We’ve identified the somato-cognitive action network (SCAN), a newly recognized network within human primary motor cortex that disrupts the famous—but incorrect—motor homunculus, and has strong connections to high-level control networks. Now out in @Nature https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-05964-2
What an exciting and stimulating #CNS2023!
It was an honor to present alongside @AnnaLeshinskaya @morganbarense @YanchaoBi about concept formation and abstractness.

can vouch that this is an incredible post-bacc opportunity for anyone interested in language and the brain (specifically post-stroke aphasia or alexia)!!! amazing community & perfect for people interested in pursuing neuropsychology, speech, or neurology! https://www.cognitiverecoverylab.com/join-our-team

Out now in Current Biology: @jdyeatman, @cvnlab and I found huge task effects on activity in the “visual word form area." The patterns of response modulation and functional connectivity seem to be uniquely related to engagement in a linguistic task.

I'm thrilled that THINGS-data is now online! We provide 3 massive datasets of fMRI, MEG, & behavior in response to up to 1854 objects and >22k images. We hope this will allow studying objects in vision, memory & language with unique semantic breadth! Link: https://doi.org/10.25452/figshare.plus.c.6161151

This year, I’ve been putting together reference letters for students. After years involved in residency and medical school selection, I’ve noticed biases in how women are talked about. Since none of us (including myself) are immune, this guide is helpful:
