We have a few datasets which didn't warrant standalone publications, but shouldn't go to waste. Here are 3 visual search datasets (4 exps, total N=151) in hopes that others find it useful osf.io/preprints/osf/…. Please do reach out for questions!

'The forgotten wave of early pupillometry research' by Christoph Strauch @c_strauch cell.com/trends/neurosc…

New preprint alert! In the first project of my PhD, we use RIFT to show that the visual system is not passively recruiting mechanisms of external attention for prioritization in VWM, but is instead using space as an organizational principle to store and select items in VWM.

🚨Preprint alert! 🚨 In this very exciting project, spearheaded by the brilliant Kabir Arora, we use Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) with EEG, to dissociate between neural implementations of attentional selection during memory VS perception: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations to today's poster winners! Yuqing Cai, Qiu Han and Jan-Nikolas Klanke

New paper out in Association for Psychological Science with @chrispaffen, S van der Stigchel, & Surya Gayet. We used three distinct paradigms and consistently found that statistical learning influences the prioritization of visual objects in accessing consciousness. OA: doi.org/10.1177/095679…

Statistical learning facilitates access to awareness journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09… by Luzi Xu @chrispaffen S van der Stigchel Surya Gayet; "enables the rapid extraction of regularities from sensory inputs"; this likely also applies to sensory substitution training

Congrats to Luzi on this awesome PsychScience paper, which has already been picked up by news outlets! See cap-lab.net/outreach and Luzi's links below 🥳

We are looking for a new colleague! #Vacancy for a 4 year fully-funded PhD position in cognitive psychology. The candidate will investigate individual differences in the spotlight of visual attention. Apply before October 6th! uu.nl/en/organisatio…

Interested in joining our lab? We have an opening for a PhD position

I couldn't envision a better place to do a PhD! I had a great time here, and still am. They're looking for a PhD candidate who will use EEG & behavioral methods to study visual attention. Feel free to reach out & ask me about the environment/team (I'm not involved in the project)

We’re excited to kick off the first Helmholtz Lecture of the academic year this Friday, Sep 27, at 4PM CET! Gregor Schöner will discuss how higher cognition is perceptually grounded and embodied through Dynamic Field Theory. More info: bit.ly/4eiXPSk.

This album will lift you to a whole new dimension

Hoe kun je goed waarnemen in een wereld vol afleiding? Hoogleraar en aandachtsexpert Stefan van der Stigchel nam ons mee in hoe je je eigen waarneming kunt sturen, hoe je focus behoudt en hoe je nep van echt kunt onderscheiden. Bekijk de lezing: youtu.be/VaXXxRLTpNA

This Friday (29-11) Helmholtz Institute are hosting another public lecture. All are welcome to attend! The lecture starts at 16.00 in Ruppert Paars, with drinks afterwards. Abigail Marsh: "Altruism, care, and the extended self" helmholtzschool.nl/2024/07/09/hel…

Join us for the next Helmholtz Lecture with Abigail Marsh (Georgetown University) on Altruism, Care, and the Extended Self, this Friday at 4 PM CET. Don’t miss this insightful exploration of altruism and the self! Details: bit.ly/3OpznTF
