1/7: We are excited that our paper "Single-neuron representations of odours in the human brain" was published today in nature. @humansingleunit,RWTH Aachen Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn, @MarcSpehr, Kat, University of Oxford, Oxford Neuroscience, #Olfaction Link: t.ly/7kioB

Does sleep free cognitive resources for efficient next-day processing? Are processing capacities similar in human and rodent sleep? How does the sleeping brain balance efficiency and robustness? New paper led by Michael Hahn to answer these questions. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… (1/6)

Two new postdoc positions available at UCL's Institute of Behavioural Neuroscience, with job adverts to be posted shortly. Feel free to DM if interested...

Finally an answer to some of your burning aperiodic questions: Why do some papers show opposing results when fitting the spectral slope? What is the best frequency range to fit in sleep? Is aperiodic brain activity characterized by more than one knee and slope?This and more here:

From learning to memory-guided action - new work led by the truly outstanding Philipp Büchel authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09…

Pleased to share our paper "Category boundaries modulate memory in a place-cell-like manner" out in Current Biology! We find that category boundaries affect memory like spatial boundaries & explain this by a BVC model: doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.…

Let’s share some data! Yuval Nir 💔 🧵 We’re thrilled to announce our new paper in Scientific Data featuring an open iEEG dataset from two medical centers and an ML model for detecting interictal epileptiform discharges during sleep 🧠⚡ 👉 nature.com/articles/s4159…

Our new paper led by amazing Rotem Falach @falach.bsky.social focusing on interictal spikes during sleep, sharing iEEG data along with expert neurologists' annotation at UCLA Health Neurosurgery 🧠 המרכז הרפואי ת״א - איכילוב and machine learning-based detection. Stay tuned for more soon, as we expand our work on interictal activities

🚨After five years, one pandemic, and hundreds of hours of lost sleep, our study on how sleep deprivation affects the neural correlates of memory suppression is finally published! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Here's what we found 👇 (1/7)

We have an open post-doc position in the Genzel lab funded by an ERC Consolidator grant. It is 3 years full-time (adaptable if necessary) and we are looking for someone with expertise in molecular methods. genzellab.com/we-are-hiring

Our new research in PNAS shows that #sleep spindle generation is driven by individualized timing patterns Sleep Research Society American Academy of Sleep Medicine National Sleep Research Resource (SleepData.org) pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Sleep spindles can be experimentally moved across the brain! In our new study, Jude Thom shows how spindles during sleep track cortical hot spots created during wake with transcranial electrical stimulation. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our lab is hiring a post doc! We are looking specifically for someone with machine learning research experience to contribute to funded simulation projects on learning and/or replay. Please share, and email me if you are interested!!

We are hiring!! 🤩 If you are a (soon-to-be) postdoc with expertise in human 😴 research, you are exactly what we are looking for. Come join my team at plasticbrain.org and investigate how different sleep stages affect memory and 🧠 microstructure!
