🚨 I'm joining Rutgers' Neurosurgery (@RWJMS) and the Brain Health Institute (@BHI_Rutgers) as a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor this Fall! 🚨
My lab will use direct-brain recordings to study the neural computations weaving together human decisions, emotions, and memories.

Question: How does #aging impact #motor #learning?
Answer: Aging enhances implicit learning, but reduces explicit motor learning.
New @biorxivpreprint: tinyurl.com/4nw3snwb
Amazing work led by Elizabeth Cisneros!

In a series of experiments involving over 400 human participants, we found that motor adaptation was reduced by symbolic compared to sensory feedback.

In a new preprint, @ivryrich and I dive into the mechanism underlying attenuation upon relearning in sensorimotor adaptation.
TLDR: Interference. But you should read - there is a surprising twist 🙂...

Question: Does the relevance of visual feedback influence how we subconsciously correct for errors in our movement?
Answer: Yes!
In our paper in @JOCN_Journal, we showed that *implicit* motor adaptation is modulated by the relevance of visual feedback.

New preprint!!!
@TianHWang and colleagues dive into movement biases.
Check it out!
Where does the motor bias originate? In this new preprint with @tsay_jonathan @rmhead @ivrylab, we show motor biases arise from the transformation of eye-centered visual information (where is the target) into hand-centric proprioceptive space during motor planning.

🥳 Congrats to Dr. Matthew Warburton @m_warb, who passed his viva last Friday with no corrections and a recommendation of research excellence! ⭐️
Matthew will continue working with CAER as a researcher, with plans for an academic career. Well done, Matthew! 👏

This Sunday I'm back at @EurekaMuseum, this time with my own research! ⌨️🕹
Young families can test their tapping and typing skills with #TurboTyping, and I'll be talking about my career as an Experimental Psychology Researcher for @WomenScienceDay 🤩👩🔬
I love @ScienceWeekUK! #BSW19 was the sixth year I've taken part, and the first representing @ICON_UoL/@LeedsPsyc. It was a total blast! We introduced hundreds of kids to #VR and collected loads of data with our baseball task. Great day w Emily S and Matthew W, #SciComm buddies!

Our paper "Large-scale citizen science reveals predictors of sensorimotor adaptation" is now published in @NatureHumBehav!
Here's a thread on our 5-year journey (2019 - 2024) and findings. 🧵

Dear @AcademicEEG community
Next year marks 100 years since the discovery of human #EEG.
In celebration, we are documenting the impact this discovery has had on our understanding of the brain and asking you to make predictions about the future...

Friends and colleagues! My lab is eager to recruit postdocs to join us. A bit of info on the lab/position is on our website: faculty.washington.edu/aorsb…
I'll be at SfN and would love to chat with folks who might be interested. Get in touch!

We are looking forward to MLMC 2023, held in Washington DC this year on Friday, November 10th!
The abstract submission deadline for MLMC 2023 is September 27th.
See the link below for more details, and we hope to see you there!

Just had the best and most fulfilling work week of the year so far.
Mo: Debuted my #TurboTyping research arcade machine at #BiBFest and had queues of teens and mostly great feedback🔥
Tu: Spoke with @BiBresearch stakeholders and gave out more certificates than to the teens!😂
Ryan Morehead retweeted
Fantastic time introducing secondary school pupils (and many eager adults!) to my #TurboTyping research with a demo of my games.
And I'll be at #BiBFest tomorrow too now - thanks @ConnectedBfd for offering me half your table!
