Excited to share that the main work of my PhD has been published!
We found that having control over pain makes expectations more precise, and changes pain perception. This is accompanied by activation changes in the PAG, SMA and ACC.

Controllability changes pain perception by increasing the precision of expectations
Nature Communications - Control over pain changes how intense it is perceived. Here, the authors show that this effect results from increased expectation precision with control, which changes...

Concern About Predictive Performance of a Pain Sensitivity Biomarker
To the Editor Chowdhury et al1 evaluated a biomarker for pain sensitivity, combining peak alpha frequency and corticomotor excitability. The authors report outstanding performance (validation set area...

✨Excited to share that our new paper is now out in iScience!✨
🧠 We show that people can coordinate surprisingly well in novel interactions by violating others' expectations - without requiring deep, recursive reasoning about others’ beliefs.

How control modulates pain
AbstractPain, an indicator of potential tissue damage, ideally falls under individual
control. Although previous work shows a trend towards reduced pain in contexts where
pain is controllable, there i...

Hi #Neuroskyence #PsySciSky
Introducing our institute of Systems Neuroscience:
This is our large magnet with the radio antenna. With this, several brains can look at one brain. And you can make nails on a thread fly - at least a famous physicist in the institute can make this happen.🧠🧲⚡
