Check out our lab's new paper by the brilliant @luakoenig published in @PLOSBiology yesterday! Spontaneous slow cortical potentials and oscillations both influence conscious perception. In this paper, we show that they do so via independent mechanisms.

Delighted to report the publication of our new paper with @BiyuHe in @PLOSBiology. In the study, we find that oscillatory and non-oscillatory neural signals likely influence conscious visual perception independently. https://t.co/frmRJWkb1J

This was a wonderful creative conversation, thank you @luakoenig

✨ Check out this fascinating piece from postdoc @luakoenig in @hii_magazine on the connection between the creative process in art 🎨and science 👩🏻‍🔬

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

@AmitVinograd @jonvgill @hii_magazine Just listened to @RickRubin's podcast on the @ezraklein show and loved it -- so will definitely check this book out! Thank you for sharing

[Jon Gill @jonvgill]

✨Be sure to check out this piece by the brilliant @luakoenig for @hii_magazine on the connection between the creative process in art and science! 🎨🎼👩🏻‍🔬There may be an interview with yours truly in there, along with links to some great music. 🧔🏻🎵🎸🎹

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

I’ve always felt that the creative processes of science and art closely mirror each other. Especially for something as weird and unique as consciousness. @hii_magazine gave me the opportunity to write about the parallels between science and music: https://t.co/woAs2XzvJs

In-person attendance is invitation only, but there are a limited number of slots for trainees to present posters (with an $800 travel stipend each).

How are our perceptual expectations influenced by changing statistics in our uncertain world? Our new paper w Kirsten Rittershofer and @ClarePress shows that expectations are quickly updated when previously-learned perfect relationships are degraded: https://t.co/yK4UhhoK6B

[Fabian Eckert @fpeckert]

We are super excited to put this out into the world with @Conor_A_Walsh and @sharatganapati.

It’s the result of a long effort to think about the origins of the urban-biased growth that has been reshaping our politics and society for the last 40 years.

A little thread 🧵

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

@CaesarEkya @copeliamainardi @MarianneleMag I will when I have a moment! 😎

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

The wonderful @copeliamainardi interviewed me about synesthesia for @MarianneleMag! Thank you for the opportunity 💭

[Copélia Mainardi @copeliamainardi]

💡🎨Et sinon, c'est quoi la synesthésie ? Fusion des sens, trouble de la perception : cette semaine dans @MarianneleMag, décryptage de ce mystérieux phénomène neurologique au croisement des sciences, de l’art et de la métaphysique. Avec les éclairages de @luakoenig et @vmignerot

[Emily Thomas @emilyrthomas27]

I'm happy to be starting my postdoc with @BiyuHe at @NYULH_Neuro today! Excited to work on projects examining theories of conscious perception and prediction in the brain 🧠

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

@jorgemlg @Northeastern Congrats Jorge! Amazing news 🔥

[Matthias Michel @MatthiasMichel_]

Our response to @ibphillips' view on blindsight is now out in Psychological Review (w/ @hakwanlau)! Let's keep the debate going: I'm also currently working on a longer response to defend the orthodox view: blindsight is unconscious vision. https://t.co/ZKC3vqY9al

[Templeton World Charity Foundation @TempletonWorld]

What is the relationship between #consciousness and the brain? A new project led by @BiyuHe will use adversarial collaboration to test the HOROR, PRM, and RPT theories of visual consciousness: https://t.co/wX5cK2npeh

[Biyu Jade He @BiyuHe]

We currently have an open post-doc position in my lab at NYU to study neural mechanisms of human perception. Experience with advanced neuroimaging data analyses and/or large-scale computational modeling especially desirable. Come join our awesome team! https://t.co/KIaYBmDZI0

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

Our new paper with Tony Ro just came out, in which we demonstrate TMS-induced numbsense, the tactile analog of blindsight. https://t.co/ZWAKuBE8kZ

[Lua Koenig @luakoenig]

Delighted to announce the start of my postdoc at @nyulangone with @BiyuHe. Especially excited for our multi-lab adversarial collaboration testing first-order vs. higher-order theories of consciousness funded by @TempletonWorld. 🥽🎉
