Hemispherotomy leads to persistent sleep-like slow waves in the isolated cortex of awake humans
Hemispherotomy is a neurosurgical procedure for treating refractory epilepsy by disconnecting a significant portion of the cortex. This study shows that the isolated cortex exhibits EEG patterns resem...

🚨 New preprint alert!

Excited to share our latest work on alpha/beta activity, eye movements, and memory.

Across 4 experiments combining scalp EEG/iEEG with eye tracking, we show that alpha/beta activity directly reflects eye movements, and only indirectly relates to memory.

Low-frequency brain oscillations reflect the dynamics of the oculomotor system: a new perspective on subsequent memory effects https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.07.29.667451v1

Thrilled to announce I'll be starting my own neuro-theory lab, as an Assistant Professor at @yaleneuro.bsky.social @wutsaiyale.bsky.social this Fall!

My group will study offline learning in the sleeping brain: how neural activity self-organizes during sleep and the computations it performs. 🧵

DREDge is a software tool for motion correction of high-density electrophysiology recordings. It can handle action potential or local field potential data and is demonstrated on a variety of acute or chronic recordings from humans, nonhuman primates and mice.

Nice change of pace putting the multi-channel #MEG #EEG data aside for a moment and looking at two inconspicuous 1-D signals that share more dynamics than we thought. Learned some things about respiration from @danlikesbrains.bsky.social along the way! wdyt? #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky
The link between respiration and arousal is a bit more puzzling than widely assumed, as pointed out in the great review by non-blue Martin Schaefer and others from @odorjohan.bsky.social 's lab. Led by @ckeitelsci.bsky.social, we try to advance things a little with pupillometry.
