@loopyluppi.bsky.social & @frosas.bsky.social have written a reply. I recommend reading this as it clarifies their stance and advances the discussion: www.nature.com/articles/s41... I think this was a fruitful exchange. It was also a great experience to write this up w/ David in Amsterdam @ CCN2025

Just out in Nature Reviews Neuroscience! We've been studying information synergy within the brain for a few years now: here we explore how we can take this approach to the level of synergy *between* brains! 🧠🔄🧠 Thanks to @edoardochidichimo.bsky.social for making this inter-brain synergy possible!

Andres Canales-Johnson@canalesjohnson.bsky.social · 9mo ago
