Had an absolute BLAST sharing my research (and catching some ☀️) at this year’s Vision Sciences Society Conference in St. Pete Beach, FL! As always, so grateful to my PI @AlonHafri for all his guidance and support! #VSS2026 #👁️🌴🔄💃🏻🌊

Last Friday, I had the privilege of sharing some of my research at the University of Delaware Cognitive Science Conference. 'Twas fun to say the least! Already looking forward to next year's conference. 🧠👁️🤖

Our @BBSJournal target article has been accepted: "Core Perception": Re-imagining Precocious Reasoning as Sophisticated Perceiving With @AlonHafri , Véronique Izard, @chazfirestone & @stricklandbrent Read it here: doi.org/10.1017/S01405… A short thread [1/5]👇

@AlexFischbach_ I certainly will! 🙂

@D_Lopiccolo Thank you Dominique 🙂 I hope you're doing well! Let me know if you're ever in the Boston area!

The NeuroPRISM Lab 🧠 is in the news! The article touches on the Effect Size Explorer, the Power Calculator, and my own Local CSF Correction Pipeline — a scalable preprocessing pipeline for correcting local physiological noise in the subcortex. news.northeastern.edu/2025/09/02/nor…

@BodhiCogSci Thanks, Bodhi!

Brilliant colleagues doing brilliant science communication and outreach!

In honor of Neurohackademy 2025 🧠 starting in about 1 week, here's a little interview I did with Dr. Theresa Cheng at @FluxSociety on my experience (among other super awesome humans!): buzzsprout.com/2024695/episod…

@alirkarami @EliCastaldi @ev_eger Very exciting! Looking forward to give this a close read.

i think our arguments are more like precision instruments but ok fine i will accept "sledgehammer" (@DorsaAmir @anilkseth @guardian)

Hot off the presses! New work--led by @vayzenberg90--showing the robustness of children's object recognition and how they surpass state-of-the-art ANNs science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

🎈 Out now: 🎈 "The capacity limits of moving objects in the imagination" (by Balaban & me) of interest to people thinking about the imagination, intuitive physics, mental simulation, capacity limits, and more nature.com/articles/s4146…

Great opportunity! 🧠

@carolinemyers0 Same!! We gotta get the Delaware Crew and Hopkins Crew together again soon 😊

@D_Lopiccolo imy already🥺🥺

#VSS2025 was extremely fun and invigorating! Grateful to @AlonHafri and many of you who stopped by our poster! More to come 🔵🔄🟠 #representationalmomentum #visionscience #geometricthinking

Exciting new preprint from the lab, led by an amazing student, @ckelseyhan!

Traveling to @VSSMtg today to present work with the superb ✨ @AlonHafri on representational momentum 🔄 for spatial scaling 🟠! Catch me at 🌴Banyan Breezeway, this Saturday, morning sesh ☀️ #VSS25 #VisualMemory #Objects #Features #PosterSession

Thrilled to announce the line-up for *phiVis: Philosophy of Vision Science Workshop* (our 5th!) @VSSMtg: - Gabe Greenberg (UCLA), w/ comments from Jennifer Groh (Duke) - Jake Beck (York), w/ Darko Odic (UBC) - Kathleen Akins (SFU), w/ Rosa Lafer-Souza phivis.org

@MegBotello Congrats, Meg 🥳

Grateful to share that my first, first-authored manuscript has been published! Thanks to my advisors & community❤️It feels surreal to have added a very small piece to the field that I care about so much. Check out my highlights and read more about it here: journals.uchicago.edu/eprint/KVUY6SP…
