…and - of course - metabotropic cholinergic receptors on oblique dendrites and their role for subjective experience 😀

Wholehearted recommendation to listen to @jaanaru.bsky.social on @braininspired.bsky.social !

So much in there about neurobiological theories of consciousness but also about academic freedom and diversity!

Adriatica2026 Summer School on Brain-Body Interactions & Wellbeing is back.

Five days of cutting-edge research on the brain-body relationship, hosted in Pescara (Adriatic coast).
More details coming soon. 🧠🌊
📅 August 31 – September 4, 2026 📍 Pescara, Italy
#Adriatica2026 #Neuroscience #Wellbeing

New paper from our IGOR Sustainability project in Nature Human Behaviour: “Sustainable neuroscience through open science” ♻️🧠

As there is no research on a dead planet, neuroscience must weigh its environmental footprint alongside its societal impact.

Do You Get Lost When You're Stressed? Blame Cortisol People who are stressed out have a harder time orienting themselves. A new study used neuroimaging to reveal why this happens.

A new Department of Cognitive Science is being created at Bocconi University in Milan, Italy.

Here is the call for a cluster hire (for around 10 faculty) in all areas of cognitive science, at both junior and senior levels:

Deadline: May 4th, 2026

📣 New preprint out from the lab!

We introduce emotional bandwidth: how much of your emotional state space you move through daily. Wider negative emotional bandwidth predicted more depressive symptoms, even beyond standard affect metrics, and linked to loneliness via depression.

🚀 New preprint out! With @toninfrc.bsky.social, @michaelgaebler.com & Ł. Okruszek: "Lost in Emotional Space". We introduce emotional bandwidth, a new way to measure how people navigate their emotional landscape in daily life, and link it to depression and loneliness using experience sampling 🧵 1/5

@studenova.bsky.social surprised the audience of the #MindBrainBody Symposium with an “embodied presentation” in how absolute post-stimulus alpha amplitude better explains trial-by-trial perception across 5 datasets and 3 somatosensory tasks

Introductory slide “Jointly advancing the reproducibility of peripheral physiology analysis: the Brain-Body Analysis Special Interest Group (BBSIG)” presented at the 13th MindBrainBody Symposium

Final slide with team picture

Overwhelmed by the collegial support and positive feedback received for our Brain-Body Analysis Special Interest Group (BBSIG) 🥹 thanks to our amazing team making this possible!

Had a great time presenting at #MBBS2026 in Berlin - thank you so much to the organisers for a wonderful conference

Meanwhile in the #MBBS2026:

Victor presenting his poster in Cardiorespiratory coupling with eye movements

And Lucas with daily life experiences (as subjectively reported with text and classified by LLM)

We had a great time learning & catching up, such a fantastic meeting! 🤜🤛

Amazing talk by Ulrike Bingel
on expectations "Mind over matter: how expectations shape health and treatment outcomes" #MBB2026 Interestingly, nocebo effects are easier to induce than placebo effects🤔

Today I'm at MindBrainBody symposium #MBB2026 Keynote by Karl J. Friston "The physics of affordance"

🚨 If you are at Mind & Brain Symposium 2026 in Berlin, come check out our ongoing work on modeling structure learning under uncertainty using a combination of active inference and particle filtering! Done and presented by Julia Senfft.

📃 Poster C30!

Last day at #MBB2026
Keynote by Julian Thayer on "Breathing is Fundamental: A Mind/Brain/Body Perspective".

Eight common errors I see in PhD applications and interviews, and how to avoid them Convince a supervisor that you’re a great fit for their laboratory by preparing questions, honing your personal statement and showcasing strong team-player instincts.

In Max Planck School of Cognition, we have applicants support program. We advice very much the same as spelled out here. Is anything missing?
