1 week until #VSS2024. I’m going to be there Friday to Monday repping the National Science Foundation. Happy to meet with any and all vision scientists - especially early career folks and folks from non R1 institutions to demystify the NSF. Please reach out to find a time!
She’s here!! Big day around here. #UNLresearch #UNLpsych

Ever the impractical optimist, an auspicious moment to learn about writing winning grant proposals for sure 😂

Huge thanks to @MechNeuroLab for hosting me and teaching me all the latest and greatest. Also extra delighted to make it into this week’s post-lab-meeting-elevator-selfie! Until next time…

Always enjoy the excellent and interesting work that comes out of the Paller lab. Great opportunity here to be part of it!
Postdoc opening in my lab at Northwestern (kenpaller.com) for new studies of sleep, to include studies of advanced contemplative practices and other ways to enhance benefits of sleep for health and psychological well-being. Inquiries to [email protected]
Also my favorite (not a secret)
If you are eligible, put your hat in the ring for a travel award for CNS 2025 (don't tell anyone, but it's my favorite meeting of the year!).
Just flipped the page of an infrequently used notepad and found this surprise tidbit of motivation (in my own handwriting…). It’s a whole academic vibe today!

Legend.
In the 1950s Brenda Milner changed the course of 🧠brain science by identifying the specific brain region crucial to memory formation and by identifying multiple memory systems. Today we celebrate her 106th! Happy Birthday Brenda Milner!🎂🎉 mcgill.ca/x/wYY

In a box in my basement I just uncovered this piece of #NotreDame nostalgia filled with compact disc gold! My kids are so lucky that Subaru still believes in CD players.

Not me, but maybe someone?
Has anyone taught a Psychology of Language course and would be willing to share their materials, or know of some open access materials? I'm putting lectures together and any help is appreciated. :)
Ah commencement, when we all sit outside in robes meant to keep medieval monks warm on the hottest day of the year while someone reads the phonebook
Definitely check this one out!
