CCD Outreach

The ARC Centre of Excellence in Cognition and its Disorders (CCD) coordinates interdisciplinary research in the study of cognition and its disorders.

The CCD Legacy Website is now live - celebrating the achievements & highlights of @arc_gov_au Centre of Excellence in Cognition and Its Disorders (2011 - 2018).
Thanks to all our members whose contributions made the CCD such a success! #cognition #impact

Are you an early career researcher (up to 3 years post PhD) interested in cognitive ageing? Consider applying for a Macquarie University Research Fellowship to work in the Centre for Scaffolding the Ageing Mind! Details about Centre and scheme:

How do children’s brains develop to control speech? @Macquarie_Uni Cognitive Science PhD student, Ioanna, is currently recruiting 8-12-year-old children who want to help her answer this question in a brain imaging study. @CCD_Outreach

[CCD Outreach @CCD_Outreach]

These projects and workshops clearly demonstrate the vibrant cross disciplinary research that is being undertaken within the Faculty and will ensure very positive legacy for the CCD.

Pleased to announce CCD Legacy funding of 10 seeding projects & 2 workshops involving 47 different members of staff from across the 4 Faculty of Human Sciences Departments @Macquarie_Uni! inc 20 from Cog Sci, 11 from @PsyMQ , 8 from Educational Studies & 8 from Linguistics. 1/3

[CCD Outreach @CCD_Outreach]

The two workshops focus on (i) clinical applications of brain imaging research using MEG and (ii) how to adapt lab-based technologies (eye-tracking, EEG) to objectively measure the effectiveness of instructional protocols in very young children in natural settings. 3/3

The funded research projects cover many important areas of cognition, including reading, computational modelling, person perception, memory, language, belief formation, reasoning, decision making and number cognition. 2/3

[Hannah Rapaport @hannahRapaport]

My very first 1st-author paper was published in @JoVEJournal today! It outlines a protocol for conducting child MEG studies and is accompanied by a cool video. Check it out https://t.co/3yFRK9paAV
Special thanks to my terrific supervisors Dr Wei He & Dr Paul Sowman @Macquarie_Uni

[Anne Castles - moved to @annecastles.bsky.social @annecastles]

I'm very pleased to announce the opening of our new Macquarie University Centre for Reading (follow us at @MQCReading). Bringing together multiple @Macquarie_Uni researchers, and incorporating our clinic and MOTIf test site, this is your one stop shop! https://t.co/A21PHDauJI

@sabrina_turker @annecastles Unfortunately not, this has just been developed for iOS.
