Scaling and tuning to criticality in resting-state human magnetoencephalography

Irem Topal, Anna Poggialini, Marco Dal Maschio, Daniele De Martino, Oren Shriki, Fabrizio Lombardi ยท 2026

From 1/f noise to neuronal avalanches, evidence of scaling in brain activity has been increasingly linked to tuning to or near criticality. The concept of scaling is intimately related to the renormalโ€ฆ

The Hydraulic Brain: Understanding as Constraint-Release Phase Transition in Whole-Body Resonance

Ahmed Gamal Eldin ยท 2025

Current models treat physiological signals as noise corrupting neural computation. Previously, we showed that removing these "artifacts" eliminates 70% of predictive correlation, suggesting body signaโ€ฆ
