🚨 I'm joining Rutgers' Neurosurgery (@RWJMS) and the Brain Health Institute (@BHI_Rutgers) as a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor this Fall! 🚨 My lab will use direct-brain recordings to study the neural computations weaving together human decisions, emotions, and memories.

Question: How does #aging impact #motor #learning? Answer: Aging enhances implicit learning, but reduces explicit motor learning. New @biorxivpreprint: tinyurl.com/4nw3snwb Amazing work led by Elizabeth Cisneros! S. Karny, @ivrylab @BerkeleyPsych @cmupsych @cmuneurosci

In a series of experiments involving over 400 human participants, we found that motor adaptation was reduced by symbolic compared to sensory feedback. tinyurl.com/474w8crk 🧵 @yifeichen2023 @sabrinabram @ivrylab

In a new preprint, @ivryrich and I dive into the mechanism underlying attenuation upon relearning in sensorimotor adaptation. TLDR: Interference. But you should read - there is a surprising twist 🙂... biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Details 👇 1/13

Question: Does the relevance of visual feedback influence how we subconsciously correct for errors in our movement? Answer: Yes! In our paper in @JOCN_Journal, we showed that *implicit* motor adaptation is modulated by the relevance of visual feedback. shorturl.at/jnoGM

Tianhe has done great work on this project! It’s definitely worth taking a look. Funny to think it all started from checking the calibration of our different visuomotor reaching rigs…

Where does the motor bias originate? In this new preprint with @tsay_jonathan @rmhead @ivrylab, we show motor biases arise from the transformation of eye-centered visual information (where is the target) into hand-centric proprioceptive space during motor planning.

Matthew is definitely a talent to keep your eye on.
🥳 Congrats to Dr. Matthew Warburton @m_warb, who passed his viva last Friday with no corrections and a recommendation of research excellence! ⭐️ Matthew will continue working with CAER as a researcher, with plans for an academic career. Well done, Matthew! 👏

Check out this preprint from @gandrewgabriel. Multi-day skill learning and generalization of continuous cursor control from a redundant EMG interface mapping. The timing and shape of idioscyncratic muscle contractions are refined from feedback, then reused in different contexts.

Very cool to see the TurboTyping arcade machine in the wild! This was once just a dream of ours that @DrEmWilliams made a reality!
This Sunday I'm back at @EurekaMuseum, this time with my own research! ⌨️🕹 Young families can test their tapping and typing skills with #TurboTyping, and I'll be talking about my career as an Experimental Psychology Researcher for @WomenScienceDay 🤩👩‍🔬

I love @ScienceWeekUK! #BSW19 was the sixth year I've taken part, and the first representing @ICON_UoL/@LeedsPsyc. It was a total blast! We introduced hundreds of kids to #VR and collected loads of data with our baseball task. Great day w Emily S and Matthew W, #SciComm buddies!
