PostDoc at BAND-lab (PI: Sonja Kotz), Maastricht, NL Rhythms in the body, brain and environment
Now the long-awaited „special talks“ at the #MindBrainBody Symposium! First, @antocris.bsky.social on body-brain-behavior rhythms, variability, and time (chronos != kairos). #MBBS2026
Me and Sonja are in Berlin for the Mind-Brain-Body Symposium and are presenting preliminary data from our #body - #brain - #behavioral study with #wearable techs Strongly recommend joining this fantastic community! And get in touch if you're interested in hearing more and/or collaborate :)
… including an outlook on ongoing work into body-brain-behaviour frequency architecture! More insights on this by @antocris.bsky.social, tomorrow (11.03.) at 13:00 🙃 www.cbs.mpg.de/en/mbb-sympo...
Presenting preliminary results on multimodal #body - #brain - #behavioral research at the #timing research forum conference, Tokyo #rhythm #neuroscience
Yesterday we offered a workshop at the @timingresforum.bsky.social conference in Tokyo: 'Quantitative measures of #rhythm across disciplines: An overview and hands-on methodological approaches' Thanks friends and colleagues: Marco Gamba, Yannick Jadoul, and Jelle van der Werff
Symposium on multimodal #body-#brain research in #auditory and #speech processing
Super happy to have had the chance of organizing this symposium for the 15th International Conference on Cognitive Neuroscience in Porto together with these amazing scientists but most importantly amazing people #ICON25
In this pre-print, we show that lesions in the #cerebellum (CE) impact motor-independent cross-modal #temporal #predictions Co-authors: Franziska Knolle, Erich Schröger, Michael Schwartze, Rich Ivry, Sonja Kotz www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Lesions in the cerebellum impact cross-modal temporal predictions
The cerebellum (CE) supports the encoding of the precise sensory event timing and the generation of temporal predictions. Here we investigated whether focal CE lesions impact temporal predictions in a...

New pre-print: we show that L-Dopa and #DBS targeting the subthalamic nucleus have different effects on E/I balance and on the #neural encoding of #rhythmic auditory stimulation in #Parkinson's disease doi.org/10.1101/2025...
L-Dopa and STN-DBS modulate E/I balance and the neural encoding of rhythmic auditory stimulation in Parkinson
Temporally regular auditory stimuli, such as metronome beats or music, are typically utilized in rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) to initiate and stabilize the precise temporal coordination of moto...

What happens when our stream of consciousness turns inward, towards the body? Our new fMRI study of 536 individuals finds that 'body-wandering' is associated with distinct patterns of brain connectivity, physiology, affect, and mental health: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

1/n #Speech production in individuals with #Parkinson’s disease (IwPD) is often marked by hypophonia and hypokinetic dysarthria, which affects #voice modulation and articulation, negatively impacting #communication and quality of life. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Heightened Sensitivity to Voice Loudness Changes in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) affects voice and speech production, often resulting in reduced vocal intensity and monotonous speech. Recent studies have suggested that these changes can be partially explai...

Join us for the 3rd edition of the ‘Body-Brain Waves’ conference This year, the focus is on the influence of the #gastrointestinal #system on #neurocognitive functions, #health and #wellbeing: research on the #gut #microbiome, #nutrition, and the #gut-brain axis #cognitiveneuroscience and beyond
We show that #aging impacts basic #auditory and #timing processing. Increased cortical #excitability (E/I balance), heightened sensory #sensitivity, but reduced phase-alignment of ongoing delta-band neural oscillatory activity in healthy aging as compared to young adults lnkd.in/dmdhWP3P
We show impaired neural tuning #dynamics to an isochronous #rhythm in #stroke patients: lesions in the #basalganglia and #cerebellum increase variability in event-related response, reduce delta-band phase coherence and stability while synchronizing to temporal regularities doi.org/10.1162/imag...
