Has anyone attended any pre-data-collection poster sessions (i.e., poster sessions where people present their plans for experiments before data collection in order to get feedback when it's most useful) at conferences other than VSS?

New paper with NicoleAnayaSosa and @violastoermer.bsky.social now out in Perception! "Testing location invariance of the flashed face distortion effect" journals.sagepub.com/eprint/WVUFW...

Tomorrow afternoon I'll be presenting my symposium talk at #ESCoP2025 titled "Meaningful and familiar stimuli support visual working memory for simple features"! See you there!

We are now recruiting STEM mentors for the 2025-2026 graduate school application cycle! ⏰ Mentor applications close on July 31st, 2025 ⏰ ✨ APPLY HERE: dashboard.project-short.com ✨ Questions? Email us: [email protected] #gradschool #phd #phdapplication #gradadmissions

New paper with LaurenWilliams, @timbrady.bsky.social, and @violastoermer.bsky.social now out in JEP: General! "Limits of verbal labels in cognition: Category labels do not improve visual working memory performance for obfuscated objects" psycnet.apa.org/record/2026-...

Today afternoon I’ll be presenting my poster at #vss2025 titled “Perceptual and conceptual contributions of the real-world object benefit in visual working memory: Is looking like an object good enough to enhance memory?” See you at Pavillion!

New paper with Kaira Shlipak and @violastoermer.bsky.social now out in Journal of Memory and Language! “Fluid intelligence correlates with working memory capacity for both real-world objects and simple-feature stimuli” www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Excited to see everyone at #VSS2025 - Come check out what my lab has been up to over this past year:

Hello VSS friends! Want feedback on your current projects? Submissions for our pre data collection poster satellite are still open until tomorrow. More info here: www.visionsciences.org/2025-pre-dat... @vssmtg.bsky.social @shansmann-roth.bsky.social @willngiam.bsky.social @yonghoonchung.bsky.social

The deadline is coming up to present at the pre-data poster session at #VSS. It's the perfect venue for those who want to have a conversation about an idea or a topic (especially early-career researchers who may not have something in-the-works!). #visionscience www.visionsciences.org/2025-pre-dat...

New Preprint with @timbrady.bsky.social and @violastoermer.bsky.social : www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Here we show increased neural delay activity associated with remembering features as part of real-world objects. 1/

Tomorrow morning I’ll be presenting my poster at CNS @cogneuronews.bsky.social B10: “Increased neural delay activity for simple features when they are remembered as part of real-world objects” Come chat with me about how semantic associations may improve feature working memory! #CNS2025

Presenting my poster @opam.bsky.social today 11:30am: “Can you remember them better because they are familiar or because they look real? Testing the contribution of object-ness in visual working memory with novel objects” See you all there!
