Spent a week at the #IRTG retreat in Germany. Got to present the results of our latest study in VR and meet some of the other Canadian and German trainees!

And first in-person #CVRConference for me
Three of my trainees got honourable mentions for their poster at the #CVRConference

ICYMI: @MikulaLaura's virtual @VSSmtg poster on intercepting a pong ball with a path that's consistent or not with what you'd expect based on the tilt of the bouncing surface. deniseh.lab.yorku.ca/files/2… People adjust very quickly!

New preprint out! Can you adapt to ball bounce perturbations in a Pong-like game? If so, do you make use of external visual cues to enhance your performance? doi.org/10.1101/2022.02.16.4… @Henrique5Denise @BMtHart 1/5

Our results show quick adaptation to the pong ball dynamics, independently of the visual tilt of the bouncing wall. This outlines prospects for further research on sensorimotor adaptation to external perturbations in more dynamic environments. 4/5

Thank you! Any constructive feedback or discussions to improve our paper are welcome 5/5

Accepted @SciReports paper: “Implicit motor learning within three trials” with @Ruttle_J and @Henrique5Denise. Implicit motor learning is said to be slow, but we found it to be incredibly fast. doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-8… @vistayorku @CentreforVisio1 @YUResearch 1/4

Let's end 2020 on a good note! Our new paper is out in #PLOSONE: Eye-head coordination and dynamic visual scanning as indicators of visuo-cognitive demands in driving simulator dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.…

Shout out to one of the groups I had the chance to mentor during #NeuromatchAcademy Congratulations for all your hard work!
The excitement when you see your project getting featured cannot be described. Thanks @neuromatch for everything. #NeuromatchAcademy Cheers #mirrorneurons group @varad_srivastav @SurajJo80092004 @MINAKSHIGOEL awesome work. Thanks to our TA @mehulr_98 and mentor @MikulaLaura.
