For those of you attending Neuroscience 2023, our president, Tara Spires-Jones, will be available on 14th November between 3-4 pm (EST) at the FENS booth to meet you all! #Neuroscience2023 #FENS #NeuroscienceConference #NeuroscienceEvent #BNA

Time for a ☕️break? Read Camilla Iannone excellent thread below on the recent Wellcome report, co-authored by #BNA Preclinical Trustee Mark Walton and BNA member DEEPAK SRIVASTAVA, with Xiaosi Gu Rosalyn J Moran - showcasing the challenges and opportunities for models of mental health

In our latest BNAdv Journal Club article, Sung-Mu (Scott) Lee Petar Raykov & Andrea Greve discuss the findings of a recent study by Blank et al (2023) on how the brain expects, processes, and perceives images, and outline potential directions for future research. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

On Dec 1 British Neuroscience Association opens a new prize for entries on Green Neuroscience! Read the article that inspired this by Charlotte Rae Martin Farley K.Jeffery & Anne Urai - @neuromatch.social/@anneurai - on how climate change affects neuroscientists and how we can reduce our carbon footprint. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Credibility Prize nominations open Dec 1st! Let's revisit an article by British Neuroscience Association's 1st Credibility Prize winner in 2021, Marta Topor, with Bertram Opitz and Philip J. A. Dean - a practical evaluation of a water-based electrode EEG system. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Nominations for our Green Neuroscience and Credibility prizes are now open! If you want to make a nomination, visit bna.org.uk/about/our-priz… by 31 January 2024 #GreenNeuroscience #CredibilityInNeuroscience

With the BNA Festive Symposium next week at The Francis Crick Institute - Unwrapping the Neuroscience of Emotions - let's unwrap a related BNAdv piece. Emotion-driven problem behaviour: The predictive utility of positive and negative urgency by Christopher Willie et al. ow.ly/ANJE50QfAP1

We put the BNA's credibility principles into practice - supporting preregistration, Registered Reports, CRediT, Open Science Badges, null results and more. Winners of the BNA Credibility Prizes will have the chance to publish their work with us - nominations close on Jan 31

NEW: this short report by Liam Taylor Ralph Graham L. Collingridge et al examines whether there are any sex-dependent differences in a form of long-term depression of synaptic responses triggered by activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors in rat hippocampus. ow.ly/7xKW50QwepH

Brain and Neuroscience Advances publishes high quality, original research papers and reviews from all neuroscience disciplines; including molecular, cellular, systems, behavioural and cognitive investigations. To submit your manuscript visit bna.org.uk/publications/b…

For #RareDiseaseDay we're returning to a BNAdv article on information processing in a mouse model of Ehmt1 haploinsufficiency, which is associated with rare neurodevelopmental conditions such as Kleefstra syndrome. Authors Brittany Davis @ProfAntIsles et al journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Deadline extension! Due to popular demand, the deadline for submitting papers to the Brain and Neuroscience Advances 'Neuroscience of Emotions' special collection is now 30 April 2024. journals.sagepub.com/page/bna/colle…

This week is #MakeItPublicWeek, dedicated to research transparency in the UK. We're supporting the drive towards research transparency in BNAdv through implementing Transparency and Openness Promotion standards and by awarding open science badges bna.org.uk/publications/b…

Our President Prof Tara Spires-Jones was delighted to discuss the beneficial effects of cognitively stimulating activities like reading on the brain with attendees at the Queen’s Reading Room charity event at Clarence House hosted by Her Majesty The Queen. youtu.be/9KMrlGn6e4g

NEW: this short report, Aisling McFall Delyth Graham Stu Nicklin Lorraine Work present a post-hoc analysis of a preclinical stroke trial, showing how unscheduled changes in animal housing facilities can impact physiological and behavioural measurements. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Inspiring presentations from our three Credibility Prize winners at this morning's session at #bnamembersmeeting2024. Our speakers covered credible practices such as prereg posters & Registered reports, the need to extend open science to the Global South, to sharing code.

NEW: Journal Club. Matthew Bailey et al (Cam Neuroscience) review Rita Gill's (ChampalimaudF) research that used behaviour analysis, fMRI, EEG, and causal interventions to identify a brain region involved in rats' transition from static to dynamic visual states. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23…

NEW: In this Registered Report, fatih serin Danying Wang @DrMattDavis @rikhens (MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit) attempted to replicate past research on the theta-induced memory effect to find out whether theta synchronicity of sensory information enhances associative memory journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Some tips in the new BNA toolkit on boosting credibility in research involving neuroimaging - the BNAdv journal can help facilitate Registered Reports and sharing of data & code through the published article as part of transparent reporting.
