of language and chimpanzees ask it too
Chimpanzees’ turn-taking shows skills that may have supported the evolution of human conversation.

ECSU's @nicohinrichs.bsky.social just posted an update on his paper on 'Geometric Hyperscanning of Affect under Active Inference' on Arxiv!

Make sure to check out his collabo. with @mahault.bsky.social @dimitrisbolis.bsky.social Yuyue Jiang, Leonardo Christov-Moore, and @leoschilbach.bsky.social
If you fancy the idea that emotions are inferences we make together, have a read and fire back with critiques, questions, or priors of your own.

Although people sometimes talk over each other, we are capable of effective turn-taking in conversation. A unique human trait?

Not really, @kaylakolff.bsky.social & Simone Pika write—other animals do so, too, like chimpanzees while grooming:

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion.

Two decades on, it has generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more.

If you want to boost the economy, funding science is one of the best things you could do.
