Sensory Neural Noise as a Limiting Factor in Visual Working Memory Precision in Neurotypicals and Schizophrenia https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.10.20.683426v1

Check out our new preprint on bioRxiv! "Polar angle asymmetries persist despite covert spatial attention and differential adaptation"

A nice shift in perceived colour between central and peripheral vision. The fixated disc looks purple while the others look blue. The effect presumably comes from the absence of S-cones in the fovea. From Hinnerk Schulz-Hildebrandt: arxiv.org/pdf/2509.115...

Check out the mini-review I wrote about ipRGCs on visual processing! doi.org/10.3389/fnin...

Excited to share that our work, "Changes in auditory evoked responses at different levels of linguistic processing in adults and school-age children: An MEG study," is now out in Neuropsychologia! authors.elsevier.com/a/1lVCr_fKKp...

Check out our new paper “Visual adaptation stronger at the horizontal than the vertical meridian: Linking performance with V1 cortical surface area” in PNAS! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Tomorrow morning (May 18, 8:30 am – 12:30 pm) I will be presenting my poster with Marisa Carrasco @vssmtg.bsky.social at Pavilion Endogenous attention enhances contrast sensitivity similarly around cardinal meridians despite differential adaptation effects! #VSS2025

A new preprint by myself! I drafted a journal club article arguing that intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) are responsible for more than just non-image-forming functions osf.io/preprints/os...

This work was funded by the National Eye Institute, one of the NIH’s 27 institutes. It’s history: “Congress established the National Eye Institute (NEI) in 1968 to protect and prolong the vision of the American people.”

Our new preprint ‘Preferred spatial frequency covaries with cortical magnification in human primary visual cortex' is now online. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to share that our paper, "Multimodal Machine Learning Can Predict Videoconference Fluidity and Enjoyment," has been accepted for an **oral presentation** at #ICASSP! ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/108... @dustinfreeman.bsky.social @davidpoeppel.bsky.social 1/n

Our new preprint is now on bioRxiv! 'Visual adaptation stronger at horizontal than vertical meridian: Linking performance with V1 cortical surface area' www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

A question that comes up in almost all of my talks is: are respiratory and cardiac interoception correlated? Aside from subjective confidence, the answer is no (see figure). Working on a new little paper with this now.

woah. Doby went solo on this! it was a correct decision for me to 'retire' from this field, sort of

I thought it’s just NYU. Turned out it’s everywhere lol

i plan to move to Korea later this year, & will soon hire at all levels (students, postdocs, staff scientists, junior PIs) - docs.google.com/document/d/1... my lab in Japan will run till at least 2025. my job has been nothing but the dream job. but hopefully the above explains it. #neuroscience

Is there domain generality in metacognition? We review the current evidence with @audreymazancieux.bsky.social, @meaperei.bsky.social, @nfaivre.bsky.social, Chris Moulin, and Céline Souchay. PDF free to read here: rdcu.be/drmJv

Does music training make us less susceptible to audiovisual audiovisual speech illusions? Together with Karleigh Groves, Pablo Ripollés, and Marisa Carrasco, we showed that McGurk effect is actually impervious to music training www.nature.com/articles/s41...

My last study in Taiwan (but was interfered by Covid) was published today😀 For the first time, we combined Law of Comparative Judgment and signal detection theory, tried to provide an objective and quantitative index in metacognition of emotion. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
