😴 How does the brain combine information from different senses as we drift off to sleep? We found that the behavioural benefits of multisensory stimulation are preserved during drowsiness, even as the neural dynamics change. A nice summary by @cimcyc.bsky.social 👇 cimcyc.ugr.es/en/informati...

Can We Perceive the World as We Fall Asleep?
A CIMCYC study shows that the brain retains its ability to combine information from different senses during the transition towards sleep, although the neural dynamics supporting this process are alter...

📰 In an article published by ZME Science, Delphine Oudiette presents findings from a study exploring the mental states that arise during sleep onset. 👉 www.zmescience.com/medicine/mind-an…

You Can Dream While You’re Still Awake and Scientists Finally Saw It Happen
The boundary between waking thought and dreaming may be far blurrier than we thought.

A little update to this thread: our preprint is now officially published in JNeuro! We show that behavioural benefits from multisensory stimulation persist during sleep onset, even as neural dynamics change. Huge thanks to the amazing team 🫶 www.jneurosci.org/content/earl...

Drowsiness alters the neural dynamics but not the core computations of multisensory integration
Fluctuations in alertness shape perception and behaviour, yet how they affect the brain’s ability to integrate information across senses remains poorly understood. Here we investigated whether multise...

🗣️PRIMERA SESIÓN DE PSYCHOBEERS DEL 2026✨ 📢 Carmen Callizo Romero nos contará cómo las personas son capaces de pensar sobre un concepto tan abstracto como el tiempo, y cómo la cultura y la religión hacen que personas de diferentes puntos del mundo piensen sobre él de forma diferente ⏳💯

🚨 New preprint 🚨 Multisensory integration is often described as basic, robust, even ✨“cognitively impenetrable” ✨ But does the brain still bind the senses when alertness drops? 😴🧠 🔗 We tested this during natural sleep onset: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Thread below 👇

🚵 How does arousal level affect cognition? we show that cognitive control is preserved during sleepiness and intense exercise, but decision-making slows down while sleeping, and attentional focus improves while cycling. cimcyc.ugr.es/en/informati... Data and paper open in the osf.io/uvq3m/

Do natural fluctuations in arousal modulate cognitive control and decision-making?
Throughout the day, people experience a series of natural fluctuations in our level of physical arousal. These changes in our physiological state, ranging from deep sleep to physical exhaustion, appea...
