POSTDOC Opening: I'm hiring a postdoc to work with me, @ayeletlandau.bsky.social, and Yuval Benjamini on a 4-year NSF funded project to understand timing and memorability in the visual system. fMRI, EEG, eye-tracking all included.

If interested, please DM or email me for more information!

Thanks to NSF and BSF, we've received a CRCNS grant!! 🎉

I'll be working with the amazing @ayeletlandau.bsky.social and Yuval Benjamini to explore and understand how our sense of time and image memorability are linked. ⌛🧠

We have 2(!) post-doc opportunities available - details coming soon!

New paper: the ‘Double Ring Illusion’!
Does the visual system integrate *intuitive physics*? This new illusion developed by Brent Strickland and I offers a straightforward demonstration – one that you can experience yourselves!
Demos in thread👇

We’re looking for a postdoc to join our Max Planck group in Germany some time in 2026. If you have computational and/or neuroimaging expertise, and are interested in questions intersecting perception and cognition, please reach out! I’ll also be happy to chat at the #Bernsteinconference this week.

Thinking of running VR studies remotely but not sure where to start? 🧩 In this tutorial, Levi, Kia, Dejan & lab alumni give an overview on how to collect VR data from remote participants using Unity and Steam.🎮 Make sure to check out their work: osf.io/preprints/os... n/n

Started a new postdoc at Yale in @brognition.bsky.social Lab with Kia Nobre! Studying adaptive cognition in humans using brain recordings—both on and in the head. New lab, new city, new chapter!

📢 New paper out in JoN [@sfnjournals.bsky.social]! With Larissa, Freek [@freekvanede.bsky.social], Kia [@brognition.bsky.social] and Sage [@dynacog-lab.bsky.social], we ask which and when WM contents get reselected after an interrupting external-attention task. 🧵 below (1|9) doi.org/10.1523/JNEU...
Neural Dynamics of Reselecting Visual and Motor Contents in Working Memory after External Interference
In everyday tasks, we must often shift our focus away from internal representations held in working memory to engage with perceptual events in the external world. Here, we investigated how our interna...

Huge congrats to @kianobre.bsky.social on receiving the CNS Distinguished Contributions Career Award! Get a sneak peek of her award lecture in this interview where Kia shares insights into her early inspirations in cognitive neuroscience and her latest work. www.cogneurosociety.org/bringing-new...
Bringing New Focus to the Mind
Kia Nobre’s persistent inquisitiveness led her to study focus – how the brain anticipates, prioritizes, and selects info to guide behavior.
