Together with recent work by @olaf.dimigen.de on using RIFT with a monitor setup, as well as our own new preprint on using a monitor setup to track attention (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...), RIFT is now a lot more accessible both in terms of available recommendations and materials.

Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) is a recent technique that extends the traditional frequency tagging approach by stimulating at frequencies beyond the threshold of perception (≥60Hz). By doin...

Launched in 2023, Imaging Neuroscience is now firmly established, with full indexing (PubMed, etc.) and 700 papers to date.

We're very happy to announce that we are able to reduce the APC to $1400.

Huge thanks to all authors, reviewers, editorial team+board, and MIT Press.

Academic authors, here's a peek into the black box of journal publishing from an journal editor if you can bear it:

🚨WHOHOO!! I am happy to share that I received the #ERCStG for my project PRECHRON: The Prefrontal Chronometer for Organizing Working Memory.

I am going to study #neuraloscillations during #workingmemory at the @rug.nl @rug-gmw.bsky.social

🚨 New preprint: Invisible neural frequency tagging (RIFT) for the underfunded researcher:
👉 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

RIFT uses high-frequency flicker to probe attention in M/EEG with minimal stimulus visibility and little distraction. Until now, it required a costly high-speed projector.
Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) with a consumer monitor: A proof-of-concept
Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) enables neural frequency tagging at rates above the flicker fusion threshold, eliciting steady-state responses to flicker that is almost imperceptible. While R...

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

Are you looking for a precise monitor for vision science, eye-tracking, or EEG? In a new preprint (w/ Arne Stein), we tested a new type of display with excellent performance in time-critical experiments: "High-speed" (240 Hz) OLED monitors. All details here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The recent introduction of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) monitors with refresh rates of 240 Hz or more opens new possibilities for their use as precise stimulation devices in vision research, ex...
