A collaborative guide to Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT): Methods, insights, and recommendations. New paper by Kabir Arora & al. With Cecília Hustá, @lindadrijvers.bsky.social doi.org/10.1162/IMAG.a.1273

A collaborative guide to Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT): Methods, insights, and recommendations

Abstract. Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) is a recent advance in frequency tagging that exploits novel, high-frequency displays to modulate luminance at imperceptibly high frequencies. RIFT g...

Regularization, Action, and Attractors in the Dynamical “Bayesian” Brain

Abstract. The idea that the brain is a probabilistic (Bayesian) inference machine, continuously trying to figure out the hidden causes of its inputs, has become very influential in cognitive (neuro)sc...

🚨 New preprint: Invisible neural frequency tagging (RIFT) for the underfunded researcher: 👉 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... RIFT uses high-frequency flicker to probe attention in M/EEG with minimal stimulus visibility and little distraction. Until now, it required a costly high-speed projector.

Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) with a consumer monitor: A proof-of-concept

Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) enables neural frequency tagging at rates above the flicker fusion threshold, eliciting steady-state responses to flicker that is almost imperceptible. While R...

Using Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) to probe the neural interaction between representations of speech planning and comprehension. New paper by Cecília Hustá, Antje Meyer & @lindadrijvers.bsky.social doi.org/10.1162/nol_a_00171

Using Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) to Probe the Neural Interaction Between Representations of Speech Planning and Comprehension

Abstract. Interlocutors often use the semantics of comprehended speech to inform the semantics of planned speech. Do representations of the comprehension and planning stimuli interact? In this EEG stu...

Neural tracking: evoked or oscillatory? 🎧🧠 The #TrackingUmbrella paper argues it’s not either/or — both perspectives reveal how our brains align with speech, music, and more. Method matters. Let’s rethink how we measure and interpret tracking! tinyurl.com/ywbe7rrz

Finally out in @commsbio.nature.com ! Using MEG and Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) in a classic visual search paradigm we show that neuronal excitability in V1 is modulated in line with a priority-map-based mechanism to boost targets and suppress distractors!

Our latest study on reading using MEG, eyetracking and Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging headed by Yali Pan from @thechbh.bsky.social : Parallel and dynamic attention allocation during natural reading www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Parallel and dynamic attention allocation during natural reading

During natural reading, attention constantly shifts across words, yet how linguistic properties (e.g., lexical frequency) impact the allocation of attention remains unclear. In this study, we co-regis...

New review out on facial signalling in conversation, making the argument that the notion of ‘speech acts’ is outdated due to its unimodal focus, especially in the light of the fundamental contributions of the face towards social action communication www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Facial clues to conversational intentions

It has long been known that we use words to perform speech acts foundational to everyday conversation, such as requesting, informing, proposing, or co…
