I've been writing a textbook on computational cognitive neuroscience, which has prompted me to assess the evidence supporting various theoretical ideas. It's striking to me how some ideas have an extraordinary shelf life despite weak evidence.

Love this design 🧬🧬
I'm so happy people are so into these shirts!
Pre-orders will be open until the end of the month.
They were designed by @franzanth.bsky.social & will be printed here in Philly on 100% cotton Next Level Tees.
Pink is *only* available until 5/31

What is or isn't a "BCI"?
We argue in Nature BME today that if the tech stimulates or records brain activity AND does computation, it's a BCI.

But we still need a way to discuss different types of BCI separately... 🧵

This book explores the argument (through NDEs and OBEs) that the brain itself doesn’t produce consciousness.
Instead, the brain acts as a reducing valve to shift our nonphysical consciousness into a limited capacity that is useful to help the material human body survive

As of yet, there is no unified “theory of everything” that can combine the laws of quantum mechanics with those of relativity theory in a way that begins to incorporate consciousness.
