The call for commentaries on our BBS paper is out now (deadline October 15): shorturl.at/Hu3Yu. In the paper (shorturl.at/4Rbk6), we provide recommendations and outstanding issues about designing experimental paradigms, analyzing data, and reporting the results of studies on unconscious processing 👇

Two recent #sEEG studies worth checking out if you're interested in evidence accumulation, #consciousness and #metacognition:

With @francoisstock.bsky.social, Dorian Goueytes, @meaperei.bsky.social, and many others!

BBS just issued the call for commentaries, and we would LOVE to get yours!! The deadline is October 15th, and the reference number is BBS-D-24-00489R2. Looking forward to hearing what you think about our suggestions for how to study unconscious processes!

New “version of record” in @elife.bsky.social! ‬

We recorded neurons in the thalamus and subthalamic nucleus of humans and found both sensory- and perception-selective neurons with two distinct latencies!

7-year project with @nfaivre.bsky.social + @foscobernasconi.bsky.social.

A short thread 👇

Thanks for having me, Lucie and Keiji, it was great meeting you all and discussing consciousness at QM!

Through thick and thin, the ultra-resilient Ramla Msheik completed the main study of her PhD, which supports leaky evidence accumulation as a computational mechanism underlying perceptual confidence and subjective duration. Check it out!

Thanks Matan! Credit goes to Pauline Thwaites for the figure :)

This project benefited from the tremendous support of Eric Guinet, our dear lab engineer, who passed away suddenly this month.

RIP, Eric.

Ever wondered how basketball players know when their throws are in/out?
L. Brun & @perrineporte.bsky.social asked players to rate confidence in their throws under variable visual feedback.
Turns out vision helps adjust confidence in successful, but not failed throws:

... and this is our new contribution to #metacognition research, this time showing a functional overlap between evidence accumulation, confidence, and changes of mind using sEEG:

Brilliantly led by Dorian Goueytes, + @meaperei.bsky.social and many others!

Our new contribution to #consciousness research, brilliantly led by @francoisstock.bsky.social, with sEEG teams in Grenoble and Brno. Check it out!

Honoured to be awarded an #ERCCoG!
And immensely grateful to all my collaborators 🙏

We will document how evidence accumulation determines the stream of consciousness using LFP, SUA, and voltammetry recordings. This, in awake, sleeping, and anaesthetized humans.

Stay tuned :)

Is there domain generality in metacognition? We review the current evidence with @audreymazancieux.bsky.social, @meaperei.bsky.social, @nfaivre.bsky.social, Chris Moulin, and Céline Souchay.

Hi blue sky!

Louise Goupil, @jjtokyo and I are seeking a postdoc to investigate the emergence of agency during infancy with EEG and audio recordings.
