Two different kinds of C is a difference that makes no difference. But you don't have to take my word for it: 30+ years on and what do we have to show for it in terms of real empirical traction? Any results or discoveries that would not have been made (or made sense of) without the P/A distinction?

Are you sure there’s no mosquito in the room? With @matanmazor.bsky.social, Chichi Dézier, @nfaivre.bsky.social & Louise Goupil, we study how we combine multiple sensory sources to be confident in presence and absence: While detection rely on one modality, confidence requires both channels to align!

Neural correlates of perceptual consciousness from within: a narrative review of human intracranial research

Despite many years of research, the quest to identify neural correlates of perceptual consciousness (NCC) remains unresolved. One major obstacle lies in methodological limitations: most studies rely o...

Our spotlight article on Goueytes et al. (2025) study is now online at Trends in Neurosciences: "Pre- and post-decision signals of certainty in changing minds", by P. Barttfeld, @ncomay.bsky.social, I. Embon & @guillermosolovey.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/neuro...

Pre- and post-decision signals of certainty in changing minds

In a recent study, Goueytes and colleagues combined computational modeling with intracranial recordings to dissect the neural basis of confidence and changes of mind. They reveal a temporally organize...

The call for commentaries on our BBS paper is out now (deadline October 15): shorturl.at/Hu3Yu. In the paper (shorturl.at/4Rbk6), we provide recommendations and outstanding issues about designing experimental paradigms, analyzing data, and reporting the results of studies on unconscious processing 👇

📢Excited to share our paper, "Studying unconscious processing: Contention and consensus", published in BBS. The paper is the result of a collaborative effort of 32 leading researchers in the field, from 10 different countries🌏 Check out the full ms👇 www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Two recent #sEEG studies worth checking out if you're interested in evidence accumulation, #consciousness and #metacognition: www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.nature.com/articles/s41... With @francoisstock.bsky.social, Dorian Goueytes, @meaperei.bsky.social, and many others!

BBS just issued the call for commentaries, and we would LOVE to get yours!! The deadline is October 15th, and the reference number is BBS-D-24-00489R2. Looking forward to hearing what you think about our suggestions for how to study unconscious processes!

New “version of record” in @elife.bsky.social! ‬ We recorded neurons in the thalamus and subthalamic nucleus of humans and found both sensory- and perception-selective neurons with two distinct latencies! 7-year project with @nfaivre.bsky.social + @foscobernasconi.bsky.social. A short thread 👇

Subcortical correlates of consciousness with human single neuron recordings

Subcortical brain structures contain neurons encoding subjective reports of stimulus detection in human participants, suggesting a role for conscious perception.

Thanks for having me, Lucie and Keiji, it was great meeting you all and discussing consciousness at QM!

@luciecharlesneuro.bsky.social · last yr.

Happy to have @nfaivre.bsky.social give a talk at the Postdoc festival of the School of Biology and Behavioural Sciences at QM organised by my postdoc @keijiota.bsky.social !

Through thick and thin, the ultra-resilient Ramla Msheik completed the main study of her PhD, which supports leaky evidence accumulation as a computational mechanism underlying perceptual confidence and subjective duration. Check it out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Leaky evidence accumulation accounts for perceptual confidence and subjective duration

Perceptual consciousness is defined as the subjective experience associated with the processing of sensory cues from the environment. Subjective experience unfolds over time and is accompanied by a se...

Ever wondered how basketball players know when their throws are in/out? L. Brun & @perrineporte.bsky.social asked players to rate confidence in their throws under variable visual feedback. Turns out vision helps adjust confidence in successful, but not failed throws: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

François Stockart@francoisstock.bsky.social · 2y ago

Our new sEEG study is out on BioRxiv: tinyurl.com/4afh3b9n! Using 3 face detection experiments and recording from >3000 channels, we found a neural code that reflected evidence accumulation for conscious perception and perceptual confidence! 👇

Honoured to be awarded an #ERCCoG! And immensely grateful to all my collaborators 🙏 We will document how evidence accumulation determines the stream of consciousness using LFP, SUA, and voltammetry recordings. This, in awake, sleeping, and anaesthetized humans. Stay tuned :)

Is there domain generality in metacognition? We review the current evidence with @audreymazancieux.bsky.social, @meaperei.bsky.social, @nfaivre.bsky.social, Chris Moulin, and Céline Souchay. PDF free to read here: rdcu.be/drmJv
