Sander is one of these extremely rare people who will make any place a better place by virtue of their sincere and serious interest in science. Plus all the talent and output. If you don't want to hire him, it's because you don't know yet that actually, you do want to hire him.

New EEG preprint! 🧠⚡️👲
With @robustgar and Sara Sereno, we collected EEG data from 68 participants to test a simple predictive coding account of the word N1 (N170). Surprisingly, we found a pattern of effects in the opposite direction to that expected...

@facesyntax @EPSRC @StacyMarsella @UofGlasgow Thank you!!! It's been such an exciting 5 years (wow, has it really been that long?)! I can't wait to get started on the next chapter😊 But I'll certainly miss accidentally making crazy faces...

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

@thora_bjorns I'll do you one better

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

@_stephanieboyle This sounds amazing! I can't dm you - how else can I get in touch with you?

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

@jonasnoelle @_AlecJacobson Oooooh yes, I have a whole folder full of similar nightmarish but sometimes strangely beautiful mistakes

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

Evidence that I've had the absolute best team (and time) during my @UKRI_News policy internship @DCMS ...I can use this video as a reference, right?

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

Also thanks to the goats of @CronkshawFold for another brilliant video

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

I'm interning at @DCMS We're running a case study! We need people living and working in rural areas to talk about the impact of mobile coverage on their lives

[Rachael Jack @rachaelejack]

Double good news! With @chaona_chen taking her up her @LeverhulmeTrust Fellowship in May 2021, there's a NEW 3-year postdoc position in the @facesyntax lab on the @ERC_Research project until Sept. 2024 (start date negotiable). RTs appreciated & DMs welcome!

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

@twillierod @affectScience @UofGPsychology It can also be a little easier to distinguish them when the expressions are actually dynamic (like the stimuli we used) rather than this static visualisation here. I go into the temporal dynamics a little in my talk 🙂

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

I'll be presenting at #SAS2021 @affectScience on the project "Facial Expressions of Social Traits Comprise Core Affective Signals" - If the sneak peak below has you interested - come along! @UofGPsychology

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

@jkmaccormack @CERE_Emotion @affectScience I had no idea I would be able to get my board game fix at #SAS2021 I'd love to join if there is still space!

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

In this is work by @rachaelejack, @SchynsPhilippe and me we are using data-driven methods to model the face shape and the facial expressions of key social traits and emotions! @facesyntax

[Laura Birka Hensel @LBHensel]

It's this Thursday, April 15th, during the 15.45 BST session - OSF here: https://t.co/0UX0As1ixh
