Aperiodic EEG Activity Provides a Linear, Bidirectional, and Spatially Uniform Marker of Subjective and Objective Vigilance in Humans, Both Within and Across States Vigilance is increasingly conceived as a continuum, ranging from full alertness to deep sleep. Despite its fundamental role in cognition, behaviour, and health, reliable physiological markers of vigil...

I will be presenting some of my postdoc work during the very last session of the conference. would love to hear your feedback 📊📢 @assc28.bsky.social #ASSC28

Happy to share the first project of my PhD at #ASSC28, on how voluntary strategies modulate the reading response and how this relates to suggestibility and metacognitive efficiency.

Appreciation to my collaborators, and to @fahrenfort.bsky.social for his support and supervision on this project.

A causal role of the NMDA receptor in recurrent processing during perceptual integration Memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory contours, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing in human visual perception.

We show that memantine selectively improves neural decoding of attended illusory Kanizsa triangles, revealing NMDA receptor-dependent enhancement of feedback processing.

Very happy this is finally out 🎉. In this paper, we show that conf. reports are biased by a visual illusion, an asymmetrical base rate and a payoff scheme. Crucially, we show that only the visual illusion affects subj. experience, suggesting decision bias leaks onto confidence reports.

To celebrate the defence of my PhD, and thanks to
@ibbamsterdam.bsky.social, I will host a symposium titled "Vision as prediction: learning, action, and biases" on June 6. Program, registration and more information here: bit.ly/43reOgR

⚠️ Come see our new preprint, in which we (@degeelab.bsky.social, Jasper Zantvoord, @psterzer.bsky.social, @fahrenfort.bsky.social & @svangaal.bsky.social) show that phasic (task-evoked) and tonic (baseline) arousal distinctly shape human decision bias! (1/6)

I am so happy—this is the first 1st author paper I have written, since the cancer diagnosis of my late wife seven years ago.

Pupil size reveals arousal level fluctuations in human sleep - Nature Communications Arousal levels regulate sleep, but accurate noninvasive measures are lacking. Here, a novel method is introduced to track pupil-indexed arousal levels during human sleep, revealing pupil size changes ...

Visual feature processing in a large stroke cohort: evidence against modular organization Visual features form a crucial stage between sensory input and higher-level object recognition. The conventional model of visual processing posits that qua

1/5 New study challenges modular view of visual processing! academic.oup.com/brain/advanc... Analysis of 307 stroke patients shows mid-level visual processing are distributed across neural networks rather than confined to specific brain regions.

very excited to be at the ASSC and even more excited to be in tokyo 🗼 #ASSC27

I will be presenting some of my postdoc work tomorrow at 14:45 in the Unconscious Processing session. drop by so I can tell you how we replicate some crucial unconscious processing findings.

What is sleep exactly? Global and local modulations of sleep oscillations all around the clock Wakefulness, non-rapid eye-movement (NREM) and rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep differ from each other along three dimensions: behavioral, phenomenologi…

Our review on *Local Sleep* is finally out!

We cover the emerging notion that sleep can be a local brain phenomenon across wakefulness and sleep.
And the consequences for cognition and consciousness.

We covered Pre-processing, Machine Learning and the HMP toolbox for discovering cognitive stages (very cool).

Also many new vacancies. Have fun!

my first paper ever is out now in PNAS 🎉🔥!! (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠) (w/ Simon van Gaal, @juliaha.bsky.social, @smfleming.bsky.social and @fahrenfort.bsky.social) we introduced a novel method to distinguish between effects in subjective experience from effects in decision-making. let me know what you think!
