Many things in the world move, and can be occluded. When will the dogs reappear? Remembering their speed will help predict this. But... how do people remember something like speed, which is defined by displacement over both (🤯) space and time? TWEEPRINT ALERT! 🚨🧵1/n

We looked at hysteresis effects (they're in the data!), the role of eye movements (they can't explain the findings), and more. But importantly, people are MUCH BETTER recalling the speed of a single dot moving around fixation, then the speed of more texture-like dot motion!! 8/n

All in all, we characterize human memory for speed & show speed is better recalled for spatiotemporally bound than texture-like stimuli (the added dimension of space helps!). Tnx for reading & stay tuned for Giuliana’s next work linking speed memory to motion extrapolation! 9/9

🚀🎓We have exciting opportunities at the PhD and Postdoc level, including in the new Simons Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience, a 10-year initiative spanning a powerful international network of labs working across species and disciplines! x.com/SimonsFdn/status/19154…

We are so excited to announce our new Simons Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience (SCENE)! This 10-year program will unite experts in experimental and computational #neuroscience approaches to investigate how the brain represents sensorimotor interactions. simonsfoundation.org/2025/04… #science

Why can we decode visual mental contents from primary visual cortex when there’s little evidence for sustained spiking in this part of the brain? Today at #CCN25 poster C104, Noa will present a tentative answer from her work with attractor models. 2025.ccneuro.org/abstract_pd…

Can we draw conclusions about orientation tuning from EEG data? And… exactly how inhomogeneous is decoding across the visual field? What started as a “quick analysis” of some EEG data is now out in #naturecommunications. See the tweeprint below or check rdcu.be/eugi0.

Who doesn’t like a good model of the brain? Yet, from simple regression to artificial networks, some limitations keep popping up (eg, overfitting). @mijowolff & I saw some cool but puzzling data, ran a quick analysis, and found 1 such limitation: model mimicry. Tweeprint 🚨 1/N

From a bear catching a fish to a tennis player hitting a ball - extrapolating the trajectory of an object is critical to know its future location. Giuliana will talk about the mechanisms that underlie such motion extrapolation at #VSS2025 this next session in Talk Room 2!!
Welcome #VSS2025! For those attending the sunny beaches and science at this years Florida conference, make sure not to miss the awesome talks and posters from our lab!
