@skhalsa.bsky.socialOur goal: connect interoception research across species, organ systems, disciplines & levels of analysis through a shared digital network, annual meetings/workshops, common terminology & data standards, and training. 2/2
@skhalsa.bsky.socialI’m excited to announce the launch of BPCCIR: Building the Future of Interoceptive Neuroscience —a new 5-year, $3.5M NIH Blueprint U24 Coordination Center focused on advancing the science of brain–body communication.1/3
@skhalsa.bsky.socialHere here! Scientific knowledge whether basic or applied can have so many unforeseen impacts, and sharing this widely clearly only increases this potential
@skhalsa.bsky.socialThe project involves vibrating capsules, EEG, psychophysiology and Bayesian modeling to examine clinical biomarkers. You'll test cutting-edge hypotheses about bottom-up versus top-down processing of bodily signals, with opportunities to publish, collaborate, and innovate. Email for details. 2/2
@skhalsa.bsky.socialPostdoc job alert! I’m looking for someone with a PhD in neuroscience/psychology, psychiatry, computational modeling or a related field to join my NIH-funded team at UCLA studying the neural & computational mechanisms of #interoception in anorexia nervosa 1/2
