In our Trends in Cogn Sci paper we point to the connectivity crisis in task-based human EEG/MEG research: many connectivity metrics, too little replication. Time for community-wide benchmarking to build robust, generalisable measures across labs & tasks. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Online Now: The cognitive side of communication in social insects

The cognitive side of communication in social insects

Social insects rely on multiple communication channels. These channels have traditionally been considered innate, eliciting stereotyped responses. However, recent research has shown that cognitive modulation occurs in communication contexts long assumed to be entirely genetically encoded, thus revealing a previously unrecognized cognitive plasticity in social insect communication.

Table 1 Typology of traps, how they can be avoided, and what goes wrong if not avoided. Note that all traps in a sense constitute category errors (Ryle & Tanney, 2009) and the success-to-truth inference (Guest & Martin, 2023) is an important driver in most, if not all, of the traps.

Sharing our new paper published today in Nature Communications. In my view, this is our clearest demonstration to date that something profoundly changes in how infants encode the world around them before and after the emergence of self-representation. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A classic feature of human memory is that we remember information better when it refers to ourselves. Here, the authors show that before the emergence of self-concept, infants instead remember informa...

🚨🚨🚨PREPRINT ALERT🚨🚨🚨 Neural dynamics across cortical layers are key to brain computations - but non-invasively, we’ve been limited to rough "deep vs. superficial" distinctions. What if we told you that it is possible to achieve full (TRUE!) laminar (I, II, III, IV, V, VI) precision with MEG!

Overview of the simulation strategy and analysis. a) Pial and white matter boundaries surfaces are extracted from anatomical MRI volumes. b) Intermediate equidistant surfaces are generated between the pial and white matter surfaces (labeled as superficial (S) and deep (D) respectively). c) Surfaces are downsampled together, maintaining vertex correspondence across layers. Dipole orientations are constrained using vectors linking corresponding vertices (link vectors). d) The thickness of cortical laminae varies across the cortical depth (70–72), which is evenly sampled by the equidistant source surface layers. e) Each colored line represents the model evidence (relative to the worst model, ΔF) over source layer models, for a signal simulated at a particular layer (the simulated layer is indicated by the line color). The source layer model with the maximal ΔF is indicated by “˄”. f) Result matrix summarizing ΔF across simulated source locations, with peak relative model evidence marked with “˄”. g) Error is calculated from the result matrix as the absolute distance in mm or layers from the simulated source (*) to the peak ΔF (˄). h) Bias is calculated as the relative position of a peak ΔF(˄) to a simulated source (*) in layers or mm.

The craziest paper I have ever done is this thought experiment with Albert Gidon and Matt Larkum. In the first journal, reviewer 1 recommended that we should not try to publish this; reviewer 2 called it "wacky". Thanks for the motivation: A sequel is coming up! journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

Does brain activity cause consciousness? A thought experiment

The authors of this Essay examine whether action potentials cause consciousness in a three-step thought experiment that assumes technology is advanced enough to fully manipulate our brains.
