100% agreed, so important to understand what e.g. slow breathing is actually doing before widely implementing these interventions. Currently a couple of projects in the pipeline looking into the mechanisms of SB beyond HRV and mindfulness, hopefully the funding comes through! 🤞

Together with Teresa Berther, @martinasaltafossi.bsky.social, @eliobalestrieri.bsky.social, and @ualsbombe.bsky.social, we have developed a pipeline which uses IAAFT-based respiration time series surrogates to then adapt gold-standard cluster permutation testing for circular (phase-binned) data.

So happy this paper is now out in @plosbiology.org! We investigated whether fluctuations in MEPs can be explained by phasic influences from internal bodily rhythms, and whether this might happen independently per organ system. #interoception #neuroskyence

Lower survival rate among trainees in labs with highly productive mentors raises important concerns about what we value in academia. Many interesting things to stew over with this paper! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Both tonic and phasic taVNS protocols induce rapid and transient pupil responses. Surprising how similar the responses actually are in light of previous studies. Great work by Skora, Marzecova, & Jocham (not on bsky yet). #neuroscience #psychology 🩺 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Similar changes in pupil dilation in the phasic and tonic
conditions, shown relative to a 10 s baseline before stimulation onset
