Neuronal Oscillations group members will lead a symposium on using Rapid Invisible Frequency Tagging (RIFT) for insights into attention and cross-modal integration. RIFT is a powerful novel tool for tagging sensory processing, making it a great alternative to SSVEPs. The symposium presentations will cover the current use of RIFT by our group members and collaborators in aspects such as speech comprehension, parafoveal processing in natural reading, resolving word boudary ambi

The lecture will take place on Monday, 3rd November 2025 in the Life and Mind Building at 4 pm https://www.stcatz.ox.ac.uk/catz-fellow-inaugural-lecture/

Zhang, Y., Chen, J., Woodman, G.F., Lin, R., Chen, F., Weng, X., Jensen, O., Theeuwes, J., and Wang, B., (in press). Automaticity speeds the retrieval of instances from the human hippocampus. PNAS This paper was created in collaboration with the Benchi Wang Group. Our study explored automatic processing, which involves performing a task with little conscious effort. A good example of this is not remembering how you drove through a set of intersections just a few minutes prior

Wang, L., Frisson, S., Pan, Y. And Jensen, O. (accepted) Fast hierarchical processing of orthographic and semantic parafoveal information during natural reading. Nat Commun We investigated how the brain processes words in the parafovea—just outside the direct line of sight—during reading. Using MEG and eye-tracking, the we found that both orthographic (letter-based) and semantic (meaning-based) information from parafoveal words is processed before the eyes fixate on them. Ort

The OPM-FLUX workshop has come to an end. We thank all participants and instructors for making it an enjoyable and informative event, and we also appreciate St Catz for hosting us and the excellent lunches.

It was a great please to welcome 32 researcher from across the globe to our toolkit course on using OPM-MEG in cognitive and clinical neuroscience. This was done in the context of the FLUX pipeline.
