I won an award! At this year's Dutch Psychonomic Society meeting @brain-cognition-nl.bsky.social I was awarded the dissertation prize for the best PhD thesis from the past two years. It was great fun and a huuuge honor!!

Thanks Matthias, and of course congrats to you as well! And I must say, we managed to coincidentally have some top notch outfit coordination; must be an @ibbamsterdam.bsky.social thing 👯‍♂️

Are you interested in adding individual differences analyses to your next project but dont know where to start? Then join us tomorrow where @drjt.bsky.social will give us a workshop on the what, why, and how of individual differences research! Sign up below! www.opamconference.com/workshops-su...

We will address this through an integrated behavioural, computational, and neurophysiological approach, focusing on how endogenous perceptual traits interact with the external factors.

PhD and postdoctoral positions linked to this project will be advertised in the coming months.
Stay tuned!

Most of you know @suryagayet.bsky.social as a successful visual-attention researcher. But he also had an active #music career as a #rap artist. And like Jay-Z before him, he has briefly come out of retirement with a new album. Check it out—it's very good! 🎤🎶 open.spotify.com/album/7HrnAB...

Decoding with multivariate pattern analysis is superior for optically pumped magnetometer-based magnetoencephalography compared to superconducting quantum interference device-based systems Background: Multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) has become an increasingly important method for decoding distributed brain activity from neural electrophysiological recordings by leveraging both temp...

Decoding performance (MVPA) better for OPM-MEG than SQUID-MEG 😎. The improved spatial specificity of OPM-MEG due to the reduced brain-sensor distance is key. And more sensors (beyond 40) don't improve decoding.
Preprint from our recent @thechbh.bsky.social study: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Microsaccades strongly modulate but do not directly cause the EEG N2pc marker of spatial attention Researchers often study human attention using microsaccades and the N2pc EEG marker, but it is unclear to what extent microsaccades contribute to N2pc. This study shows that microsaccades modulate N2p...

The human-neuroscience N2pc marker of covert and internal attention co-occurs with spatial biases in microsaccades, 200-300 ms after prompted to shift attention. (How) are these empirical phenomena related? Check it out in the latest work led by @baiweiliu.bsky.social:

We’re looking for a postdoc to join our Max Planck group in Germany some time in 2026. If you have computational and/or neuroimaging expertise, and are interested in questions intersecting perception and cognition, please reach out! I’ll also be happy to chat at the #Bernsteinconference this week.

Open postdoc position👈
We have an open position, starting early 2026, to work on an exciting project aiming at better understanding the role of thalamo-cortical brain oscillations in perception with a comparative, cross-species (animal-human) component based on electrophysiology (incl. scalp EEG).
