🚨 New preprint from our lab 🚨 We show that portable, contact-free MMG with OPMs can decode fine finger movements and recover EMG-like muscle activation patterns 🧲🖐️ Huge credit to the team for pushing MMG closer to real-world applications Link and 🧵👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Portable quantum-sensor magnetomyography decodes fine hand movements

Optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) are compact quantum sensors that can measure the magnetic fields generated by muscle activity (magnetomyography, MMG) without skin contact. This contact-free alte...

🎄 New Xmas preprint 🎄 Portable, contact-free magnetomyography (MMG) can decode fine finger movements 🖐️ and recover EMG-like muscle 💪activations patterns, without electrodes or a shielded room! A step towards MMG 🧲 as a practical tool for neuromuscular assessment and human-machine interface 🧵👇

🚨 🆕 Preprint 🚨 How does the brain represent natural images? Using MEG + multivariate analysis, we disentangle contributions of retinotopy, spatial frequency, shape, and texture Together, our results reveal how visual features jointly and dynamically support human object recognition. link 👇

🚨 Check out our new preprint 🚨 A novel artifact-robust framework to investigate online effects of transcranial current stimulation (tCS). Further, we test this approach in an MEG study 🧲🧠 and find neural interaction between tCS and flickering visual stimulation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

An artifact-robust framework for measuring tCS effects during stimulation

Objective: Transcranial current stimulation (tCS) is a promising technique to non-invasively modulate human brain activity. However, stimulation artifacts in EEG and MEG recordings severely hinder the...

Check out our new preprint on convolutional recurrent neural networks trained for image classification and evaluated on out-of-distribution robustness Spoiler alert: simply adding top-down feedback connections was not enough to achieve robust vision! Link 👉 arxiv.org/abs/2508.07115 🧵👇

Sensory robustness through top-down feedback and neural stochasticity in recurrent vision models

Biological systems leverage top-down feedback for visual processing, yet most artificial vision models succeed in image classification using purely feedforward or recurrent architectures, calling into...

Are top-down feedback connections enough for robust vision? We found ConvRNN with top-down feedback exhibiting OOD robustness only when trained with dropout, revealing a dual mechanism for robust sensory coding with @marco-d.bsky.social, Karl Friston, Giovanni Pezzulo & @siegellab.bsky.social 🧵👇

Check out our new preprint on spatial hearing👂 in humans and deep neural networks We found that humans exhibit more robust sound localization than models when probed with out-of-distribution sounds, like those lacking primary interaural cues! Link 👉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Full thread 🧵👇

Robust spatial hearing beyond primary interaural cues in humans over deep neural networks

Spatial hearing allows humans to localize sound sources in the azimuth plane using interaural time (ITD) and level (ILD) differences, but the contribution of additional auditory features remains uncle...

🔵 Proud to share our new preprint 🔵 We compared humans and deep neural networks on sound localization 👂📍 Humans robustly localized OOD sounds even without primary interaural cues (ITD & ILD) Models localized well only in-training distribution sounds, failing on OOD regime Link & full story 🧵👇

Check out our new preprint on the encoding mechanisms of temporal prediction errors during tactile-motor associations in the human 🧠 We found preferential encoding for action-oriented errors, encoded in motor space! Link: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Thread here 👇

Frontocentral brain networks amplify action-oriented temporal prediction errors

Successful sensorimotor behavior depends on anticipating when a tactile event will occur and translating it into rapid action, yet it remains unclear how action requirements shape temporal prediction ...

🧠⏱️ New preprint! We found that temporal prediction errors are more strongly encoded when an overt response is required, and this encoding occurs in motor rather than sensory space. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵👇
