Got a chance to present our poster with James Coughlan & @echodislocation.bsky.social from @skeriresearch.bsky.social on modeling human echolocation using a Kalman filter approach at this year's #CCN26 in New York. The preprint is available here: doi.org/10.64898/202...
A scientific poster titled 'Modeling human echolocation using a Kalman filter' is pinned to a presentation board at the Cognitive Computational Neuroscience (CCN) 2026 conference in New York.The image depicts Sofia, the first author on the poster, standing with the poster in her background.

In June I took part in the 10-day ERP Bootcamp at UC Davis. Feeling honoured and grateful for this truly wonderful learning and networking experience!

🚨 New preprint: How does an echolocator orient toward an object in a realistic active-sensing scenario, where #echolocation is interleaved with motor actions? We took a shot at finding out: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Sensorimotor dynamics of target acquisition and homing in human echolocation
Blindness imposes constraints on the acquisition of environmental sensory information. To mitigate those constraints, some blind people employ active echolocation, a technique in which self-generated ...

With some trepidation, I'm putting this out into the world: gershmanlab.com/textbook.html It's a textbook called Computational Foundations of Cognitive Neuroscience, which I wrote for my class. My hope is that this will be a living document, continuously improved as I get feedback.

Thank you #imrf2025 for providing the space to share ideas and to all the people who were interested in our Kalman Filter-based echolocators and provided valuable comments. The poster session was a blast! And thanks @echodislocation.bsky.social for capturing only the best facial expressions!

The gif contains two altering images of the person with different funny facial expressions as they explain their poster.

Was really looking forward to finally attending after so many years of not being able to due to visa and political issues, and now that I'm inside so many people worth seeing in person are not coming due to a different set of political issues 🙃

B.t.w. I get that the society is being put in an exceptionally bad situation. I don't envy them at all. And I am sure they did not want to change this, but felt like their hand was forced. That said -- we should resist. Is there any other choice?

Been caught up in life, but glad to finally announce that I've started my postdoc journey into EEG & perception in the absence of vision with @echodislocation.bsky.social at @skeriresearch.bsky.social. Here's to lots of new exciting things to learn & understand, that'd hopefully help those in need!
