At #SFN2025? Into sleep, brain rhythms, or single-unit–based memory reactivation? Then you absolutely should check out @fabian31415.bsky.social's poster. I might be biased, but this is some truly awesome work.

An abbreviation (ABB) in a journal article (JA) or Grant Application (GA) is rarely worth the words it saves. Every ABB requires cognitive resources (CR) and at my age by the time I'm halfway through a JA or GA I no longer have the CR to remember what your ABB stood for.

Hey #sleeppeeps

If anyone is looking to hire a new entry level RA, I have 2x excellent recent grads from my lab who would be super-keen to get a research assistant job in a sleep lab.

DM me if you want them to send CVs -- both personally trained by me, experience in sleep/memory/dreaming/EEG.

🧠💤 Memory consolidation during sleep is metabolically tuned? Short-term fasting enhances hippocampal ripples, cortical spindles, and slow oscillations, and shifts slow oscillation–spindle phase-amplitude coupling—all without altering overall sleep architecture.

How does the brain integrate prior expectation with sensory evidence? 👀🧠💭

We show that sensory and action neural tuning play distinct roles in guiding visual decisions. Dampening expected action information drives confirmation bias, while dynamic sensory tuning explains speed-accuracy trade-offs.
