SUPER excited to share the first-ever preprint out of my PhD! AND it comes with a CAT story. I know there are quite some people here who love seeing cat pictures!! 🐈1/🧵

🌈 New preprint! With Sage, Melissa, and Kia (@dynacog-lab.bsky.social, @scenegrammarlab.bsky.social, @kianobre.bsky.social), we explore how attention is divided across external perception and internal working memory - revealing a dynamic trade-off between these two domains. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Congrats @jasminpatelsci.bsky.social!!! Thrilled to be part of this new preprint looking at how the brain represents moving objects when they are temporarily hidden from view 🧠 👀

Hi! Just released a preprint on occluded object EEG decoding with @renrutmailliw.bsky.social, Madi Jarvis, Harry Nagel, @amandakrobinson.bsky.social, and Hinze Hogendoorn- Check it out if of interest! doi.org/10.31234/osf...

🌊 👀 Can two simple patterns create something that really isn't there? This new paper introduces Dynamic Illusory Waves (DIWAs)—a striking illusion where relative motion gives rise to flowing, transparent phantom surfaces. Make your own: maltacogsci.org/diwa/ Full paper: doi.org/10.1177/2041...

👁️🧠🧪 Vision takes time. But how does visual information flow through the human brain? Our new PLOS Computational Biology paper uses population receptive field (pRF) modelling to bring the spatial precision of fMRI to MEG, revealing the temporal dynamics of visual areas. 📖 doi.org/10.1371/jour...

Non-invasive mapping of the temporal processing hierarchy in the human visual cortex

Author summary Vision doesn’t happen instantaneously, but unfolds over time. While we understand a lot about how the brain processes visual space, understanding how the brain processes information ove...

I'm happy to share that last week I had two papers published! 🎉 One is my first PhD paper, and the other comes from my time as a research assistant at Proaction Lab. If you're interested in how well we remember speed, or how object knowledge is organized in the brain, follow the thread 🧵

Interested in how people perceive and remember the speed of visual objects? Our paper (see also the blueprint/ thread below) is now out in the Journal 📔 of Vision!

Many things in the world move, and can even move behind other things. When will the cat reappear? To predict this, remembering the cat’s speed will likely help. But... how do people remember something like speed, which is defined by displacement over both (🤯) space and time? TWEEPRINT ALERT! 🚨🧵1/n
