In developing ferret visual cortex, experience transforms diverse and unreliable responses into reliable representations. This process is proposed to involve the alignment of feedforward and recurrent networks. FIAS Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience Goethe-Universität Sigrid Trägenap [email protected]

Our language neuroscience lab (evlab.mit.edu) is looking for a new lab manager/FT RA to start in the summer. Apply here: tinyurl.com/3r346k66 We'll start reviewing apps in early Mar. (Unfortunately, MIT does not sponsor visas for these positions, but OPT works.)

Alon Hafri and I wrote a thing! We touch base with research on scene perception and outline the advances and open questions raised by the perspective that processing relations (between objects) is a central function of visual perception. osf.io/preprints/psya… CNRS 🌍 Univ. of Delaware

New preprint! 🧵 Are perception and memory fundamentally independent processes, or are they overlapping and impossible to disentangle? We turn to the well studied face system to ask this question, using a new task and 4 datasets with 800+ participants. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

An essential read about the importance of learning sign language early in life for kids with deafness. Implants can help deaf kids hear—but many still struggle with spoken language | Science | AAAS science.org/content/articl…

In a time with so much uncertainty and depressing news, I'm looking forward to #CNS2025 to share some research with a community of colleagues and friends. If you’re interested in talking science (or otherwise) there, ping me!

Curious about action observation, it's generalization, and it's link to action execution? Come hear Kyungji Moon's talk about tool-use generalization across the hand and foot tomorrow morning at #VSS2025 (8:15am)

Happy to share my latest work with Scott Glover. Royal Holloway Psychology Surrey [email protected] We show that motor imagery is functionally distinct from physical action, supporting the #Motor #Cognitive model of motor #imagery. Read the theoretical implications 👇psycnet.apa.org/record/2026-33…
