Excited to share our work making an "allostasis-first" case that brain function is most productively framed in terms of its core regulatory function. We also introduce some new ideas in the context of metabolism and cognitive function in Alzheimer's.

What shifts in our brain when our consciousness shifts? On Sept 8-9, we will explore this question at ESI-SyNC 2025 - with exciting talks, posters and discussions on the neural dynamics of altered consciousness, from psychedelics to breathwork, near-death experiences and meditation.

To predict the behaviour of a primate, would you rather base your guess on a closely related species or one with a similar brain shape? We looked at brains & behaviours of 70 species, you’ll be surprised!

1) Trump does not want to get involved
2) he is told that Israel is having lots of success
3) he becomes desperate to join to he can be seen to “kick ass”
4) He bombs Iran one night

I mean, technically all of the brain is "higher visual areas" 😂
I asked gpt 4o to visualise the brain areas involved in consciousness according to IIT and GNWT. turns out it knows as much about neuroscience as the average AI researcher...
