1/3 Interested in brain rhythms and the orchestration of sensing & acting? Interested in neural mechanisms of natural exploration?
This postdoc opportunity might be just for you!
I am recruiting a post doc to work with me on an exciting project at UCL @uclpals.bsky.social

UCL – University College London

UCL is consistently ranked as one of the top ten universities in the world (QS World University Rankings 2010-2022) and is No.2 in the UK for research power (Research Excellence Framework 2021).

Brain waves. It sounds like sci fi but it's completely real. And we can measure them with EEG. This is the 1st of 2 videos about EEG. Here, learn from Emily Weichart about the basics of how EEG works and watch how it is used to study event related potentials. #neuroscience #EEG

It looks even better once it's typeset for Imaging #Neuroscience 😎

Come take your single trial #ERP : It only costs you an #EEG or #MEG dataset, a few assumptions and a reaction time per trial (and a bit of RAM to be honest)

Very happy of our preprint on single-trial detection of #cognitive events in #neural time-series
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

TLDR: with HMP, a few assumptions and the #EEG#MEG signal in the RT, HMP estimates:
- how many events account for the data
- their SINGLE-TRIAL time location 🤯

Trial-by-trial detection of cognitive events in neural time-series

This preprint has existed for awhile, but now it is published in Behavior Research Methods!

A tutorial on fitting models of M/EEG and behavior to understand cognition. We wrote this so that readers from different backgrounds, especially Masters & PhD students, would find it useful.

She didn't perceive the fourth dimension directly but had a profound spatial intuition that allowed her to understand complex multidimensional geometries through their lower-dimensional representations.
