An entire symposium about sleep and the markers of its various phenomena, viewed through the lens of (M)EEG studies... how cool is that???
🚨 Meet our Local Speakers – Day 1 | Sleep 🌙 🤝 Join us in Brussels for a morning of sleep neuroscience with Peter Simor, Marine Thieux & Sophia Snipes. Their talks will explore REM sleep, memory consolidation, and novel sleep biomarkers. #Neuroscience #SleepResearch #BXLGarden #CuttingEEG #EEG #MEG

📢 Abstract Submission Alert! Only 2 weeks left! Join BXLGarden to grow your expertise alongside other (M)EEG specialists and present your work at our poster sessions, whatever stage your project is at. 📋 Guidelines: cuttingeeg2021.org/poster/ 📝 Submit: forms.gle/ThtyMVMzgi9X...
During BXLGarden, you can participate in the peer review of poster presentations. 🏆 As an author, indicate in your abstract submission that you would like to be considered for peer review. 🤝 As a peer reviewer, you can express your interest after registering (see the confirmation email).
🌱 BXLGarden's program is here! Join us on-site for 5 workshops, 5 global talks, 4 symposia, 2 poster sessions & 2 social events + a beginner-friendly satellite workshop. In the coming weeks, we'll be sharing more details of the program on our social media — follow us! Full program on our www.
💡 Worried that limited (M)EEG experience might keep you from joining BXLGarden? It won't! Join our workshop the week before, either online or in person. Included in your registration fee. Further details on date and how to prepare will be sent to registered participants closer to the event.
"Share knowledge globally, grow competence locally" is the essence behind it all! CuttingGardens is the distributed conference of @cuttingeeg.bsky.social + dozens of research groups worldwide a.k.a "Gardens" i.a. @crcnulb.bsky.social More in the comment! 👉 Follow us: program details TBA soon 🧠
CuttingEEG is doing great work encouraging researchers to present ongoing or even conceptualization-stage projects at their poster sessions. It creates a real opportunity for informal, but often most constructive, advice from experts in the field, at a stage when changes can still be applied 🧩
Share your work! No matter what stage you are at in your M/EEG research, we invite you to present your project at the poster session and receive helpful feedback. 🎨New: we are introducing an extra category, the Artistic Poster! You can find more information in the guidelines and submission form.

#Neuronus2026 — what a conference! Remarkable research and new perspectives for my PhD were brought in Krakow, ranging from hormonal balance to lucid dreaming during acoustic stimulation in sleep. Thank you, Organisers, for the travel grant support and for making our 'sleepy' symposium possible! 😄

Finally out! 🏃♀️ My first first-authored paper is published 🎉 We show that 40-Hz auditory steady-state response connectivity changes across sleep stages, with an interesting shift in feedforward vs feedback dynamics during sleep onset. Article below 👇 authors.elsevier.com/a/1mqys14Stj...

Our research has countered the paradigm of feedback connectivity in sensory information processing as being more susceptible to loss of consciousness 🧠💤🔔 Read the new preprint 📝

yesterday I saw Hamnet. outstanding. raw emotions simmering just beneath the skin throughout the entire film. without a doubt directed by a damn emotionally mature woman. and that scene where Shakespeare struggles to write the play... yeah, i felt seen, heh #hamnet #hamlet #chloezhao

I dream of actually diverse teams in academia. Not “diverse”, but diverse-diverse. I want a systemic reform where every PI is legally obligated to hire a full-time physiotherapist for their lab. Mandatory. Non-negotiable. Grant-funded.

First week as a legit, full-time PhD student. Most striking observation? Even with 8 hours of sleep and a morning cardio workout, I can’t stop yawning. The brain simply can’t keep up with the oxygen demand. New biohacking idea for researchers: write your next grant proposal on a respirator.
