Trying to understand how the brain makes sense of the world with (and despite) eye movements. Active visual cognition, Combined eye-tracking/EEG, EEG methods. Toolboxes: EYE-EEG, opticat, UNFOLD. Previously @Berlin. Tenured Asst. professor @Groningen
- Everyday visual experience tunes neural processing. Using fixation-related EEG, this new work shows how the N1 preview benefit depends on Chinese readers' prior experience with left-to-right vs. up-down reading. @umaurer.bsky.social www.authorea.com/doi/full/10....
- Happy to be a collaborator on this new work by first-author Xin Huang from Urs Maurer's lab. In two combined eye-tracking/EEG experiments, we asked whether rapidly processed magnocellular (M-pathway) information in parafoveal vision plays a special role for word recognition in natural reading.

- Reposted by Olaf DimigenTogether with recent work by @olaf.dimigen.de on using RIFT with a monitor setup, as well as our own new preprint on using a monitor setup to track attention (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...), RIFT is now a lot more accessible both in terms of available recommendations and materials.
- Reposted by Olaf DimigenLaunched in 2023, Imaging Neuroscience is now firmly established, with full indexing (PubMed, etc.) and 700 papers to date. We're very happy to announce that we are able to reduce the APC to $1400. Huge thanks to all authors, reviewers, editorial team+board, and MIT Press.

- Reposted by Olaf Dimigen🚨WHOHOO!! I am happy to share that I received the #ERCStG for my project PRECHRON: The Prefrontal Chronometer for Organizing Working Memory. I am going to study #neuraloscillations during #workingmemory at the @rug.nl @rug-gmw.bsky.social #brainstimulation #TMS #EEG
- 🚨 New preprint: Invisible neural frequency tagging (RIFT) for the underfunded researcher: 👉 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... RIFT uses high-frequency flicker to probe attention in M/EEG with minimal stimulus visibility and little distraction. Until now, it required a costly high-speed projector.

Reach out to @elkanakyurek.bsky.social, @van-rijn.org, @olaf.dimigen.de, @miles2708.bsky.social or myself to explore options!
- Choose Science. Choose Europe. A new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowships 2025 call is now open. With a budget of €404.3 million, it will support around 1,650 researchers from Europe and beyond. Apply by 10 September → europa.eu/!fBTMgF
- Reposted by Olaf DimigenInstead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.
