Our mobile lab is now ready 🚐!

Just coming back from Adriatica Summer School ⛱️☀️ thanks to the organizers and all attendees for such fun and smart interactions!

🚨 New paper out!
Phase confusion: How inconsistent cardiac labeling obscures interoception research 🫀🧠

We unpack methodological incosistencies and propose a way forward with the HEARTS framework.

1st paper of great @angeliacaparco.bsky.social!

En el próximo curso 25-26:

Nuevo Máster Universitario en Cognición & Sociedad

🧠🎓🔄🏙️🫂🌏

6. We also outline how to expand research beyond the lab:

• Use multimodal wearable sensors
• Track physiology in real-life contexts
• Design active paradigms that include movement, choice, and timing

This enables a more realistic understanding of perception.

5. We call for 'Broader population diversity' to enhance ecological and translational validity; given that in Perception-Interoception studies:

• ~80% university students
• Mean age: 23.8 (in EU, avg is >40yo)
• Gender imbalance

4. In the 2nd part of the review, we move into a more forward-thinking approach ⏩:

🔥 How to increase ecological validity of Perception-Interoception studies?

#OpenScience #EcologicalValidity

1. Perception is not only about the stimuli outside.

Heart, lungs, & gut send signals that rhythmically influence what we see, hear, or feel.

We first review the evidence.

After a lot of work, I'm overjoyed to share that our lab is complete with the last additions: Victor & Ford Transit 🎉

Well, one small dream accomplished: having my kid having fun in the office and univ.

Here she is crafting a novel paradigm.

🔊 If you are in the #MindBrainBody Symposium in Berlin, check @angeliacaparco.bsky.social poster, a preliminary analysis of kindly shared @freekvanede.bsky.social lab's data.

📌'Precision of visual working memory is modulated by the cardiad cycle'.

Poster C06. 15.25-16.10pm

Preprint updated. One of the edits: including a set of recommendations under the acronym HEARTS 👇

Nice catch up in Barcelona with the IasLab: visiting their labs for digital arts + talking about interoception & active sensing —w the mastermind Albert Barque-Duran

Dear all

I'm hiring a PhD candidate (3 years) to work in Active Sensing, EEG & Interoception! 🧠🫀🫁

This is a great opportunity: beautiful campus, novel research. In collab. with the Max Planck Inst. -> @mgblr.bsky.social

Deadline: 22/11/24

Hello World!

Presenting a bit what I've been cooking: Active Cognition, Embodiment, and Environment Lab (ACE²Lab) shorturl.at/WqKOE

We rarely leave our eyes or hands still and wait for things to appear. Our research examines the dynamic ways people actively sense & interact with stimuli.
