1/ Very proud to announce my lab has published a new review in Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews! We argue the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is far more integrated than developmental scientists typically assume and that matters!

If brain-body interactions are even remotely your thing, consider applying. Gut-brain coupling at its best, cutting-edge methods, amazing PI - couldn't recommend this more strongly.

Finally, in the tradition of 'Ten simple rules ...' papers, we boil our tutorial down to the key aspects to look out for. From conceptual decisions to practical advice, we hope this helps you avoid some of the mistakes we have made. Learning from them is how this paper came to be.

Daniel S. Kluger @danlikesbrains.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
In addition to this benchmarking, we quantify the statistical power of circular cluster permutation testing as a function of the number of trials and participants, granularity of phase binning, and the width of the moving window used. This lets you assess what to expect given your own parameters.

Daniel S. Kluger @danlikesbrains.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
Our cluster permutation approach for circular data is not at all limited to respiratory time series and comes as an out-of-the-box usable tool for your own analyses. We provide detailed analyses of type I/II error control, plus example data and a full executable pipeline. Oh, the simulations...

Daniel S. Kluger @danlikesbrains.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
Struggles with phase-amplitude coupling analyses often come down to constructing an adequate null distribution to compare your empirical findings against. We show how strongly your inference will depend on your null, when and why shuffling is an option, and suggest IAAFT as a general approach.

Daniel S. Kluger @danlikesbrains.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
Based on years of head-scratching and running into ever-new issues with previous methods approaches, we systematically compare the most important analysis parameters and offer guidance on best-practices choices. Again, everything available in #python and #matlab code.

Daniel S. Kluger @danlikesbrains.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
In a step-by-step tutorial, we highlight critical choices and potential pitfalls as we go from collecting raw data all the way to the final analysis. With all code openly accessible, this may serve as a blueprint for your own studies on respiration-brain coupling. 📂 github.com/teresaberthe...
