Our latest paper is no longer behind a paywall! We show that visual bias in working memory toward interference can be moderated by motor control 🧠. Check it out!

#PuG crowd: interested in cognitive control? Come to our symposium “Cognitive Control: Domain-General, Domain-Specific, or Neither?” happening on Friday at 2 pm (room: HS07). We have a fantastic line-up: @annalschubert.bsky.social, Linda Bräutigam, @sarahdepue.bsky.social, Daxun Zhu, and myself. 👇
Tomorrow morning at 11am I'll be presenting my talk at #VSS2026 titled "Semantic understanding, not just coherent object structure, strengthens visual working memory"! (Talk Room 2) See you there!
I finally got a tour of the legendary "Stanford Prison Experiment", courtesy of @robbwiller.bsky.social
Our reanalysis of the study changed our understanding of the social psychology involved in the Prison Experiment.
We wrote about it in our newsletter: powerofusnewsletter.com/p/debunking-...
Now out in @cognitionjournal.bsky.social ! We show that the persistence of memory biases across retrieval episodes may critically depend on attention to inducer stimuli during initial interference. w/ @keisukefukuda.bsky.social

New preprint (doi.org/10.64898/202...) shows that where you look next is an economic decision.
Saccades trade off effort-costs (measured via pupil) against monetary rewards.
1) By default, participants have strong saccade direction preferences (e.g., cardinal over diagonal, up over down)

Now out in Current Opinion in Neurobiology! We propose that biases in perception & memory emerge naturally from an adaptive, hierarchical human learning system. w/ @timbrady.bsky.social + sky-less et al.

#VSS2026 attendees make sure to stop by my poster today in the afternoon poster session in the Banyan Breezeway. I will present a series of experiments, in which we investigated attentional selection in long-term memory.
Gating processes that regulate sensory input into visual working memory (WM) and the execution of planned actions share neural mechanisms, suggesting a mutual interaction. In a preregistered study (Op...

Humans constantly compare their visual memories with similar visual inputs to modify their behavior adaptively. However, basic and applied studies sug…
