Our new preprint is up now, wherein we directly record from a relatively large population of single neurons in human insula, as well as primary auditory cortex, while intracranial participants passively listen to simple sounds (tones/clicks). doi.org/10.1101/2025... (1/5) 🧠📈🧵👇
Human insula neurons respond to simple sounds during passive listening
The insula is critical for integrating sensory information from the body with that arising from the environment. Although previous studies suggest that posterior insula is sensitive to sounds, auditor...

Hi #neuroskyence #psychscisky,
I’m a postdoc at Brown w/ Steph Jones. I study human inhibitory control. Currently I’m using biophysical cortical models to understand the basis of macroscale EEG/LFP signatures of stopping.
I also like running, travel, food, et al.
Look forward to connecting here!
