Nov 2024- Lab Reunion during Psychonomic Society Meeting in NYC! CAMlab is so proud that Matt and Mahsa both presented their first posters at the OPAM conference- everything went great! It was nice to celebrate with Matthieu that evening and to enjoy each other's company (although we were all tired!!).
Summer 2024- Matthieu Chidharom and I got an 'Editor's Choice' selection for our JEP:HPP paper in August 2024! And, I was so happy to find that our collaborative terminology paper, headed by Heinrich Liesefeld and Dominique Lamy was selected as AP&P's paper of the year! What a great summer:)
July 2023- Matthieu will be leaving us soon for a post-doc position with Ed Vogel & Monica Rosenberg at University of Chicago- so we went out to celebrate in the best Bethlehem style we could muster at Zest Restaurant! Thank you Matthieu
May 2023- Another great year at VSS! Great feedback from posters from Matthieu Chidharom, Greta Manini, and Ziyao Zhang! Thanks for letting me join in on the presentations- I just love the science rush! Loved our dinner on the beach, with Brad Stillwell from the Gaspelin Lab joining!
May 2023- Thanks to all the folks who contributed to the lab this year (including those not pictured)! We had a very productive year, and it was a great team!
March 2023- Matthieu Chidharom and I were both celebrated for mentoring today by Mahsa Zafarmand. Thank you Matthieu for all you do to make the lab successful and help the lab run smoothly! Matthieu is clearly ready to become PI of his own lab... but I will miss him when he goes! And thank you Mahsa for nominating both of us for this award!
March 2023- My postdoc, Matthieu Chidharom, and I got a paper accepted at the Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, "Neurophysiological Measures of Proactive and Reactive Control in Negative Template Use"! Great accomplishment for excellent work, Matthieu!
December 2022/January 2023- Found out that our article 'Explicit Goals Unlock Implicit Spatial Statistical Learning' was accepted at JEP: General. Even better, the fabulous Ziyao Zhang was visiting friends in the Lehigh Valley in early January so I was able to see him and go out to lunch to celebrate! 🎊
I miss having Ziyao in the lab, but I was so glad to learn about all the cool work he is doing during his PhD at UT Austin.
Congrats, Ziyao, on a first-authored paper at JEP: General! I hope this will be one of many across your career:)
(Note: photo from July 2021, before Ziyao left Lehigh- forgot to get a pic of our lunch! It's not this sunny in January in Pennsylvania!)
November 2022- PSYCHONOMICS 2022!! Wonderful Lab Dinner with Greta Manini (visiting from Universidad de Grenada), Mattheiu Chidharom (CAMlab postdoc) and the Gaspelin Lab. Our weekly Gaspelin-CAM lab journal club is fun- but it was more fun to hang out in person! Shout out to Travis for securing the coveted dinner reservation! (Please note creepy perambulating food mural in the background.)
It was so great to see some exciting new research, and for Matthieu to share his research at an OPAM poster and for me to share mine at a Psychonomics Talk!
Fellow scientists, I missed you, and I was so glad to see you again! ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
November 2022- New review paper out at Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics. Please enjoy and tell me what else I should be thinking about! https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13414-022-02590-4
October 2022- Greta Manini (visiting from Universidad de Grenada) gave a fantastic talk to BOTH our Cognitive Area Meeting (CLANG) and the Gaspelin Lab. Some feedback Greta received: "Very programmatic set of research." "The visuals are great!" Wonderful job, Greta!
