Lecturer of Visual Perception, University of Edinburgh. Views are my own.

This project was over 3 years in the making, and builds on prior work from ourselves, and many others, to show that retinotopic coding scaffolds the interaction between perception and memory recall - such a fun collaboration!!

Very happy to announce THINGS-data, three massive datasets of fMRI, MEG and similarity ratings of thousands of object images. THINGS-data offers a uniquely broad, systematic and multimodal sampling of object space. For early access please reach out! https://t.co/rUrAvPKIoX

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

Awesome work by @neuro_steel again! Thanks for including me.

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

@SarahCEStanton Congratulations Sarah!!

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

Couldn’t think of anyone more deserving than Susan. Wonderful scientist, colleague and friend. Congratulations @susanwardle !

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

A great opportunity to work with one of the best in the business!

[Hilary Richardson @hilaryrichardson.bsky.social @hil_richardson]

Just a reminder that applications to this funded PhD studentship working with me here in Edinburgh are due in two weeks! (April 14th).

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

What a fantastic opportunity. Can wholeheartedly recommend this position!

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

This is a fantastic place to work with a growing cog neuro community. Come join us!

[Hilary Richardson @hilaryrichardson.bsky.social @hil_richardson]

Bumping this up again: come join our fabulous department! Apps due 28 Feb.

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

Amazing work here! The precise mapping of selectivity converges nicely with the more coarse scale retinotopic bias we identified in the human hippocampus.

[Caroline Robertson @RobertsonNeuro]

@Neuro_Physics @Nature Very cool! Ties in nicely with recent work in the fMRI literature showing retinotopic encoding of visual stimuli in human hippocampus by @edsilson @Chris_I_Baker @Tknapen and @corticalpete https://t.co/voSyG1l2rC

A fitting award for an exceptional scientist and mentor. Well done Chris!

[Cibu @C2theB2theU]

And the 2021 NIH Directors award from NIMH goes to ⁦@Chris_I_Baker⁩. “For exceptional impact on the field of cognitive neuroscience, by conducting innovative experiments, developing shared resources, and providing novel….“ Congratulations Chris! https://t.co/6M9VMDvJaZ

[Ed Silson @edsilson]

@emiliejosephs This is really cool! Consistent with the work of @iris_groen, @ChrisBaldassano and @Chris_I_Baker showing that functional features of scenes explain behavioural assessments better than neuronal measurements.
