@evadeligiannis.bsky.social and I have a new paper forthcoming in Annual Review of Vision Science: “Bringing Vision Science Closer to the Real World”. The uncorrected proofs are available online. www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...

Don't forget to tune in to Neuroscience Research Day on February 19th and 20th! 🧠 Explore cutting-edge neuroscience research from Western University students & London researchers. Free event open to all curious minds. See you there! songsuwo.ca/nrd2026

Are you interested in a MSc/PhD in human sensorimotor neuroscience? Learn to design experiments, analyze data, read & write papers, present at conferences, & work with a vibrant group of students & faculty in a world-class research environment. #neuroskyence #psychscisky gribblelab.org/join.html

Now published in the Journal of Neurophysiology: journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.... Get in touch if you think this tool could help in your science! We will be developing improvements and extensions over the next year.

@cjep.bsky.social paper on gender equity in cognitive science @nserc-resnet.bsky.social funding, highlighting progress in past 6 years. Led by @mcgillscience.bsky.social psych trainee Michelle Yang; co-authored w/ @pennypexman.bsky.social. A @wicscanada.bsky.social effort. doi.org/10.1037/cep0...

Join us for Fall 2026. In our group, you can run studies from human behavior and neuroimaging, to large-scale NHP ephys, and join them up with a robust computational foundation. Bonus: you can help build the reading list.

Thrilled that our paper is out today in Nature! www.nature.com/articles/s4...

Exciting update: The Canadian Society for Brain, Behaviour and Cognitive Science (CSBBCS) will host its 2026 Meeting at York University,(June 1–3, 2026), followed by the Cognition and Action Satellite Workshop (June 4–5). @jdcrawford.bsky.social @yorku-cian.bsky.social www.yorku.ca/research/cia...

Here’s what you can expect at the Canadian Cancer Society #CIBCRunForTheCure. ✨ On Sunday, October 5, join your community for the CIBC Run for the Cure to raise vital funds for the breast cancer cause because we all have a reason to run. 💗 Register for the run today: bit.ly/3JVDNQu

In this 'How to' Comment, @gribblelab.org gives advice on how to think about one's academic website and how to go about building one. #AcademicWebsite www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hi #canadian researchers - please sign this petition to help ensure funding isn’t cut to tri council agencies (NSERC, SSHRC, and CIHR). We’re looking at potential 15% cuts to ALL federal spending including grants win.newmode.net/canadianasso...

Congrats to @evadeligiannis.bsky.social for the publication of her first paper, showing that binocular disparity enhances fMRI activation in depth areas but not face areas. jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx.... Presenting 3D stims with accurate real-world geometry was a tech feat by the whole team!

I am excited to share that I’ll be joining Penn State as an Assistant Professor in August 2026 🎉 My lab will study how the mind simulates concept meaning, bridging perception, action, imagery, and language. sites.psu.edu/cisclab/ I am recruiting grad students for Fall 2026. Connect if interested!

Congratulations to Flo Martinez-Addiego and ‪@striemamit.bsky.social‬ for the publication of a cool new paper in PNAS showing that high-level actions like tool use generalize between hand and foot, even in individuals born without hands. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Please send recommendations for great papers that bring cognitive neuroscience closer the real world. It’s for an undergrad seminar course on “Cognitive Neuroscience for the Real World” and a review article. Empirical, theoretical, or review; broad or specific to subfields of cogneuro. Thanks!

Absolutely delighted to see that one of my favorite researchers, longtime colleague, and friend, Jody Culham, @culhamari-lab.bsky.social is the recipient of the 2025 Davida Teller Award from the Vision Sciences Society @vssmtg.bsky.social. So well-deserved. 🧪🧠 www.visionsciences.org/2025-davida-...

Sofia Varon's new paper shows that participants are better at intercepting moving targets in VR when the shape of the trajectory is consistent with gravity. The results raise interesting questions about how motion perception incorporates trajectory shape. jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx...
