Behaviour of human participants in a prey-pursuit task reflects dynamic blending of goal-specific control policies, with hippocampus estimating latent states, anterior cingulate cortex orchestrating policy switches and orbitofrontal cortex supplying value-based contextualization rather than driving continuous policy updating.

What do America’s earliest restaurant menus teach us about America?

Implements spatial null models and coordinate-space transformations for statistical comparison of brain maps, following the framework described in Markello et al. (2022)…

Philosophy and the Mind Sciences (PhiMiSci) focuses on the interface between philosophy of mind, psychology, and cognitive neuroscience. PhiMiSci is a peer-reviewed, not-for-profit open-access journal...

Using a network control theoretical framework, we found that the brain's rich club does not optimally control dynamics of the brain. Instead, size-matched sets of random peripheral regions had a sign...

We demonstrate that graph-based models are fully capable of representing higher-order interactions, and have a long history of being used for precisely this purpose. This stands in contrast to a commo...

Humans across multiple languages spontaneously associate the nonwords “kiki” and “bouba” with spiky and round shapes, respectively, a phenomenon named the bouba-kiki effect. To explore the origin of t...

I found a way to make AI tell you lies – and I'm not the only one.

The people who understand most clearly what is being lost at the NIH are also the people least able to say so.

The brain can flexibly perform multiple tasks by compositionally combining task-relevant neural representations.

Cruddas et al. reviewed how core concepts from wave physics relate to cortical wave physiology and psychology. They examined how cortical waves emerge, how they facilitate coordinated, hierarchical, and counterstream dynamics, and how they encode perceptual and behavioral signals.

Interactive map of 3.4 million Bluesky users, visualised by their follower pattern.

This Github project from Ankur Gupta allows you to “generate beautiful, minimalist map posters for any city in the world”. There are a variety of different themes you can choose from and the resulting images

Here, the authors develop novel dynamical methods to model brain regions’ intrinsic neural timescales (INTs) from data, and find that they couple whole-brain structural connectivity to dynamic switchi...

In the nucleus accumbens, acetylcholine boosts dopamine release to promote effortful behaviour.

This is a very short survey on how pipelines are chosen in neuroimaging
