Dynamic Cognition Lab

@dynacog-lab.bsky.social

Exploring how the brain and mind adapt to dynamic environments using behavioural, neural, and immersive methods (PI: Sage Boettcher). Based at @oxexppsy.bsky.social, where we collaborate closely with our friends over at @abclab.bsky.social.

Attention operates in a changing world, so attentional priority maps must likewise be dynamic. Our (Sage Boettcher, @visualattentionlab.bsky.social, @gwenlliams.bsky.social, Nir Shalev) TiCS paper argues this and propose key questions for future work hoping to account for dynamic priority maps.

Making time for a dynamic attentional priority map

Attentional priority is typically conceived as a static spatial map, despite attention operating in a continuously changing world. We propose a dynami…

New paper (first from my PhD!) out in Visual Cognition ✨ @tandfresearch.bsky.social With the wonderful Sage Boettcher @dynacog-lab.bsky.social & Kia Nobre @brognition.bsky.social We ask how temporal expectations can help us find targets in dynamic, cluttered environments when location is unknown.

Curiosity-filled conversations sparked this project and teamwork has carried it forward 🫂 It's been a huge pleasure to be a part of it with @birtandemirel.bsky.social, Sage Boettcher @dynacog-lab.bsky.social, @kateewatkins.bsky.social and Kia Nobre @brognition.bsky.social 🍀 Find out more 🦑🗣️⌛️⬇️
