Help us develop brain-controlled tech for kids with disabilities! Join our study where you will try controlling a computer using your brainwaves, eyes, & facial expressions. Children (8+) & adults can participate! Learn more! 🧠🕹️ bit.ly/40oofh4

On this Blue Monday we revisit this conversation w #UofT prof @uoftkpe @sabi_catz about the myth of Blue Monday, the very real effects of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) & the lifestyle changes to help us deal with it kpe.utoronto.ca/faculty-news…
A huge congrats to each of you for the well-deserved awards!

Implicit motor imagery was influenced by experience in sports & music; explicit imagery may be more influenced by formal training

Juan Soto signed a $765 million 15-year contract with the Mets. Last December, Shohei Ohtani signed a 10-year $700 million contract with the Dodgers. Are star athletes being paid too much?@uoftkpe prof Simon Darnell shares his views in this Q & A. kpe.utoronto.ca/faculty-news…

Great work @jude_bek ! Interesting finding that small unintended moments increase after tDCS of supplementary motor area. Maybe SMA is involved in suppressing over movement during imagery. Read more to find out.
❕New preprint❕with @DrMichaelWXY @DrTimWelsh: tDCS over the supplementary motor area led to an increase in incidental movements during motor imagery ⚡️🧠🤔👆 doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/p3rs…
Thanks @DrMichaelWXY for all your leadership and work on this project. So much good stuff in this paper about movement in AR and VR.
New paper alert 🚨
sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Using visual illusion, we showed that mixed reality technologies, such as VR and AR, alters motor planning and control.
This is the last but most critical piece from a series of three studies from my work with @DrTimWelsh @UofTKPE
Excited to share our new paper on movement in VR and AR led by @DrMichaelWXY ! Many interesting findings. We show movements in VR and AR are more biased by illusions than movements in physical reality. Read to find out why! can01.safelinks.protection.o…
