New paper: across 3 EEG experiments, we examined how do we edit WM at test. Imagine you were asked to memorize 4 colored squares during encoding: at test, when you were given a single test probe, are you able to remove the items at irrelevant positions (upper), or do you have to keep'em (lower)? 1/n

Our work during my RA in Taiwan is out! "Cortical representation of motion sequence processing in younger and older adults: an fMRI study" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New preprint! 🚨 Work w/ Sangita Dandekar & Clayton Curtis at NYU during my PhD. We show how prefrontal & visual cortices coordinate to keep working memories alive via localized & long-range β-band dynamics. 🧠 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... (1/5)

🎉New paper out today in Nature Reviews Psychology🎉 with @mjdahl.bsky.social, @mariamaly.bsky.social, and @thiasmittner.bsky.social. We've been working on a unified framework for attentional states and the dynamics of transitions between them. 🧵

Two postdoc opportunities @yale.edu in human neurophysiology. One position in my lab @wutsaiyale.bsky.social focusing on human cognitive neurophysiology. Details at helfrich-lab.com/news/ Plus a possible collab with anesthesiology 👇 #NeuroTwitter #NeuroJobs #neuroskyence #EEG Please share.

My review on the "Confidence-accuracy dissociations in perceptual decision making" is now published. I think that this will be useful to both experts and newcomers to the field. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Our new preprint on bioRxiv! rFEF+ is not necessary for exogenous attention, as revealed by TMS. And together with previous studies, we complete a double dissociation: rFEF+ is critical for endogenous but not exogenous attention, whereas V1/V2 is critical for exogenous but not endogenous attention

Just got the fun news that our paper "Prayer and Perceptual (and Other) Experiences" published in Cognitive Science is one of their top 10 most cited papers published in 2024! 🥳 @wiley.com #TopCitedArticle onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

New paper in PNAS! When the mind wanders, it often drifts to the body. We call this "body-wandering". These thoughts are often negative, but are associated with reduced ADHD & depression symptoms, driven by a distinct interoceptive-allostatic brain signature. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2520822123

In a new preprint, we use a combination of 2AFC and discrimination tasks to quantify sensory, decisional, and metacognitive noise in units of the physical stimulus. We find that, across two experiments, sensory and decisional noise are comparable, while meta noise is lower. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Are our intuitions about consciousness reliable? In our new paper, we argue that building a reliable scientific foundation for intuitions about consciousness is not only necessary—but also achievable—for advancing consciousness science. w/ Sang Chul Chong doi.org/10.3389/fpsy...

Now published in Perception (@pec-ipe.bsky.social)! Schulz-Hildebrandt, H. (2026). When purple perceived only at fixation: A fixation- and distance-dependent color illusion. Perception, 0(0). doi.org/10.1177/0301...

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...

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

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...
