Stunning evening last night at the @isreorg.bsky.social conference dinner at Brisbane's Customs House. (Lucky me sitting with the wonderful @arvidkappas.bsky.social & @nicolenelson.bsky.social - together with our table friends we managed 2nd prize for the after-dinner trivia 🤗) #ISRE2026

It was the anniversary of Adams' death just this week - weird coincidence but I saved this screenshot of a similar puddle quote to my phone only yesterday

This is so ridiculously cool. Modelling drosophila 'grounded running' using a 3D multi camera rainbow rig - and courtship strutting! I want a rig like this but for humans. Wish humans were as teeny 😭

Some excellent questions from the audience after our lightning talks at the Embodied Minds Summit especially around breathing during singing & rhythmic entrainment 🫁🧠 The consensus in the room was breathing is such an accessible interoceptive modality yet also remarkably complex #Interoception

Natalie Christie Peluso 🧠@nataliepeluso· May 6

Brilliant Lightning Talk photos from #EmbodiedMindSummit Salon in LA, where I presented on breathing skill, alongside Emily Choquette, Kiana Aran, the irrepressible @contemplativeneuro.bsky.social 🫁🧠 Thank you @skhalsa.bsky.social for bringing us together so generously. #interoceptive #neuroskyence

Today I was thrilled to speak about breathing at the Embodied Minds Salon in LA - and to be treated to an intimate chat between @skhalsa.bsky.social and Antonio Damasio, steered by Elizabeth R. Koch. Such a fantastic day - can't wait for tomorrow's conference!
