Dissociable dynamic effects of expectation during statistical learning Neural responses during statistical learning reveal dissociable dynamic effects of expectation, supporting the opposing process theory within trials while demonstrating contrasting effects across tria...

🚨New paper alert 🚨

Using EEG and decoding analyses we find dynamic effects of expectation during statistical learning, both within and across trials 🧠

A Movement-Independent Signature of Urgency During Human Perceptual Decision Making - PubMed How does the brain adjust its decision processes to ensure timely decision completion? Computational modelling and electrophysiological investigations have pointed to dynamic 'urgency' processes that serve to progressively reduce the quantity of evidence required to reach choice commitment as time e …

Check out our new paper which isolates a human brain signal that specifically tracks the growing urgency to commit to a choice pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41611534/. This one was a long time coming! Sterling work from @harveymccone.bsky.social and a bunch of past lab members!

Geng Lab @ UCDavis Our sensory worlds are filled with information, but we are only aware of a small proportion of it at any particular moment in time. Attention is the mechanism that prioritizes processing according to ...

I'm a bit late in posting this... but I'm delighted to have joined UC Davis as a postdoctoral scholar with Professor Joy Geng (genglab.ucdavis.edu/home)! I've really enjoyed my first couple of months working alongside Joy, Steve Luck, and Tim Hanks. Very excited for what's to come in the year ahead!

1/7 Can infants recognise the world around them? 👶🧠 As part of the FOUNDCOG project, we scanned 134 awake infants using fMRI. Published today in Nature Neuroscience, our research reveals 2-month-old infants already possess complex visual representations in VVC that align with DNNs.

New pre-print with Rebecca Brady on mathematical models to simulate audio-visual reaction time tasks.
This debutant paper has three main goals:
1. To simulate different mechanisms of multisensory integration and compare with the behavioural findings 1/8

Disentangling sources of variability in decision-making - Nature Reviews Neuroscience Identifying the psychological and neurobiological processes underpinning intra-individual variations in choice behaviour presents a formidable challenge. In this Review, Duffy et al. discuss how algor...

In life, 3 things are certain: death, taxes, and decision-making variability🧠. Our review tinyurl.com/4dcwafc4 explores how computational models 💻 explain variability, their limits, and recent advances. A thread🧵👇
