Excited to share our new findings: transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation leads to increases in locus coeruleus activity, which correlate with changes in salivary alpha amylase in older individuals. #locuscoeruleus www.brainstimjrnl.com/article/S193...

Thus pupil size self-regulation links to fundamental changes in brain function, which opens many questions of how pupil-based biofeedback could be applied in future clinical applications in psychiatric and neurological conditions.
Upregulation of pupil size was linked to increased cortical excitability and arousal, increased heart rate and reduced HRV compared to pupil size downregulation. P300 amplitudes were larger during down- than upregulation.
👀🧠🫀
In three experiments we show that volitional up- and downregulation of pupil size modulates
1) cortical excitability, as measured by TMS evoked motor evoked potentials ⚡
2) the 1/f spectral slope, a marker of cortical arousal 🧠
3) heart rate and HRV 🫀
4) the P300 in an oddball task 🔊

Excited to see this out in @natcomms.nature.com today!
This paper builds on the lab's work on self-regulation of arousal through pupil-based biofeedback. We assessed several markers of cortical and cardiac arousal in a pure self-regulation and dual task setting.
Really pleased that this paper from my PhD has been published in Nature Scientific Reports!

We used mixed reality to explore how manipulating multisensory integration leads to dis-ownership from the body and how those experiences relate to trait dissociation
A starter pack I found missing 👓🖥️🌍🧠🩺

Please let me know if you wanna be added - especially undergrad, grad, predoc researchers!
I thought it could be nice to connect the community of researchers exploring body-brain interactions on bsky, so here is the Body-Brain Interactions Starter Pack! 🫀🫁👀🧠 #neuroskyence #academicsky
Let me know if you would like to be added or know someone to add. Enjoy and share!

Talk by @the-ecg.bsky.social postdoc Leah Banellis on our recent work linking gastric-brain coupling to mental health. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCWu...
Thread for those new to BlueSky. First of all, welcome. It feels like a safer space, doesn’t it? But also perhaps a bit disorienting initially? Here’s some tips for getting your bearings.
Next up is a starter pack for neurobiology of stress researchers. Again I know I’m missing people so let me know if you want to be added to the list! #neuroscience #neuroskyence 🧪🧠

Some resources i've curated for the cognitive and computational neuroscience communities on bluesky! First, a twin set of starter packs. go.bsky.app/2n84SRM
First post here! 👀🧠🫀
With my wonderful colleagues we showed that self-regulation of pupil size through pupil-based biofeedback modulates various markers of cortical excitability and arousal.
