Clayspace lab goes live today! Come stop by poster boards MM1-4 today from 8am to 12pm to discuss some cool brain science! 🧠
It was great to present the poster today as part of the TPDA Early Career Poster session.
If you missed it and are curious, shoot up a message or stop by Wednesday morning. 🧠
#SfN2025
A great talk by @earlkmiller.bsky.social on the potential role of oscillations in analog computation 🌊
I’m off to #SfN2025! Grateful for the TPDA sponsor from @sfn.org. I will present in two sessions, details below.
I’m seeking 2026 postdoc positions to continue research in animal cognition/naturalistic behaviors—if you’re looking for a neuroethologist and a mouse whisperer, come to see me!
Building a strong neuroscience community means actively supporting emerging researchers.
Tonight’s Early Career Poster Session offers the perfect opportunity to connect, encourage, & invest in the scientists who will carry the field forward.
Drop by! 🔗 sfn.org/ecps

Hola #SfN2025,
Clayspace Lab is excited to share 4 new posters from our lab on Working memory and neural dynamics! 🧠
Come stop by at our poster boards or find us around to discuss cool science. Details in the ad below 👇!

#Neuroscience #SfN25
Excited to be at @cogcompneuro.bsky.social in Amsterdam today for Day 1! Visit Clayspace Lab's posters on working memory at Poster Session A, E-hall, 1:30-4:30 PM CEST. Find us at A116 (Ziyi Duan) and A170 (Mrugank Dake). See you there! #ccn2025
How reliable is OPM-MEG, and how does it compare to other neuroimaging modalities? 🤔
In a new preprint with @s-michelmann.bsky.social, we evaluate the reliability of OPM-MEG within & between individuals, and compare it to fMRI & iEEG during repeated movie viewing. 🧠

If dude was born in 1850s, he would have roasted Natural Selection!
Fantastic textbook of theoretical and computational neuroscience by @xjwanglab, covering everything from biophysical circuits to cognition, full-brain models, neuro-AI and computational psychiatry. I can't recommend it enough for anyone in the field www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/1...
Need more studies like these that combine decoding with perturbation to investigate the necessity of the "signature" for task performance.

Our new preprint ‘Preferred spatial frequency covaries with cortical magnification in human primary visual cortex' is now online. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
This changes the question of whether V1 is "necessary" for WM to how does V1 retain information during WM
without getting disrupted by a continuous barrage of visual inputs and maintain it within network of neurons having short time-constants?
Additionally, TMS to V1 also impacted alpha-lateralization for about 100ms after TMS pulse, thereby disrupting a well-established signature of WM.
We found that TMS to V1 impacted WM performance not just during encoding as has been shown earlier in many studies, but also during maintenance. We also replicated the results in a followup-study.
Here, using fMRI-guided TMS coupled with a unique design using subjective reports of phosphenes to present spatial stimuli, we perturbed V1 in a retinotopic manner while participants retained a spatial location in their memory.
Despite more than 3 dozen fMRI studies showing decoding of WM representations from early visual areas, the necessity of these areas for task performance has remained uncertain.

Thanks for amazing supervision from Clayton Curtis and all the cool people from Clayspace lab and help from everyone at NYU CBI without whom this work would not have been successful. PS: it took over a year to get the TMS-EEG setup working!
First paper from my PhD is now out @naturecomms.bsky.social

Love this quote from Sir Michael Atiyah: "Algebra is the offer made by the devil to a mathematician. The devil says, 'I will give you this powerful machine...all you need to do is give up your soul: give up geometry...' when you do algebra...you stop thinking about meaning, about geometry
