(Also fond of Lettvin et al.'s paper on the frog optic nerve, but particularly as beautiful writing more than a beautiful experiment doi.org/10.1109/jrpr...)

What are peoples' favorite fun facts to tell students in neuroscience/cognitive science? One of mine is how dolphins sleep one brain hemisphere at a time. I'm looking for more to break up lectures in content-heavy classes! #neuroskyence #cogsci

Ask yourself:
Could this meeting be a zoom?
Could this zoom be a phone call?
Could this phone call be an email?
Could this email be a text?
Could this text be unsent?
Could we in silence retreat to the forest?
Could we, by game trails & forgotten paths, vanish into the trees?

Vision science peeps, help needed! My grad student has been trying to replicate *very basic* Posner cueing online... to no avail. We've tried several times with Prolific subjects; quadruple-checked our code, and nothing. Valid cues at variable CTOAs are still slower than invalid cues. Any clues?!

A row of letters gradually varying from a L shape to a T shape by repositioning the vertical line.
I've definitely found accuracy effects in search at short durations (~250ms displays at set size 8). You might also try playing around with target-distractor similarity to adjust difficulty, like using T-shaped Ls as distractors in T among L search.
