For anyone interested in face perception within / between developmental disorders: You, or someone you know, might be interested in the following seminar information, therefore please distribute this information as widely as possible Thanks Debbie Seminar Title: Developmental Disorders: co-morbidity, subgroups and variability On Friday 29th June 2012 there is a one day workshop which discusses co-morbidity, variability and sub-groups within neurodevelopmental disorders being hosted at Kingston University. This workshop is part of a seminar series entitled 'Neuro-developmental disorders: Exploring sensitive methods of assessment across development' which explores recent findings in neurodevelopmental disorders, with a particular focus on 1) the new research tools and methods used, 2) discussion of the wider applicability of these new tools and methods across different neurodevelopmental disorders, 3) identifying future challenges or controversies when studying neurodevelopmental disorders using a developmental approach. The seminar series hopes to bring together specialists and established researchers as well as post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers and early career researchers in neurodevelopmental disorders. The series is sponsored by the British Psychological Society and the Williams syndrome Foundation UK and is being organised by Dr Jo van Herwegen, Dr Emily Farran and Dr Debbie Riby. In total three seminars will be held around the UK between June 2012 and April 2013.

time course of adaptation

by Peter Hancock

Dear all, over the years I have tried various face adaptation experiments, with mostly incoherent results, and watched puzzled as everyone else publishes neat little findings. I began to suspect strong temporal effects and we have finally managed to publish some results demonstrating this with adaptation to antifaces: almost all the effect derives from the first few trials; it is as if whatever is adapting gets 'tired' after that. It may be that others have picked up on this already but I figured it might be useful to draw attention to the finding in case there are those who, like me, are baffled by otherwise strange results. http://www.frontiersin.org/perception_science/10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00019/abst… Peter Peter Hancock Professor, Deputy Head of Psychology, School of Natural Sciences University of Stirling FK9 4LA, UK phone 01786 467675 fax 01786 467641 http://www.psychology.stir.ac.uk/staff/phancock -- The Sunday Times Scottish University of the Year 2009/2010 The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159.

FW: NCPW13 announcement

by Peter Hancock

I'm forwarding this to face research list in the hope that there may be one or two modellers out there who would be interested. Peter From: Julien Mayor [mailto:Julien.Mayor@unige.ch] Sent: 09 February 2012 09:32 To: Julien.Mayor(a)unige.ch Subject: NCPW13 announcement Dear colleague, We cordially invite you to participate in the Thirtienth Neural Computation and Psychology Workshop (NCPW13) to be held in San Sebastian (Spain) from July 12-14, 2012: http://www.bcbl.eu/events/ncpw13 This well-established and lively workshop aims at bringing together researchers from different disciplines such as artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computer science, neurobiology, philosophy and psychology to discuss their work on models of cognitive processes. Previous themes have encompassed categorisation, language, memory, development, action. There will be no specific theme, but papers must be about emergent models -- frequently, but not necessarily -- of the connectionist/neural network kind, applied to cognition. These workshops have always been characterised by their limited size, high quality papers, the absence of parallel talk sessions, and a schedule that is explicitly designed to encourage interaction among the researchers present in an informal setting. Furthermore, this workshop will feature a unique set of invited speakers: * Mark Seidenberg. University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA. * Jeffrey Elman. University of California, San Diego. USA. * Randall C. O'Reilly. University of Colorado. USA. * Kim Plunkett. University of Oxford, UK. Important dates to remember: Abstract deadline: March 31st, 2012 Notification of abstract acceptance: May 1st, 2012 Early registration deadline: June 1st, 2012 Online registration deadline: July 1st, 2012 Conference dates: July 12 - 14, 2012 Looking forward to your participation, Julien Mayor --- Julien Mayor University of Geneva 40 Bd Pont d'Arve 1205 Genève Tel: +41 (0)22 3798150 http://www.unige.ch/fapse/psycholinguistique/model.html [cid:98DA99A3-6426-4649-926E-BBB35EDB2F6F@unige.ch] -- The Sunday Times Scottish University of the Year 2009/2010 The University of Stirling is a charity registered in Scotland, number SC 011159.
