#MSCA postdoctoral researcher at LMU in Schreiner lab | Interested in sleep and memory
Check out this interesting study showing how the respiratory cycle gates memory reactivations during sleep!
Congrats to @estebanbt.bsky.social and all authors @tschreiner.bsky.social @tobiasstaudigl.bsky.social
Summer Preprint Alert 🔥🚨

Breathing isn't just for oxygen; it’s a rhythmic pacemaker for the sleeping brain.

Our new preprint shows that the respiratory cycle actually gates memory reactivation during NREM sleep! 🧠😴💨

Check out this unique great work led by @fabian31415.bsky.social showing that ripples during sleep could be studied non-invasively using MEG!
Can we study MTL ripples non-invasively?
New preprint! We show that source-resolved MEG tracks ripple-like activity during sleep that:
• localizes to the MTL
• follows the canonical SO–spindle hierarchy
• matches an iEEG benchmark
• indexes memory reactivation

Non-invasive tracking of ripple-like activity during human sleep using MEG
Hippocampal ripples are considered a key mechanism of sleep-dependent memory consolidation. In humans, however, their direct investigation has relied on invasive recordings from patients with epilepsy...

Curious about how your brain’s excitability aligns with your breath, even while asleep? Check out our new preprint!!

Respiratory coordination of excitability states across the human wake-sleep cycle
While the respiratory rhythm is increasingly recognized as a key modulator of oscillatory brain activity across the wake-sleep cycle in humans, very little is known about its influence on aperiodic br...

Very excited to share the first preprint of my PhD thesis!

Together with @tschreiner.bsky.social, we investigated how respiration coordinates signature neural expressions of successful remembering during memory retrieval. 🫁🧠

In our recent @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social forum article www.cell.com/trends/neuro..., we highlight respiration's potential role in coordinating sleep oscillations and memory consolidation. With the fabulous @tschreiner.bsky.social and @estebanbt.bsky.social
A role for respiration in coordinating sleep oscillations and memory consolidation
Memory consolidation is thought to rely on the interplay of sleep-related brain oscillations. Drawing on recent findings that highlight the influence of respiration on these rhythms, we outline a fram...

Ready for an exciting day at #ScienceIsWonderful! Together with @estebanbt.bsky.social and Benjamin, we’ll show kids how to become sleep scientists and explore how breathing influences brain activity. Can’t wait to share the wonders of science!
