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.

1/ Why are we so easily distracted? 🧠 In our new EEG preprint w/ Henry Jones, @monicarosenb.bsky.social and @edvogel.bsky.social we show that distractibility is associated w/ reduced neural connectivity — and can be predicted from EEG with ~80% accuracy using machine learning.

How does the visual system track moving objects while remembering the color of those objects? My latest research article (co-first with Piotr @styrkowiec.bsky.social) exploring this question using EEG is out in JoCN! @jocn.bsky.social #workingmemory #cognition #cogneuro #cogsci #neuro

New pre-print day! Distributed and drifting signals for working memory load in human cortex 🧠 (with Ed Awh & @serences.bsky.social)

Very excited that this work led by Darius is out! Darius actually joined the Awh-Vogel lab at the same time as me (the summer _before_ his first year of college) and it was awesome to watch him learn, grow his skills and complete such excellent work!

The Awh Vogel lab is heading to Psychonomics!
We made a page on our lab website to cover everything, including Ed Awh's OPAM keynote address!

Find the great work on display from Chong, Igor, Matthieu, me(?), and Park!
