📢I am looking for a postdoc to work on the cognitive neuroscience of self-beliefs at Institut du Cerveau - Paris Brain Institute 🤩🧠✨ - details here: marionrouault.weebly.com/uploads/4/5/7/… informal inquiries are welcome & RT is appreciated 🙏

Today the paper by Paolo Papale et al. came out, showing that neurons in area V1 of the visual cortex code for scene information, even if they are not stimulated directly, because of an occluder that hides part of time image. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… youtube.com/watch?v=QuEQXW…

We are now accepting proposals for tutorials and symposia at #ASSC27. x.com/ASSC27tokyo/st…

Our lab currently has an open postdoc position in the field of perceptual neuroscience. Specific questions: w flexibility, and a focus on vision; Techniques: open (fMRI, E/MEG, iEEG, stim, modeling); Salary: $70,000 or higher (w excellent benefits); Start date: flexible in 2024

Some dream faculty jobs this year in cognitive science. Here are just a few in case you missed them:

If you’re on Neuro-twitter, your feed is also probably full with reactions to last week’s letter targeting IIT and its validity as a scientific theory for consciousness. Cynically, the letter has shifted the debate from « Define consciousness » to « Define pseudoscience » 🤓😜

While not a big fan of the recent "pseudoscience" name-calling, I have to confess that, like my 124 colleagues, I am quite disappointed by IIT's inability to make anything but banal predictions concerning the recent ARC-Cogitate adversarial collaboration. (1/n)

*possibly not pseudoscience* - new paper in Neuron with Paul Muhle-Karbe Hannah Sheahan Nico Schuck @hugospiers Giovanni Pezzulo. Goal seeking compresses neural representations of space (in hippocampal BOLD.) enjoy. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Excited to be at #SfN23 #SfN2023! I'll be presenting a poster on the EEG correlates of normative belief updates on Monday 13th, with Simon Kelly and Peter Murphy. Board TT17, 4-5pm - come say hi!

If we had used/start using "theory" (vs "hypothesis") more appropriately, would this have saved us a lot of unnecessary (twitter) drama? And how many "theories" of consciousness would there still be?

Tenured at NYU. I'd like to thank all those who wrote me letters. I'm beyond grateful to my past and present mentors, mentees, colleagues and peers who have inspired and challenged me, and made me into a better scientist.

Discrimination based on nationality is not allowed @UniCredit_PR . Maybe time for some more formal legal steps.

As this paper is getting traction, let me share 5 major technical concerns in this thread: openreview.net/pdf?id=WaLI8sl…

Announcement for ASSC abstract submission - This year, it'll be held in Tokyo from July 2-5. assc27.net/#abstracts Call for Abstracts The deadline for abstract submission is February 23, 2024 (5pm Japan time).

Excited to share new work with Doby Rahnev where we test convolutional neural networks on a range of perceptual tasks involving stimulus energy manipulations (joint changes in stimulus intensity and variability): biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/4)

🧠🎉 Super excited to see my work with the incomparable Biyu Jade He out in JCoN!!! A short 🧵below on the neural mechanisms determining the duration of spontaneous perceptual behavior (1/8) direct.mit.edu/jocn/article-a…

📢I am hiring a PhD candidate! Are you passionate about unraveling the mysteries of consciousness? And do you want to delve into fMRI, pupillometry, and information theory to understand how sensory predictions shape our perception of color? Apply here: ru.nl/en/working-at/…

more jobs: postdoc openings in Korea, w/ *pathway to independence*. the ideal candidate has experience in calcium/optical imaging or electrophysiology in behaving mice, & has strong interests in the prefrontal cortex, perception (any modality), and/or neurovascular coupling... 1/

Saturday evening. Thousands gather in front of the criminal Netanyahu's house to protest for the hostages and call for peace! We need better leaders. Down with this horrible, racist , militant government. Peace!
