🚨Fresh from the press (typical Flemish saying)! Directing children towards the goal of a task contributes to faster and more efficient learning of new letter-speech sound correspondences. Read more about it in our (OA!) article in #ChildDevelopment! https://t.co/kDq2JYlLBk
Great seeing most of our ESRs and PIs back in Athens after a long period of COVID restrictions. Although autumn weather has arrived in most of our countries, Greece has shown its best side with sunny coffee breaks at the pool and delicious Greek food.
Having attended a wonderful 3-day workshop on career development with talks by our amazing @neoprismc consortium in my hometown is the best way to end the month of September.
Here's a photo of some of us in front of the Parthenon.
🚨More than happy to announce that our word N170 and its relation to reading review is out! Many months, frustrations and sleepless writing nights later but happy to have shared this journey with @kathamora and @arianetretow (I can recommend the Finnish lakes as a writing spot!).
After spending blood, sweat, tears and going through COVID infections, our systematic review in visual word N170 is finally out. So glad to spend this journey with @arianetretow and @verwimpcara. Thanks to our PIs and @neoprismc! https://t.co/CKVcygUblt

👀New preprint! 👀
We find that in reading, the brain uses 2 strategies to control the eyes
Reading times (fixation durations) depend on linguistic processing, but skipping (fix. location) depends on low-level oculomotor processing

The first ever Filipino Nobel Laureate is a woman. So proud of @mariaressa and her fight in protecting our freedom of expression, which is currently curtailed by the Duterte regime. 🙌🙌🙌
BREAKING NEWS:
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize to Maria Ressa and Dmitry Muratov for their efforts to safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for democracy and lasting peace.

So happy to have attended tutorials and talks about cutting edge EEG methods and meet different people in the field. Kudos to the @CuttingEeg organizers - it was a fun learning experience. Excited to implement in my study what I have learned this entire week! :)
4 of our ESRs presented their work at the @CuttingEeg conference in Aix-en-Provence this week, their first on-site conference since the beginning of their PhD.
The end of 3 fruitful days. Already 2 years since we met for the first time in Cyprus. This @neoprismc meeting planned in Crete, was organized online due to the pandemic. It has been a long and difficult period, but we hope that we can meet in real life in Belgium next time.
I’m writing a new book called Applied ERP Data Analysis, which includes dozens of exercises using the EEGLAB and ERPLAB Matlab toolboxes. It includes both GUI-based exercises and script-based exercises. I’m worried that people who are new to Matlab will run into problems. 1/n
Three ESRs within our consortium are working together on a systematic review focusing on the visual word N1 in typical and atypical reading development. Amazing to read that @CorteseSamuele's workshop could contribute to their knowledge. Exciting things will follow!
📜New Preprint!🎉
In an 'automated literature analysis' we collect & analyze >20,000 papers on event-related potentials (ERPs), building profiles & analyzing patterns across the literature (w @bradleyvoytek).
