NeuralArchCon

🥳 🎊 I am really excited to share this project started in 2019 (when I was still a PhD student) with Katarzyna Hat, @RenateRutiku, Michał Wierzchoń, and @KrSandberg on domain-general confidence! osf.io/preprints/osf/… 1/7

❓Can mindfulness prevent nightmares? If you had no chance to read a paper published @SciReports by Sofia Tzioridou et al., we talked to Sofia, the 1st author, and summed it up for you 😀 bit.ly/3WToVqf CC: @KrSandberg @Uni_MR

Happy to share one of our first (behavioural) papers using @con_arch/#skuldnet data: The role of mindful acceptance and lucid dreaming in nightmare frequency and distress. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Thanks a million to @C_LAB_UJ for organising our @con_arch/#skuldnet summer school! I'm still in awe over the amazing work of the trainers and the smart, eager participants. I had such a great time with you all. Thanks to @mari_ecpereira for the highlights :)

The #EEG team has completed collection of the data for the @con_arch @COSTprogramme! It was a collaborative effort between @psychologyUJ and @Lobi_Nencki enabled by the @NCN_PL funding awarded to @michalbola. Over 600 datasets collected from 300 participants. Tremendous effort!🏆

Last but not least, I leave you with a beautiful view of Krakow at dusk.

Finally, @AgostonMihalik closed off the week the best way possible with an intro and demo of his CCA/PLS toolbox. I'm sure that, like me, you wondered if there is anything out there linking brain-behavior, taking into account essential concepts from ML to improve such models.

If you think we talked "only" about MRI, you are wrong. @con_arch includes several bio-samples, and @PerLPQvist walked us through concepts such as epigenetics and how we can use neurogenetics with MRI to help us understand brain associations from a micro-macro perspective 🧬 🧠

Paola Galdi, Irene Mikkelsen, and @ClaudeBajada took over the practical in functional and diffusion MRI - they explained in such a didactic and straightforward way a concept as complex as MRI and many ways to pre-process and analyze it.

Chen Song left us speechless and curious about what constitutes an optimal brain 🧠 . Chen's work is massive and profound as she dives deep into complex concepts. Also, she beautifully uses different MRI modalities and sleep-deprivation strategies to address these questions.

@DanielMargulies talked about his *impressive* work on gradients and network organization. Daniel started his talk by showing us how concepts from other disciplines can be brilliantly applied to understanding the human brain & its functionalities. Interdisciplinarity is key! 🔑

All good things come to an end, so does the @con_arch Summer School 2022. Many thanks to the @COSTprogramme for the opportunity and @psychologyUJ for hosting us.

The @con_arch line-up at the #ASSC25 #theassc is continued by @HatKatarzyna 🦄🦄🦄 she dazzles us with one of the biggest efforts to explore metacognition across modalities.

The incomparable @mari_ecpereira presenting first results from the rich @con_arch dataset and bringing it home at the #ASSC25 #theassc

Our own @KrSandberg talk yesterday presenting the huge efforts of @con_arch on understanding the neural architecture of consciousness in a multidisciplinary and multimodal approach! @assc25 @theASSC

@KrSandberg presenting the objectives of the project, and the analysis that will be performed. @con_arch @COSTprogramme @UDivulga @uvic_ucc #consciousness #machinelearning

Ready for the start of the COST Action CA18106 WG2 meeting in Cambridge - stay tuned! neuralarchcon.org @con_arch @COSTprogramme @UDivulga @uvic_ucc

One of the clinical applications of consciousness research is to be used for locked-in patients who are not able to communicate directly with their careers. Check this out to understand other applications here: youtube.com/watch?v=8kBjEH…

The question of consciousness is deeply embedded in memory research. Understanding this incredible link will allow us to live happier and more productive lives. Find out more about this here: youtu.be/2dKCDgoNetM @COSTprogramme @KrSandberg @RenateRutiku Jovana Bjekic

Our research differs from 90% of other consciousness studies. Find out more here: youtu.be/watch?v=uqpr6T… @COSTprogramme @KrSandberg @RenateRutiku
