Join us for Fall 2026. In our group, you can run studies from human behavior and neuroimaging, to large-scale NHP ephys, and join them up with a robust computational foundation. Bonus: you can help build the reading list.

Congrats to @evadeligiannis.bsky.social for the publication of her first paper, showing that binocular disparity enhances fMRI activation in depth areas but not face areas. jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx.... Presenting 3D stims with accurate real-world geometry was a tech feat by the whole team!

Please send recommendations for great papers that bring cognitive neuroscience closer the real world. It’s for an undergrad seminar course on “Cognitive Neuroscience for the Real World” and a review article. Empirical, theoretical, or review; broad or specific to subfields of cogneuro. Thanks!

Sofia Varon's new paper shows that participants are better at intercepting moving targets in VR when the shape of the trajectory is consistent with gravity. The results raise interesting questions about how motion perception incorporates trajectory shape. jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx...
