Graduation Day for Sylvie and Caleb
Congratulations to Sylvie Loneragen and Caleb Stone, PhD researchers who graduated at St Lucia on Tuesday 15 July, 2025.
Sylvie's thesis titled, Temporal dynamics of belief updating during foraging for visual information.
Caleb's thesis titled, Neurocognitive investigations of uncertainty in perceptual decision-making.
EPC & APCV Joint Meeting 2025 17-20 June UNSW Sydney
Tim Gastrell and Zak Bahmann both presented oral presentations at the EPC & APCV Joint Meeting at UNSW in Sydney, Australia.
Tim's presentation was titled, " Perceptual judgements of noisy visual motion signals are biased by high-precision priors".
Zak who is now at The University of Sydney presented, "Cross modal input does not influence early sensory representations of stimuli".
Mimi' s Poster Session at CNS 2025 Boston, USA
Mimi (Phuong) Dang PhD discusses her poster at CNS 2025.
Dr Margaret Moore at CNS 2025
Dr Margaret Moore presented her poster at CNS 2025 titled, " Expectation dynamically modulates the representational time course of objects and locations".
Mimi wins Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience Travel Fellowship
Mimi (Phuong) Dang PhD was one of the five 2025 award winners of the Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience Travel Fellowship. Mimi's poster title is, "Predictions do not modulate the perception and time-resolved representation of objects".
Researchers can eavesdrop on neurons and measure brain activity in less invasive ways!
EEG (electroencephalography) is a brain-computer interface that uses a cap with electrodes to detect and measure the brain's electrical signals via a computer.
Previously, implanted devices allowed researchers to measure individual cells. EEG, however, captures the collective activity of thousands of neurons, offering less detail. It’s like hearing the cheers of a crowd at a game instead of listening to individual conversations.
This general information about brain activity can be useful for medical therapies, education and even gaming.
