Düfeld and @sarahjessen.bsky.social (2026) show that the father’s odour influences neural responses to emotional faces in 7-month-old infants, and that this influence appears to be specific to male faces👶🧠 #infancypapers #DevPsySky #PsychSciSky #emotions doi.org/10.1111/infa...

Lunch Lectures Entwicklungspsychologie! 📅 05.05.2026 ⏰ 12:00 Uhr via Zoom Wir freuen uns auf den Vortrag von Prof. Moritz Köster (Universiät Regensburg) zum Thema: How infants make sense of the physical and social world Details: drive.google.com/file/d/1g4Jv...

New paper out from our lab, together with Anat Perry! We asked if empathy is reduced when watching someone in pain in a pre-recorded video or live. Short answer: no, at least as far as our behavioral and electrophysiological measurements go. Check out the long answer in the paper: rdcu.be/fdEMr

The Obleser lab will be hiring soon! New postdoc (fully funded) and new PhD or part-time postdoc position (soft-money funded). Spread the word. Start in Sept/Oct. Watch out for official announcements! Please be in touch. auditorycognition.com obleserlab.com hoerhanse.de lemmi.uni-luebeck.de

Liebe JuMis der Entwicklungspsychologie! 👋 Unser virtueller JuMi-Mittagstisch ist aus der Pause zurück. Nächstes Thema: „Auslandsaufenthalt in der PhD- & Postdoc-Phase“ 🌍✈️ 📅 Freitag, 08.05.2026 ⏰ 12:30 Uhr

Our latest results on bioRxiv! Our EEG study shows that human brain activity consecutively supports both Bayesian integration and prediction‑error signalling. Plot twist: prediction‑error signalling appears to be consistent with the Reverse Hierarchy Theory! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

New paper from our lab 👶🧠: We know quite a bit about how a mother’s odor can influence social processes in infancy, but what about dad?👨‍🍼(1/2)

Does our very human ability to anticipate #musical structure exist at birth? @robertabianco.bsky.social @giacomonovembre.bsky.social &co show that #newborns encode #rhythmic (but not melodic) expectations based on statistical regularities in real #music @plosbiology.org plos.io/4kqKVWg

📈🧠 We're looking for brains! 🧠📈 Postdoc + PhD positions are available to help pioneer fetal MEG with optically pumped magnetometers, measuring prenatal responses to sound and light to understand how we start making sense of the world even before we're born. 🐣 Please get in touch to hear more!

Looking for a Master internship and interested in timing the interplay between timing and hearing? 🔽 brainthemind.com/openings/

🥁 New preprint 👇 got the whole @kinderstudien.bsky.social lab working together 🤗 plus some friends, guests & alumni. Our developmental take on interpersonal neural synchrony - from basic entrainment to communicative rhythms to shared representations 🧠🧠

Are you interested in what to do with all that movement data you often get in your neuroscience measures? Is it just noise, or how can we make use of it? This December, we are organizing a workshop in Lübeck to discuss precisely these questions. (1/2)

Out now in @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social! Check out our new article discussing how social odor can impact other sociocognitive processes in infancy. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Do babies sense their own body rhythms? Our new paper on 🫀 & 🫁 interoception in 👶 is now out in @elife.bsky.social: Respiratory and cardiac interoceptive sensitivity in the first two years of life doi.org/10.7554/eLif... @kinderstudien.bsky.social @univie.ac.at led by @markustuente.bsky.social

Check out our new preprint on how infants respond to music over the first year of life! 👶🧠💃🎶 While neural responses are pretty much ready to go in the youngest, moving to music takes a bit longer, becoming more complex and potentially more dance-like by 12 months. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We're looking for a PhD student interested in developing brains and developing new methods to study them! Anna Kowalczyk and myself have a fully funded PhD position to advance OPM-MEG methods for infant and neonatal brain imaging. 👉 Please repost to help us spread the word 🙏 More info & links 👇

@sarahjessen.bsky.social of the Babylab @uniluebeck.bsky.social took Martin Orf and me from the @jonasobleser.bsky.social lab along an intriguing journey into the neural fate and consequences of a mother‘s voice in her infant’s brain. Under review now. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

First time holding my book ✨ I had so much fun writing about the absolute miracle that is the first years of human development. For parents, practitioners and anybody interested in the latest research on early social, cognitive and emotional development 👶 Babies are the best 🫶
