We are studying how specific dance training impacts how people watch/experience dance performances - we invite you to participate! Please see below, and follow this link if you are interested: redcap.psych.columbia.edu/su…
On a pink background, a cartoon brain with legs in ballet shoes stands en pointe. Text reads: "The dancer's brain has been ignored for too long. Help us change that! Have 20 minutes? Researchers at Columbia University's DAN Lab are looking for dancers ages 18-40 to help us learn about the ability to analyze dance movements. What will you do? You will fill out some surveys. You will watch and respond to dance videos. Questions? Reach out to us at 212-851-0229 or devaffneurolab@columbia.edu." In the bottom right corner is a stamp of approval from the Columbia University IRB.

I’m at #SfN23 with some *brand new* infant movie-watching fMRI data! We ask: Does the developing visual system “prefer” more realistic stimuli, or simplified/exaggerated information? How does this impact decoding of (lion) faces? Come by SS9 tomorrow (Tuesday) from 1-5pm! 🦁👑
