Launched in 2023, Imaging Neuroscience is now firmly established, with full indexing (PubMed, etc.) and 700 papers to date.

We're very happy to announce that we are able to reduce the APC to $1400.

Huge thanks to all authors, reviewers, editorial team+board, and MIT Press.

Academic authors, here's a peek into the black box of journal publishing from an journal editor if you can bear it:

🚨WHOHOO!! I am happy to share that I received the #ERCStG for my project PRECHRON: The Prefrontal Chronometer for Organizing Working Memory.

I am going to study #neuraloscillations during #workingmemory at the @rug.nl @rug-gmw.bsky.social

#brainstimulation #TMS #EEG

Yes, sure, also significant, but wouldn't you agree that lateralization still looks pretty weak (cf. Fig. 8)? But midline periphery (similar to our -12°) is also among weakest signal locations (at least if stimuli not scaled w/ cortical magnif.), so it's probably also a SNR issue in our data.

1) May seem surprising, but very much in line with MEG. See Figs 6 & 8 in Minarik et al., 2023, NeuroImage who mapped 15 VF locations.
2) The pilot described here was run with DC-EOG, but without ET; that's part of an ongoing follow-up

Our small pilot study shows RIFT works with an affordable 480 Hz OLED monitor & EEG:
✅ Reliable timing
✅ Robust tagging at 60 & 64 Hz to barely visible flicker
✅ Even weak peripheral responses

We hope this opens the door to RIFT studies by more labs.

🚨 New preprint: Invisible neural frequency tagging (RIFT) for the underfunded researcher:
👉 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

RIFT uses high-frequency flicker to probe attention in M/EEG with minimal stimulus visibility and little distraction. Until now, it required a costly high-speed projector.
Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) with a consumer monitor: A proof-of-concept
Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) enables neural frequency tagging at rates above the flicker fusion threshold, eliciting steady-state responses to flicker that is almost imperceptible. While R...

Choose Science. Choose Europe.

A new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowships 2025 call is now open.

With a budget of €404.3 million, it will support around 1,650 researchers from Europe and beyond.

Apply by 10 September → europa.eu/!fBTMgF

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

I am a bit afraid the whole Starter Pack business leaves behind trainees — make sure to follow / repost them if their work interests you so their voices are heard #PsychSciSky #neuroskyence #compneurosky

Thanks, will do!

Hi Martin, the preprint refers to "Supporting Information" that seems to be not in the document. Is the full version available somewhere?

Are you looking for a precise monitor for vision science, eye-tracking, or EEG? In a new preprint (w/ Arne Stein), we tested a new type of display with excellent performance in time-critical experiments: "High-speed" (240 Hz) OLED monitors. All details here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
A high-speed OLED monitor for precise stimulation in vision, eye-tracking, and EEG research
The recent introduction of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) monitors with refresh rates of 240 Hz or more opens new possibilities for their use as precise stimulation devices in vision research, ex...
