I am recruiting a postdoctoral researcher and a PhD student, funded by a new ERC grant. The grant focuses on the role of the hippocampus in visual perception, using 7T fMRI (hippocampal subfields, cortical layers) and MEG+iEEG. The intended start dates for both positions are in early 2027. 🧠🟦 1/3

Sometimes the most interesting finding isn’t loss of function—it’s resilience. Our new @pnas.org study shows that memory-guided attention survives left hippocampal sclerosis, with the brain shifting toward the right hippocampus. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

„Potential mechanisms and functional significance of aperiodic neural activity“ Timely review article by Michael Preston Jr, @syd-smith.bsky.social & Brad Voytek

We are excited to share a new publication led by B&C alumnus Gerardo Salvato, in collaboration with fellow B&C alumna Zita Patai and Kia. The study explores how long-term memory helps guide attention, even when critical memory structures are affected by focal pathology www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

🎉Save the date! Black In Neuro Week 2026 is July 27–Aug 2. We're celebrating our 6th annual BIN Week with returning favorites like #NeuroRacism, #NeuroAcrossTheDiaspora, and #BINRollCall plus a brand new theme: #BlackInTime. ✨ 🧠 #BINW26 #AReimaginedFuture

Finally out: my review in @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social covering how my lab and others have been ‘Looking into working memory through micro eye movements’ over the years. What does the microsaccade bias buy us? A lot I argue. Go see for yourself at: doi.org/10.1016/j.ti...

We have a new Cognitive Control Collaborative website: www.cognitivecontrol.net Six labs, more than 20 trainees, six years of collaboration (and counting). Consider joining us, many of us are looking for new grad students in the fall!

I am looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join my lab at Sabancı University in Istanbul for a 2-year TÜBİTAK-funded position, with possible extension. Interested candidates can email me with a CV and a brief note about their research interests. More details on gunselilab.com soon.

❗3x scholar-at-risk positions (2 post MSc, 1 postdoc) at Uni Trento (several departments incl. CIMeC)❗ 1 year + possibility of 1 year extension. Must hold asylum seeker / refuge or SAR status. Please contact me for more info. Please share!

Attention operates in a changing world, so attentional priority maps must likewise be dynamic. Our (Sage Boettcher, @visualattentionlab.bsky.social, @gwenlliams.bsky.social, Nir Shalev) TiCS paper argues this and propose key questions for future work hoping to account for dynamic priority maps.

Once upon a time Sage Boettcher was my fresh-out-of-college Research Assistant. Now she is faculty at Oxford. I am delighted to still be invited to collaborate with her. "Making time for a dynamic attentional priority map" Boettcher, Williams, Wolfe, & Shalev authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

New work, now out in PLoS Biology. Using intracranial recordings & EEG, we find that the human STN rapidly engages / releases motor inhibition depending on task context, does so in tight accord w/ frontal cortex, and shows little to no lateralization while doing so. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

Does aperiodic activity index neural excitability? Single-unit and LFP recordings during optogenetic interneuron suppression show that aperiodic activity scales with firing, but it depends on context and oscillatory power. New preprint with @juliaveit.bsky.social. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
