Uncovering the spatiotemporal structure of neural avalanches through optimal transport and dynamic time warping

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) July 16, 2026 Filip Novický, Nikola Jajcay, Jaroslav Hlinka

Neural avalanches - or threshold-defined bursts of coordinated activity - are traditionally characterised by scale-free statistics. However the study of their detailed spatiotemporal structure and their recurrence within spontaneous activity has been hindered by the variability of avalanches in duration and spatial extent. To tackle this challenge, we propose the use of flexible alignment: we...

EEG microstate dynamics during psilocybin intoxication relate to acute experience and persisting psychological changes

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) June 12, 2026 Nikola Jajcay, Čestmír Vejmola, Jakub Korčák et al.

Abstract Psilocybin and other serotonergic psychedelics show therapeutic promise for psychiatric disorders, yet objective neural correlates linking the acute psychedelic state to persisting psychological outcomes remain limited. Electroencephalography (EEG) microstate analysis characterizes the rapid spatiotemporal organization of large-scale brain activity, offering a millisecond-resolution...
