Philipp did amazing work on this. Pnomics, do not miss this poster!! 🧑‍🔬👩‍🔬

In this amazing work, led by Tim Ricker and @EvieVergauwe we probed the relation between the storage of continuous and categorical info in working memory representations. Do we form a single representation that combines these two sources of info or store them separately?

Apply! Organize a symposium with people that do work in similar topics than you. Open-up the discussion, gather different points of view, and create a great opportunity to network. And, we would love to welcome you in Porto! 🇵🇹

#WMInPress Happy to share my 1st paper with Dr. Alessandra Souza: The Interplay of Long-Term Memory and Working Memory: When Does Object-Color Prior Knowledge Affect Color Visual Working Memory? accepted at JEP:HPP🎉🥳 Post-print: psyarxiv.com/8a2jw/ 1/6

Original work by my prior PhD student Dr. Clara Overkott, in awesome collaboration with Candice Morey

Things could be better zpr.io/EeP6qFyVHbnU

Getting ready to visit Berlin and give a talk on bccn! I will discuss ways in which we can leverage our knowledge (language, prior experience) to bypass the limited capacity of visual working memory, and build more robust and high-fidelity representations

#Escop23 Deadline approaching: 10 more days to submit your symposium proposal for ESCOP 2023 in Porto, Portugal: escop2023.org/submissions/su… Deadline on the 15 December! Apply!

. Hannah Dames @hannahdames.bsky.social & Oberauer uncover robust directed-forgetting effects in working memory. The data suggest 2 underlying processes: one reducing memory strength of previous items & another boosting memory strength guided by intentions. JEP: Gen 👉psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/xg…

If you are interested in working memory and would like to do a PhD in a supportive and international environment, join our lab in beautiful Switzerland! 👇🦩🧠🇨🇭

My first registered report (and paper!) "Examining the role of attention during feature binding in visuospatial working memory" with my amazing supervisors Nicholas Cooper and Vanessa Loaiza (@vmloaiza1) is now published: link.springer.com/article/10.375… 🎉 1/4

This was the hardest week of my life. I can't even comprehend what people are going through there. I am doing the only thing I can do; fundraising. Check out my JustGiving page and please donate if you can. Thank you! #JustGiving justgiving.com/fundraising/Ed…

Academic valentines 🌹Roses are red 💙Violets are blue 👩‍🔬Academics love conferences 🇵🇹 And ESCOP in Porto 🧳Is the next place to go to! Apply! Abstract submission deadline: March 15 escop2023.org/submissions/su…

Importantly, we will be hiring researchers at different levels – we want to have you here and build something great with us! We will offer competitive startup packages. Note that we are highly committed to hiring researchers from underrepresented groups – especially women! 🧵4/6

Happy to announce the release of the R package 'BenchmarksWM', designed to facilitate theory development in working memory research. Check out the introductory preprint psyarxiv.com/vm9pq and give it a try!

Do you work/study while listening to music? Do you think that music helps? Our new paper in the Journal of Cognition shows that music with lyrics interferes with cognitive tasks. The effects are small (d = ca. 0.3), but credible. doi.org/10.5334/joc.273

It is my great pleasure to announce the innaugural edition of SAW (the Seeing and Acting Workshop) in Coimbra, Portugal - September 21-23, 2023. And what an absolutely spectacular group of invited speakers!!! Wow! Do join us (QRcode below for registration) and send an abstract!!!

See this new review paper on the precarity of the academic career: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3102/00… by the team of Cosmin Nada We need to break out of this loop of fixed-term contracts and "careerist strategies" that exploit our work and reduce our well-being.
