📈🧠 We're looking for brains! 🧠📈
Postdoc + PhD positions are available to help pioneer fetal MEG with optically pumped magnetometers, measuring prenatal responses to sound and light to understand how we start making sense of the world even before we're born. 🐣

Please get in touch to hear more!

Are you interested in what to do with all that movement data you often get in your neuroscience measures? Is it just noise, or how can we make use of it? This December, we are organizing a workshop in Lübeck to discuss precisely these questions. (1/2)

We’ll have talks by @freekvanede.bsky.social‬, Marlene Meyer, ‪@giacomonovembre.bsky.social‬, Julius Welzel, Martin Bleichner, and Melanie Klapprott, and lots of time for posters and discussions. More details, submission of abstract, and registration here: www.imove2025.org
Integrating movements in neuroscientific investigations
The human brain is part of a movable body. Moving the body and its sensory organs helps reduce uncertainty in a dynamic environment. Cognitive Neuroscience has traditionally considered bodily movement

Check out our new preprint on how infants respond to music over the first year of life! 👶🧠💃🎶
While neural responses are pretty much ready to go in the youngest, moving to music takes a bit longer, becoming more complex and potentially more dance-like by 12 months. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Development of Auditory and Spontaneous Movement Responses to Music over the First Year of Life
Humans across cultures not only share the ability to recognise music but also respond to it through movement. While the sensory encoding of music is well-studied, when and how infants naturally start ...

@sarahjessen.bsky.social of the Babylab @uniluebeck.bsky.social took Martin Orf and me from the @jonasobleser.bsky.social lab along an intriguing journey into the neural fate and consequences of a mother‘s voice in her infant’s brain. Under review now. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

First time holding my book ✨ I had so much fun writing about the absolute miracle that is the first years of human development. For parents, practitioners and anybody interested in the latest research on early social, cognitive and emotional development 👶 Babies are the best 🫶

The focus will be on postnatal environments, but there might be one or the other project also including prenatal aspects.

Thanks for all the sudden attention. Just a quick note that the deadline for these particular five grants has already passed, BUT there will be more coming up from the same COST action on a very similar topics next year! So keep your eyes open, we’ll definitively advertise here.

How do kids and adult figure out who is the boss? Looks like kids base their judgements on physical parameters, while adults rather consider behavior. For more details check out our new preprint with @sarahtune.bsky.social and our super talented students Sarah, Sara and Anna. osf.io/preprints/ps...
