We will be having PhD and Postdoctoral positions available under ERC funding to explore how contextual semantic information changes object representations. In this part of the project we will use behavioral manipulations, fMRI and EEG to track representational change in (neural) space and time. See more below.
The official call will be open soon and we will post here more information.
What is this project about?
What is this project about?
CONNECTS aims to resolve paradoxes in the field of semantic congruity by developing a unified framework for understanding how our brains use stored knowledge to process and remember information. Specifically, the project will explore the dual roles of semantic information in maximizing efficiency through congruent information and in highlighting novelty via incongruency.
The project involves a multi-method approach, integrating behavioral, neural (EEG and fMRI), and computational modeling techniques (including deep neural networks). This research will address key questions such as how semantic information is used by the brain and whether these mechanisms are consistent across cognitive processes that unfold over different timescales.
