Auditory CognitionJonas and the lab are happy and thankful to announce a new research project funded by Sivantos, Erlangen. We are looking very much forward to a renewed collaboration with the audiological science team around Ronny Hannemann, beginning in October 2019.
The three-year project will look into the psychological and neurobiological challenges of attending and ignoring for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners in complex acoustic scenes.
Deadline March 15, 2019!
Yet another Post-Doc slot to fill: COME WORK WITH US. I would love to hear from you. (English version to come) @obleserlab https://t.co/5Twiec7kLe

Should you be interested in working with us more generally/supported by other funds/at a later stage, please be in touch as well.
Happy and enormously honoured to start my tenure as a @JNeuroscience reviewing editor! https://t.co/yMNOht4Py9

After three very interesting and instructive years as a handling editor for Neuroimage, I have just accepted an invitation to join my favourite journal, the classic Journal of Neuroscience, as what they call “Reviewing editor” (i.e., handling or action editor). Looking forward to some exciting science on our desks there!
The scientific publishing field is changing fast, and I am particularly happy for the opportunity to help foster a successful, society-run journal like The Journal of Neuroscience in the three upcoming years.

I am hiring: Come do a 4‑y Postdoc with us in Lübeck at the @ObleserLab! Modellers and Causal-inference-folks should feel especially targeted. We have ample data to play with (and a few undergrads to teach stats to now and then). https://t.co/jtH9HHR4uP Please RT wi(l)d(e)ly.

The official German-language job advert is also to be found here.
Get in touch with Jonas or the other lab members if vaguely interested.
During the upcoming meeting of “Psychology and the Brain 2018”, PhD student Leo Waschke will be hosting a symposium on states and traits of neural activity and their functional relevance for perception and ageing. Together with Linda Geerligs (Donders Institute, NL), Marieke Schölvinck (ESI, Frankfurt) and Niels Kloosterman (MPIB, Berlin) he will be addressing fluctuations in brain activity on a host of timescales from milliseconds to minutes. We are looking forward to meeting you in Giessen.
Postdoc position in the Obleser lab, in the ERC-funded project “Audadapt” — deadline for applications very soon! (Nov 30 2017). Check out all applications details here!
Will be at the Society for Neuroscience Meeting next week in DC? Come find us in the Wednesday afternoon session with a bunch of (we think) very cool attention-related posters (Poster boards UU42–UU46):
804.06. Auditory attention and predictive processing co-modulate speech comprehension in middle-aged adults
*S. TUNE, M. WÖSTMANN, J. OBLESER;
804.05. Implicit temporal predictability enhances auditory pitch-discrimination sensitivity
*S. K. HERBST, M. PLÖCHL, A. HERRMANN, J. OBLESER;
804.09. Are visual and auditory detection performance driven by a supramodal attentional rhythm?
*M. PLOECHL, S. KASTNER, I. C. FIEBELKORN, J. OBLESER;
804.08. Spatio-temporal expectations exert differential effects on visual and auditory discrimination
*A. WILSCH, J. OBLESER, C. E. SCHROEDER, C. S. HERRMANN, S. HAEGENS
804.07. Transcranial 10-Hz stimulation but also eye closure modulate auditory attention
*M. WÖSTMANN, L.-M. SCHMITT, J. VOSSKUHL, C. S. HERRMANN, J. OBLESER
Come and see our very first auditory cognition newsletter. From now on we want to present impressions of our latest work and results twice a year. In the interview section you also have the chance to learn more about our members.
Please note: As the newsletter also reaches our participants it is written in german.
