Don’t miss this paper showing how wearables and AI are reshaping attention research, moving us from controlled tasks to the rich, beautifully messy reality of everyday life. And be honest, what's messier than eating spaghetti? 🍝

Our “spaghetti study” is out! 🍝👀
We used wearable eye-tracking + computer vision to capture how attention unfolds during everyday actions such as eating dinner.

Brain and behavior of finding library books, eating spaghetti, and exploring Belgian cities—great talk by @sladouce.bsky.social at the Neuroscience of the Everyday World conference. How is Simon not a professor by now?? Cool research and great presentation!

👀🚶‍♂️ Ever wondered how we pay attention while navigating the world?

We’re running a study in Leuven using eye-tracking, motion sensors & GPS to understand how attention and movement work together while walking in everyday urban settings.

To start my bsky journey, I would love to plug my recent meta-analysis, published in Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, examining the 'Near Advantage' in spatial attention.
