Can the rubber hand illusion change how much pain we feel? We combined evidence from 22 experiments and found no meaningful effect in healthy participants, challenging the idea that body-ownership illusions reduce pain. Study led by @coppi_sara. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Excellent news! Nature is expanding Registered Reports to all the fields in which they publish! A great result by all those proposing this strong solution to publication bias and selective reporting (and getting expert feedback before data collection)! nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

GPT 5.2 drains your time being overcautious. Grok 4 wastes resources being reckless. This is what we found benchmarking 16 AI models on Eleusis: a game where you form hypotheses, test them, and refine theories, just like real science 🧪♠️ New video on @huggingface channel ⬇️

Now out in @NatureNeuro What happens to the brain’s body map when a body-part is removed? Scanning patients before and up to 5 yrs after undergoing an arm amputation, we discovered the brain’s body map is strikingly preserved despite amputation nature.com/articles/s41593-0… 🧵1/18

Merci au Canard Enchaîné de se soucier de la crédibilité scientifique du @HCERES_, l'organisme qui évalue l'enseignement Supérieur et la recherche. @suprecherche Que son président soit prêtre ou psychanalyste, ce serait vraiment une mauvaise farce.

Now out in @NatureHumBehav We show that people can learn to control bionic hands just as effectively and in some ways better, using unnatural control strategies compared to strategies that mimic natural limb control. nature.com/articles/s41562-0… @plasticity_lab @Chris_I_Baker
Should bionic limb control mimic the human body? We trained 60 users to operate a myoelectric bionic hand to study the benefits and challenges of biomimetic control strategies for assistive bionics. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… With @Chris_I_Baker, @plasticity_lab and more. 🧵1/6

I'm happy to share our new paper with Henrik Ehrsson (@BrainSelf) and Marie Chancel (@ch_ncel) on the effects of texture congruence on body ownership, using a rubber hand illusion psychophysical method. Check out our thread! 👇 doi.org/10.3758/s13415-024-0…

Paper alert! Many of us assume that when amputees feel a touch on their face, they also sense it in their missing hand, all thanks to brain plasticity. But what if this is based on flawed scientific evidence? Here’s a breakdown of our paper doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.202…

What is the cost of science being conducted in English? @tatsuya_amano &co reveal that non-native English speakers spend more effort than native speakers in conducting scientific activities (reading, writing, preparing presentations...) #PLOSBiology plos.io/46Rfptc

“Borderline no longer has a place in clinical practice.” I read this paper a couple of months ago and meant to share here. I join the authors’ call to get serious about shifting our thinking on what’s called personality pathology. We can do better. We must do better. 1/2
