Congratulations to Samantha Curtis for winning the best student presentation prize at the just finished EPC and APCV joint conference. Her talk title was “Priming the distractor reduces the Stroop interference effect by uncoupling the color and word.”
Huge thanks to the organisers of the joint APCV/EPC conference last week - was wonderful getting the opportunity to catch up on all the awesome work going on closer to home @expsyanz.bsky.social #EPC2025
Had a cracking week at the @expsyanz.bsky.social & APCV conference hosted at UNSW 🙌🏼
Was good fun presenting some prelim findings from my 1st PhD study + chat with some cool researchers 🤓
Thanks for the opportunity to present + see the great work being done in experimental psych! 🧠

Proud to have been part of the small but mighty team behind this year’s EPC/APCV with @sbmost.bsky.social, Branka Spehar & @popwatson.bsky.social.
Pulling off a 400+ person event with just a few academics wasn’t easy, but we managed to do it while keeping that classic EPC warmth and supportiveness.
Congratulations to our HDR candidate Florian Burger on receiving the Best Poster Presentation Award at the recent APCV/EPC Conference! His poster titled "From Visual features to Semantic Structure: Tracing Object Dimensions Through Hierarchical Model Layers."

I had a blast but organising a conference is full on and it's hard to focus on anything else when the thing is running. Thankfully my co-hosts were excellent and the team made it happen. Branka Spehar, @sbmost.bsky.social @jamesdunn.bsky.social. You wear many hats in academia and now I need a rest
@jakeembrey.bsky.social nice shoutout in the final keynote of Prof Ben Newell. Conference due to end, what a blast! @expsyanz.bsky.social
