Finally a Dr.🎓(well, once my certificate is printed 😄) A few weeks ago, I defended my thesis, and shortly after, graduated from GSN @lmu.de! I learned so much on this journey, not only about how action structures episodic memory (preprint coming soon!) but that persistence is key😄 #PhD #Neuroscience

Thrilled to share our new #preprint, and super proud of @zednud.bsky.social and our work on eye–brain dynamics during eyes-closed rest and sleep! Also excited to share that Zach started his PhD with me recently! 🎉 Lots of ideas and cool work ahead. Follow him on Bluesky and check out his thread! 🧵

Excited to share my first #preprint with @matthiasnau.bsky.social on how gaze behavior shapes brain activity during eyes-closed rest and sleep! Gaze-dependent activity was widespread even during sleep, including in many visual cortices, and altered brain-wide functional connectivity! 🧵 1/8

Can we study MTL ripples non-invasively? New preprint! We show that source-resolved MEG tracks ripple-like activity during sleep that: • localizes to the MTL • follows the canonical SO–spindle hierarchy • matches an iEEG benchmark • indexes memory reactivation www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Non-invasive tracking of ripple-like activity during human sleep using MEG

Hippocampal ripples are considered a key mechanism of sleep-dependent memory consolidation. In humans, however, their direct investigation has relied on invasive recordings from patients with epilepsy...

Entorhinal grid-like codes for visual space during memory formation

Nature Communications - Eye movements during scene viewing are tied to grid-like codes in the entorhinal cortex. Grid signals are specific to later remembered scenes, covary with activity in...

Looking forward to some great discussions on action and episodic memory at todays morning poster session P3.18 #ICON2025 ☀️🧠

Also on the way to #ICON2025 in beautiful Porto? Check the lab’s latest work: @xiongbowu.bsky.social: Talk in SY16, Tuesday 9.00, room Boavista; Aditya Chowdhury: Poster P1.11, Tuesday 10.45 @julia-sc.bsky.social: Poster P3.18, Wednesday 10.45 @tafgmcb.bsky.social: Poster 4.32, Wednesday 15.30

🚨 New preprint alert! Excited to share our latest work on alpha/beta activity, eye movements, and memory. Across 4 experiments combining scalp EEG/iEEG with eye tracking, we show that alpha/beta activity directly reflects eye movements, and only indirectly relates to memory. 👇 Highlights (1/7):

📢 New preprint from the lab: We are very excited to report the discovery of an oscillation in the Central Thalamus using rare direct recordings of human thalamic electrophysiology. The novel oscillation is tightly coupled to specific, natural states of consciousness.🧵
