New opinion piece together with Roberto Bottini is now out in Trends in Cognitive Sciences! We describe how image spaces in the parietal cortex complement cognitive maps in the hippocampal formation to organize knowledge in different reference frames cell.com/trends/cogniti…

New paper led by Matthias Nau out Nature Communications! We show that directional tuning in human scene- & navigation regions reflects spatial #memory. Paper & behavioral #encodingmodel code are #openaccess. nature.com/articles/s4146… T Navarro Schröder Markus Frey Kavli Neuroscience MPI für Kognitions- & Neurowissenschaften

”It was a mystery how they came to be there. Some suspect that the creatures were illegally released by wildlife activists who, on social media, are called "beaver bombers" 😂😂😂😂 bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

PhD grads/postdocs: We’re hiring! We have an open postdoc role for someone with deep expertise in eye-tracking and time-series modelling. Come join our adaptive interactions team to invent the future of AR at #FRL! Highly qualified candidates pls DM resume (Please RT!)

Part 2 of our new series of videos on robust statistics applied to EEG data has now been released. Check it out. #EEG #eeglab #Statistics youtube.com/watch?v=l0hkOS…

The Neuroergonomics Conference will host a digital webinar series, leading up our conference. Join us! The first (Oct 27, 2020) begins with a keynote by Prof. Art Kramer on "Implications of Physical Activity & Exercise on Cognitive & Brain Health". eventbrite.com/e/neuroergonom…

Our latest paper is out! Continuous decoding of cognitive load from EEG reveals task-general and task-specific correlates. ML of cognitive state starts to show promise when one can demonstrate task-generalizability. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32947265/

Now out in Cognition! We created a *new* way to capture the detail of multiple features in an object, with a single response. Across 3 experiments, features are held in memory in a dependent (integrated) manner. Stay tuned for extensions of this task using shape-color objects!

New preprint! Here we used EEG while participants are walking *for real* in a maze and find activation in areas of the navigation network! A promising step towards ecological brain imaging for spatial navigation biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New paper! Predicting visual attention using the hidden structure in eye-gaze dynamics. We demonstrate successful prediction of future gaze locations in a complex VR environment using long-term dynamics in gaze. (to appear at #CHI2021 EMICS workshop!) tanyajonker.com/assets/publica…

Been a long haul but I can finally share my first, first author paper from my PhD. Findings suggest alcohol-induced blackouts have an impact on next day memory function PLOS One: journals.plos.org/plosone/articl… #plosoneauthor @CoRGiS_UoS Stirling Uni Psych @StirlingScience University of Stirling

Yet we all still have to suffer it in some format when applying for industry jobs…please…just no!

TheRealSPR This is work with Ashima Keshava and Artur Czeszumski where we joined forces with KTH in Stockholm to investigate the neural signatures of error processing in different social scenarios.

Hey sorry I didn’t text u back for 2 weeks I just became completely jaded with the entire human experience haha anyways what’s up

Type I Zoom error: you think people can hear you, but you’re actually on mute. Type II Zoom error: you think your muted, but actually people can hear you.

Two brain cells are sensing each other. And trying to connect: #neuroscience by Lila Landowski

This study analyzes pilots' cognitive states and the effects of stepwise increased mental workload (MWL) while controlling for mental fatigue using both #EEG & #fNIRS. fNIRS was more sensitive to low difficulty tasks & EEG to high difficulty tasks. nature.com/articles/s4159…

“Nearly 100% of published studies… confirm the initial hypothesis. This is an amazing accomplishment given the complexity of the human mind and human behaviour. Somehow, as psychological scientists, we always find the expected result; we always win!” royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

New preprint! We show that we can track the "mind's eye" in the EEG. More scientifically🙂: 1) Inverted encoding models trained on alpha-band power can track dynamic transformations to spatial locations held in working memory. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/4
