Welcome to drop by my #CCN poster B54 this afternoon

Looking forward to @compcogneuro.bsky.social's #CCN2025, which takes place in my backyard this year.

If you are there as well, hook me up for a chat, and go and visit
@lassedietz.bsky.social, @liangyouzhang.bsky.social, and
@arora-borealis.bsky.social's posters on Tue/Wed/Fri.

I had loads of fun today, sharing thoughts and projects during a joint lab-meeting with @nadinedijkstra.bsky.social's Imagine Reality Lab. Two hours were way too short to discuss all the cool projects!

Thanks everyone for your contributions 💜

Writing a scientific paper or thesis? Over the years, I’ve gathered my favorite practical writing tips. I hope you find them helpful!

I'm really glad to have this chance to share our numerosity adaptation work at #MCLS2025. Thanks for our organizers.

Preparing overt eye movements and directing covert attention are neurally coupled. Yet, this coupling breaks down at the single-cell level. What about populations of neurons?

We show: EEG decoding dissociates preparatory overt from covert attention at the population level:

Psilocybin, the active compound in magic mushrooms, alters perception and induces hallucinations. In this preprint, we show through visual illusions, fMRI and modeling that psilocybin affects contextual computations, a potentially general mechanism of psychedelics.

🧠 🤝 DI and @nin-knaw.bsky.social have awarded €500,000 to five research projects. The goal of this DI-NIN Fund is to support new and innovative research and to strengthen collaboration: 👉

There is a fully funded PhD position at the Donders Institute (Netherlands) on the neuroscience of imagery and perception. I can really recommend working with @peelen.bsky.social (I did a 4y postdoc there). He is one of those annoyingly smart and dedicated researchers, and is real fun to work with!

Together with the Netherlands eScience Center (@esciencecenter.bsky.social) and led by Tomas Knapen (@tknapen.bsky.social), we're redesigning and developing a open-source, validated pRF software package to drive innovations in psychology and neuroscience!
