Excited to share our new #preprint, where we examine how the brain represents vectors (direction & distance) to proximal objects. Data collected at @KISNeuro https://t.co/ZOeP54h9FZ

check out our new paper where we try to bridge the gap between spatial navigation and architectural design, in the context of human aging!!!

So lucky to be able to make new friends with members of Prof. Christian Doeller’s Lab at the iSCAN symposium dinner!

Blown away by their research 🧠🙌

Curious about what VR can do for neuroscience? Come to our event during Hyfer festival. The event includes a presentation by VR experts/neuroscientists + demos where you can try out VR headsets and have fun!! #hyferfest (Free) ticket to the event: https://t.co/KnhUVcpnNQ

[Marcia Bécu @MarciaBecu]

It's a free event, but with limited capacity. Info and free ticket here: https://t.co/KnhUVcpnNQ

Can VR help us fight brain disease? Does it make your life easier? Can it read your mind? Will VR finally bring you NIRVANA?

If you are in Trondheim on Saturday 26th of Septembre, and whether you are a VR-enthusiast or a VR-skeptic: join us on our NE VR MIND workshop!!!

We will showcase some recent developments in the VR world and its potential beyond the hype, for individuals and the society

Always try to start my presentations with such a slide after attending ⁦@ActToCap⁩ workshop on Science communication focusing on story telling!!! People seems to like it 😋

[Marcia Bécu @MarciaBecu]

@kei_m_igarashi It was great to meet you @kei_m_igarashi and share this fantastic symposium with you all! Thanks for organizing 🙌🏻

[Marcia Bécu @MarciaBecu]

We had a lot of Science and Sun during ⁦@LEARNMEM⁩. Now comes the Surf!

[Marcia Bécu @MarciaBecu]

@alinatu0 @KISNeuro @LEARNMEM Thanks Alina! Looking forward to see you again!

[Marcia Bécu @MarciaBecu]

Presenting my work from ⁦@KISNeuro⁩ at ⁦@LEARNMEM⁩! What a chance to be among such great scientists 😍
