Now out in Nature Neuroscience: "Fixation duration on natural scenes is explained by memory encoding not processing demand".

Our eyes don't linger because recognition is hard; they linger to remember. Let me take you on a quick tour. š§µ
By combining magnetoencephalography and eye tracking, this study sheds light on why people fixate on some parts of natural scenes longer than others. Rather than visual complexity, fixation durations ...

Amazing memories from #PuG2026! š§
Wonderful seeing the team: Charlotte Grosse Wiesmann (3rd from left), @heidrunschultz.bsky.social @tobiashopf.bsky.social & Anna-Lena Tebbe. Great conference featuring Charlotte & Heidrun's symposium and posters by Tobias Hopf & Lea Haerms. Thanks for stopping by! š

Which factors are more vs. less important in predicting memory?
We systematically investigated the contributions of image memorability, valence, arousal, attention, and test delay.
Image memorability was the strongest predictor of memory.
Proud of this work led by @hartwakeland.bsky.social!
Excited for #OHBM2026 in Bordeaux!
I'm presenting at an oral session on arcuate fascicle maturation in 1-year-olds (Monday, June 15 at 4:45 pm) and a poster (Monday, June 15 at 12:30 & Tuesday, June 16 at 12:30).
Come say hi, happy to chat about infant brain development!
