🏆 A huge congratulations to our talk award winners at #ECVP2026! 🎉 👏 Fatma Kilic — Best Talk Award + £500 prize 📚 Hong Nguyen — PeerJ publication fee waiver 💻 Manjiri Bhat — Testable licence 🧠 Sean van Mil — E-Prime licence Thank you to everyone who took part! 👏👁️ #VisionScience

👁️ Studying visual motion all week 🕺 Becoming the visual motion by Friday

🧪 Research has found that vision scientists can synchronise remarkably well when presented with a familiar motor sequence. The Macarena appears to be a particularly effective stimulus. 👀💃 Further research is required.

The beginning of the end.. #ECVP2026 🍾🎉🥳

A very smiley Michael Amore! Very well done to him for organising the brilliant Illusuon night for #ECVP2026 💛✨

🧠 A little bit of science, a little bit of magic… The Illusion Night was in full swing, with demonstrations designed to make us question what we see — and why we see it that way. 📸 A few moments from the evening at #ECVP2026.

🔴🔵 A different view of perception… The Illusion Night took over the evening with immersive visual experiences, optical illusions and plenty of moments that made us question what we were seeing. 👀🌀 #ECVP2026 #IllusionNight #VisionScience #Perception
