I'm excited to share that I'll be joining Université de Montréal's School of Optometry as an Assistant Professor this fall! My lab will focus on understanding how we process and represent the dynamic and complex visual world, using AI, behavior and neuroimaging. Recruiting grad students for 2027!

Another new preprint! t.ly/XaePh I had some math fun with distance equations and found out some stuff 🤓 We propose cross-validated (CV) Euclidean + correlation distances with improved reliability and accuracy, for RSA and beyond! 🧵👇(1/13) ⚠️Many equations below 📈but some MEG data as well!

Improved cross-validated distances for multivariate pattern analysis

Characterizing the dissimilarity of neural representations between experimental conditions, and tracking it across time, is a central goal of multivariate pattern analysis. Guggenmos et al. (2018) ass...

New preprint! t.ly/yxfsh Several EEG features are commonly analyzed to characterize brain development. We showed that the latent structure of these features (their distances) also differed between children and adults, and that these distances are much more robust to non-developmental factors.

Our Viewpoint paper just got accepted at Journal of Neuroscience! @sfnjournals.bsky.social We show that there are actually *two* temporal "dimensions" to consider in visual perception and we discuss the promises of a method to disentangle them. 🧵👇(1/7) t.ly/9DgIF

Come see our poster at OHBM! We looked at how various neural features are organized in children vs adults. Turns out not only feature values differ across development, also their organization! Moreover, such feature relationships are way more robust to task/stimuli than feature values.

After a mental health hiatus and trying something else for a while, I’m back (on here and in science)! 😄 Couple updates coming in the next months. It seems like a lot more people have arrived on bluesky in the last 18 months… Excited to see what everyone’s been up to! 🙂

It's #VSS! Come see our poster Saturday PM about the representations of expectations across time and brain regions! #VSS2024

I don’t know if people here have seen this here but there is a new #psychjob wiki sites.google.com/view/psychjo... #SocialPsych #Psychology #PsySciSky

Screenshot of LinkedIn post by Amédee Marchand Martella: The Psych Job Wiki (a fantastic resource for finding positions in academia for psychology & educational psychology) is ending and as such, Alyssa Lawson and I have created a new site to keep the wiki going. For those of you (or anyone you know) who will be on the job market this coming academic year, looking for tenure track, non-tenure track, or postdoc positions, here is a link to the new wiki. Feel free to spread the word, use the wiki, and contribute.

VSS is down at abstract submission time 😱
