Excited to co-organize a #COSYNE2026 workshop with Marieke Scholvinck (@zeronoiselab.bsky.social) on March 17 in Cascais 🧠🌊 *Inferring neural latent states from behavior* Featuring fantastic speakers across experimental & computational #neuroscience (list below 👇) Hope to see many of you there! 👋

Awesome work by Tudor. This is a fun story that started with a fairly unsurprising observation - that motor cortical activity dissipates rapidly after a CPG-driven movement is initiated. The explanation for why is quite surprising though and begets a bunch of interesting new questions.

Really proud and excited to share the final version of our paper, co-led by the Bluesky-less Munib Hasnain!! We asked whether cognitive and motor neural dynamics can be isolated from one another, or whether they’re driven by common neural mechanisms 1/n www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Nature Neuroscience - Using a novel method for isolating cognitive and motor neural dynamics, the authors show that dynamics often attributed to cognitive processes were corrupted by movements and...
