Our reply to 11 commentaries on our article ("Rethinking category-selectivity in human visual cortex") is out in Cognitive Neuroscience! Thanks to @susanwardle.bsky.social @maryamvaziri.bsky.social Dwight Kravitz @cibaker.bsky.social and all who contributed! 1/x www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

We're excited to announce that Cognitive Science at Dartmouth is recruiting PhD students to work collaboratively with me, Steven Frankland, and Fred Callaway. Come study the principles and mechanisms that enable us to understand, plan, and act in the world! Info: sites.dartmouth.edu/cogscigrad/

Thanks for the kind mention, Rosa!

I'm excited to announce that my lab's open textbook on Scientific Computing for Cognitive Neuroscience (v1.0) has just gone live! Our goal is to help mend the gap between the computational skills needed by cognitive neuroscience, and typical curricula that don't yet include it. 1/3

Want to learn what striking visual distortions can reveal about how vision works? Come see my poster tomorrow morning in the Pavilion at #vss2025! "Visual perceptual distortions reveal an object-centered reference frame for faces and a stimulus-centered reference frame for hands". See you soon! 🙂

So far, so good – hope all is well with you too! That's great news! Yes, we'll all be at VSS. Any chance you'll be passing by while we're still around?

Thanks so much, Jud!

Many thanks, Géraldine!
