🌟 We’re delighted to announce Dr Sage Boettcher (@ox.ac.uk) as the Rising Star: Early Group Leader winner at the #WiNUKAwards2025!
Sage leads the Dynamic Cognition Lab, studying how attention and memory interact to guide behaviour. A dedicated mentor, teacher, and advocate for inclusive science.
So, if you’ve ever worried about participant attention, uncontrolled environments, noisy online data, it might be time to think about if online VR is an option for your study.
Online participants in VR are visually isolated, not multitasking on another tab and, not distracted by their environment
An increasing number of off-the-shelf systems also have eye trackers included.
We validated the approach by running a fairly complex VR task remotely. BUT you don’t actually need to go “full VR” to benefit from VR. You can run your existing 2D tasks inside a headset.
Congrats, Levi! We are proud to have the recipient of the Open OxCIN Award (open.oxcin.ox.ac.uk/pages/open-s...) in our team ❤️
@dynacog-lab.bsky.social and @abclab.bsky.social are on the road next week
Online VR gives you something online research usually lacks: experimental control over the participant’s visual world (doi.org/10.1038/s441...).
Our new tutorial for converting lab-based VR studies into remote deployments is out! link.springer.com/article/10.3... i
