Hi #Neuroscience community! Please help. Does anyone know about Substantia Nigra (SN) hemispheral #lateralization effects of dopamine production or connectivity? If you don't know the answer please share on so someone who knows will see this!

How do we know when we're hot, cold, or in pain? The answer is a sixth sense you may not have known existed.

Thoughts on MNE vs EEGlab? Where should I invest my time in learning?

Context:
New to EEG stuff
I mainly code in Python
Interested in TMS-EEG stuff.

Interest in brain-body coupling is rising. Current methods typically focus on a single brain-body axis, like heart-brain, in isolation. @danlikesbrains.bsky.social, @jgross.bsky.social, and I argue that the brain and body exhibit complex, multi-scale dynamics. Read more: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Elon Musk says Neuralink will merge human brains with artificial intelligence. How realistic are these ideas?

Is this our future, or are Musk’s ideas just fantastical sci-fi imaginations?

Timing is important, but how do we get better at it? In the latest issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, we show how the Default Mode and Timing Networks interact to give rise to timing improvements. #neuroskyence

Another function of neural traveling waves is clearing metabolic waste. The waves are there for a reason. It turns out that there are many reasons.

Backlog in announcing preprints, but here's goes! Preprint #3 by Lijun An doi.org/10.1101/2024... proposes DeepResBat, a deep learning alternative to ComBat that harmonizes MRI while accounting for covariates. We show large improvements over classical & deep learning baselines
