I'm looking for a postdoc interested in the role of object- and scene-selective cortices in naturalistic visual perception, studied using fMRI and (fMRI-guided) TMS. Location: Donders Institute in Nijmegen, Netherlands. Start date is flexible. Contact me for informal inquiries.

New results show "that the motor-evoked potential reflects a process that adapts and decays quickly, whereas the cortical silent period reflects slow adaptation and decay." "Corticospinal correlates of fast and slow adaptive processes in motor learning" doi.org/10.1152/jn.004…

A new study investigates interaction between internal updating and reafferent visual feedback in determining egocentric representations of object locations. "Causal inference for spatial constancy across whole body motion" doi.org/10.1152/jn.004… Florian Perdreau @pmedendorp

new preprint from Femke Maij, @pmedendorp and myself. Tactile decisions are commonly thought to reflect external location of touch. Turns out to be a myth.

Preprint with ⁦@pmedendorp⁩: State Estimation in Posterior Parietal Cortex: Distinct Poles of Environmental and Bodily States We highlight state estimation as underlying role of PPC and suggest how it may map onto 2D cortex Feedback welcome. osf.io/wbcru/

New pre-print alert! A neural surveyor in somatosensory cortex biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A fun collaboration across my two post doc labs: with Alessandro Farnè and @pmedendorp

People are masters at predicting #behavior. For instance, to estimate whether a car or cyclist will stop. The smartest #machines are still well behind humans in this respect. Pieter Medendorp and colleagues received 3.5 miln funding of NWA to tackle this. ru.nl/donders/news/n…

Professional athletes practice movements that they have performed thousands of times in training just before it is their turn in a game. Why do they do this? New research in #JNeurophysiol ow.ly/Kfs450JJEBa #MovementPlanning #MovementVariability @pmedendorp

Presenting some hot-off-the-press results in my poster at #NCMDub22 tomorrow. Stop by if you want to learn more about how we used corticomuscular coherence to see the effect of evidence accumulation in the motor periphery. Work with Luc Selen & @pmedendorp Sensorimotorlab.

Great sensorimotorlab retreat today. Excellent discussions on 'open science', original research plans, knowledge transfer, career paths!

New paper (Cooke et al) - multiple object tracking in 3D - accepted by PLOS Comp Biol. #probabilisticmodeling #psychophysics

Preparing for @St_DE4DAAGSE , come try out our experiments in the #brainbox! We will be there from 15/7 till 20/7 at Kelfkensbos Nijmegen.

Which reference frames are involved in hand selection during #reaching? Findings from a recent study "suggest that a mixture of head- and gaze-centered reference frames is involved in the spatially guided decisions of hand choice." Link: doi.org/10.1152/jn.007…
