We have a new visiting research intern!

Yuanqi (Phin) Gu, who is a MA student at the Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, will stay at CAPLAB for 6 months to investigate the neural dynamics underlying attention flexibility.

Welcome to Ghent!

We have a new paper out!

Max van Migem, Daniele Marinazzo and Gilles Pourtois have just published a paper on the dissociable effects of attention and prediction on visual processing, have a read!

We have a new research intern, Pauline Maelfait!

Durng her internship, she will examine how motivational factors influence attention during attention-focused tasks, combining behavioural and EEG methods.

It has been our real pleasure to host Kamela Cenka at CAPLAB. We enjoyed her smile, curiosity and trust in mirror neurons, neuroplasticity and DMN 😉 We hope that our paths will soon cross again. Meanwhile, we wish Kamela all the best for what comes next, including a PhD defence in 2026 in Bologna!

We have a new Doctor and a new publication! 🥳

Meet Dr. Xue, who is also a co-author of 'Neither exogenous, nor endogenous: Evidence for a distinct role of negative emotion during attentional control' paper just published in PLoS One: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0319888

All the best, Juan, for your private and professional future!

‼️ On September 25th, Xiaojuan (Juan) Xue will be defending the PhD thesis entitled 'Emotional attention revisited: modulatory effects of value, goal, and salience on the capture of attention by negative emotion' ‼️

Good luck, Juan! :-)
