New preprint out now. 🎭 What makes an acted emotion feel believable? We tested whether believability depends on what observers see from the outside, facial movement, and what happens inside the actor’s body, cardiac dynamics during performance. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Actors' Facial Movement Magnitude and Cardiac Dynamics Predict Observers' Emotion Believability Ratings

In non-verbal communication, observers infer emotions from visible facial movements, yet emotional experiences are described in internal bodily terms (e.g., "my heart skipped a beat"). This contrast h...

Here is a news story from York University about our new Nature paper www.yorku.ca/news/2025/10...

Study illuminates the brain’s predictive power in movement control - News@York

New findings reveal how sensory expectations help the brain prepare for disturbances, enabling seamless movement in complex environments.

Thrilled that our paper is out today in Nature! www.nature.com/articles/s4...

📣 This is a big one that we've been cooking for a while! We think it adds to the heart of motor control: 'how does motor cortex work'. Congratulations @mkashefi.bsky.social!

Excited to share my latest work with @jonathanamichaels.bsky.social @diedrichsenjorn.bsky.social & @andpru.bsky.social! We asked: How does the motor cortex account for arm posture when generating movement? Paper 👉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 1/10

🚨 I’m excited to say that my CIHR Project Grant was funded! My NHP lab is now full-speed-ahead, and I’m hiring experimentalists (postdoc, PhD student, and/or a tech/manager). We’ll do multi-region ephys during reaching/grasping in macaques, with behavioral and spinal perturbations.

For people interested in the spinal cord, there is now an open postdoc position at UCL working on OP-MEG of the spinal cord, with Prof. Sven Bestmann. Apply now! www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

UCL – University College London

UCL is consistently ranked as one of the top ten universities in the world (QS World University Rankings 2010-2022) and is No.2 in the UK for research power (Research Excellence Framework 2021).

Prior knowledge changes sensory processing in the spinal cord?! 🤯 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... #neuroskyence

Challenge: does FMRI have a future (apart from studies of development and ageing)? We want to know HOW the brain works and for that we need millisecond temporal resolution neuropixels, MEG, OPMs. After nearly 30 years of FMRI we know basically WHERE things happen.
