Finally, we have Isaac perfectly matching the VSS vibe and presenting on his awesome first-year project!

Thanks everyone for a wonderful #VSS2025, we'll see you next summer!
Isaac discusses his poster, entitled "Distinct connectivity fingerprints reveal functional specialization in the ventral visual stream", with viewers at VSS 2025.

Yuxuan killed it with her third poster investigating configuration and feature processing! Way to go Yuxuan, your work is fantastic!
Yuxuan chats with a fellow VSS attendee in front of her poster, entitled "Rethinking configurational and feature-based processing in visual recognition".

Having fun at dinner with the @zlab.bsky.social! What's better than hanging out with research friends on the beach :)
Five people stand together, posing for the camera, on a beach with palm trees and lights. The sunset and hanging lights cast a warm glow. Eight people stand together on a beach, posing for the camera, while a ninth person sits in front of the row of people holding a "Happy birthday!" balloon. Two palm trees and a sunset complete the beach background.

We'll be at #VSS2025, presenting on the awesome work that's been happening in the lab all year long. Come check out our posters and say hi!

Thanks for all the organizing, @vssmtg.bsky.social, we see the work you do!
An infographic with a white background and motherboard wiring-esque elements in each corner. The heading reads "CBCers at VSS 2025", and the body lists off the day, time, location, presenter, and poster title. From top to bottom, the body reads: "Sunday, 8:30-12:30, pavilion, Keara Ginell, Memory-Guided Spatiotemporal Attention. Monday, 8:30-12:30, Banyan Breezeway, Yuxuan Zeng, Rethinking Configurational and Feature-Based Processing in Visual Recognition. Monday, 8:30-12:30, pavilion, Isaac Liao, Distinct Connectivity Fingerprints Reveal Functional Specialization in the Ventral Visual Stream." The Ohio State logo and the CBC lab logo share the final remaining space at the bottom.

Happy last day of classes, it's been a great semester!
Eight people stand in two even rows in front of a glass and concrete building. A tree stretches its branches in the top left corner, and greenery abounds on the ground.
