Hey #neuroscience and #brainstimulation people. Are you planning to use TMS on the visual cortex? Beware, that one in four people fail to perceive phosphenes! Read more in our (@artemistraikapi, Nikos Konstantinou) article in Brain Stimulation: brainstimjrnl.com/article/S1935-…

As always after damaging earthquakes, social media are full with claims that X or Y had predicted it! At this stage, prediction does not exist. Do not listen to people claiming they are successful at it!

NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/redeem/75e5e3d… And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

Is the sensory visual cortex involved in visual short-term memory maintenance? In two TMS experiments published today in The Royal Society open science, we (Andria Shimi, Nikos Konstantinou) say yes, it is! royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Visual working memory for action-through action. An insightful talk by Freek van Ede today at Cyprus University of Technology, thanks to Nikos Konstantinou.

When awarded the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics, Pierre Curie rejected the prize unless he could share it with his wife Marie. In his response, Pierre was adamant that awarding their research on radioactivity without recognising Marie's essential contribution would be unjust.

Αύριο πάει στην Επιτροπή Υγείας τροποποίηση της νομοθεσίας από τον κ. Λεωνίδου (εκ μέρους του ΔΗΚΟ), για νομιμοποίηση στο "διπλοπορτι", οπως το ΔΗΚΟ αλλά και άλλοι φορείς το χαρακτηριζαν, πριν απο λίγους μήνες. Ελπίζω ότι οι πιέσεις δεν θα περάσουν. Efthimios Diplaros Annita Demetriou

Hey vision scientist. Help me out here. Look at the figure below. Accordingly, doesn’t this mean that some stimuli within the visual field will not cross the optic chiasm? Why are we ignoring ipsilateral/uncrossed representations? #neuroscience #perception #vision

BREAKING NEWS The 2023 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.

Deeply honoured that RESTORE got invited by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. Together with Nikos Konstantinou & edward ester we will combine TMS & EEG to study the neural underpinnings of visual working memory. Stay tuned. Exciting things to come!

I see some recent TMS studies relying on phosphenes and discussing that (as expected) not all participants report reliable phosphenes. Just wanted to remind you that we’ve estimated this to help you out. One in four folk will fail to perceive phosphenes. brainstimjrnl.com/article/S1935-…
