What happens in the brain when we manipulate our thoughts? We asked 30 epilepsy patients to mentally invert short melodies. Intracerebral #iEEG recordings suggest brain synchrony and sensory inhibition are key for mental manipulation: doi.org/10.1101/2025... #neuroskyence #musicscience

What do individual human neurons do when a sound violates expectations? In our new EJN paper, we characterize single- and multi-unit responses to several auditory deviants using microwire recordings from 13 patients. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author... #MMN #iEEG #PredictiveProcessing

For all the newcomers, a list of #musicscience researchers bsky.app/profile/did:...

For all the newcomers, here is a starter pack of people to follow on #musicscience, music cognition and related topics. just comment below if you want to be added! go.bsky.app/4oZbDpj #musicskyence

Israel Agrees To Go Back To Killing Palestinians On Less Frequent Basis

Ever slam on the brakes after seeing a speed trap? Or better yet, slow down ahead in anticipation? In our new paper w/ @anask07.bsky.social in @cp-iscience.bsky.social, we use #iEEG to study the neural basis of reactive and proactive control in medial and lateral PFC. tinyurl.com/4bbwbffv

Randolph is fantastic, and this will be an incredible opportunity to work on cutting edge science! Definitely consider applying

New position, new social media account. After 5 fantastic years in Tuebingen, I moved to @yale.edu and the @wutsaiyale.bsky.social this summer - which means that I’ll be recruiting PhD students and postdocs. Please help me to spread the word and see current opportunities below 👇

An insightful & enjoyable conversation with computational cognitive scientists Dr @olivia.science & Prof @irisvanrooij.bsky.social about their paper 'Against the Uncritical Adoption of 'AI' Technologies in Academia' Give it a listen❗ Share this & the paper w university leadership & administrators❗

New paper! Excellent work by Rebecca Jane Scarratt on the neural responses to relaxation music published in the journal Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience. @musicinthebrain.bsky.social #Musicscience link.springer.com/article/10.3...

🤔How does the human brain predict unexpected sounds? Our new study shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t work as a single unit. Instead, the orbitofrontal and lateral prefrontal cortex make distinct, time-sensitive contributions. #iEEG #BrainLesion #OFC #LPFC doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Don't miss the chance to apply to work with Andres. He is a great researcher in the field of predictive processing, working with #iEEG across humans and non-human primates

Excited to announce a new study from my time at the Center for Music in the Brain, Aarhus University, now available on bioRxiv! Inharmonicity enhances brain signals of attentional capture and auditory stream segregation www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #EEG #neuroscience #neuroskyence

as an experiment in academic internet stuff I made a 'new-auditory' list for folks interested in audition, hearing, speech, music etc anybody can join at groups.google.com/g/new-audito... the 30-year-old AUDITORY list is v cool but has many drawbacks, not least that it runs on 30-yr-old tech

Dear #eeg #neuroskyence #neurosky people: we've just set up a feed that focuses on intracranial EEG research. Please check it out: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:j3iraqfrxtckpozvwlzbtihc/feed/aaabu2nq26lhy Use the tags #iEEG, #ECoG, #sEEG or #stereo-EEG to post. (this time with the correct link 😅)

Very excited to share with you our new paper on sleep strategies in the general population! #musicscience #sleepscience

Colombia President Claims Cocaine No Worse Than Whiskey theonion.com/colombi...

Hello! For my PhD at the @musicinthebrain.bsky.social we are conducting an online survey on music for sleep. 🎶💤 Click on the link if you’re more than 18 and listen to music for sleep! It takes around 15 minutes ☀️ survey.au.dk/LinkCollecto... Thank you! #musicscience @lullabyte.bsky.social

Powerful, provocative piece from @cbo.bsky.social this morning.

Best use of AI so far youtube.com/watch?v=bL9i... "AI granny speaks to scammer"

#musicscience folks: Unhappy with the long and secretive review process of traditional journals? Tired of paying nonsensical APCs for open access? I hear rumors of a diamond OA @peercommunityin.bsky.social in Systematic Musicology. Anyone interested? @js.bamford.id.au @stupacher.bsky.social

You can read our new paper on modelling multiple data streams with varying dimensionality (alternately titled "What am I going to do with all these dimensions?!") if you want to. It's not even a little bit illegal.

Check out @musicinthebrain.bsky.social new paper published in Physics of Life Reviews on the Major - Minor dichotomy in music perception. I share first authorship with Giulio Carraturo. Thanks to all co-authors and to @dg.dk #musicscience www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Lots of folks have joined since I first shared the #musicskyence starter pack below (up to 110 now). Worth checking out the new arrivals. To stay up to date you can also pin the #musicscience feed: bsky.app/profile/did:... and the #musicscience list: bsky.app/profile/did:...

It often makes me laugh that Fuck Around, Find Out is simply and quite literally how the scientific method actually works. #AcademicSky #Science

Some #musicscience humor to start the week

I’ve created a starter pack to collect the #musicscience and #musicpsychology related organizations and labs together in one place. Let me know if there is anyone to add! go.bsky.app/Eao5vcf

New preprint out with Rebecca Jane Scarratt 🥳🎉 Using a text mining approach to YouTube comments, we investigated how different motivations for using sleep music can influence the type of music used for sleep @musicinthebrain.bsky.social @lullabyte.bsky.social osf.io/preprints/ps...

I'm proud to announce a new textbook for #musicscience titled "Music and Science: A Guide to Empirical Research". It covers methods in music psychology, empirical research, #openresearch & music computation in 298 pages. For details, see doi.org/10.4324/9781.... Codes at tuomaseerola.github.io/emr/

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit. Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention. Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?"
