We are currently running our Phd studentship competition (4 year PhD, fully funded -- for details see below), School of Psychology, University of Aberdeen. If you are interested in developing a PhD research proposal with me, please get in touch.

JOB ALERT: PhD opening in my lab! @cimecunitrento.bsky.social in Italy, as part of an Italian FIS3 starting grant. The project will use advanced analysis methods of MEG data to investigate how our world's naturalistic hierarchical structure facilitates predictive neural processing.

New paper! In this study, we identify a previously unreported level of representation in the action recognition hierarchy that is right-lateralized, perceptually highly invariant but not conceptual, and encodes the coarse structure of the effect induced by an action. elifesciences.org/articles/98521
