07-04-2022 - Kami Koldewyn Seminar
Kami Koldewyn in her talk “Social Interactions in the Social Brain” explored the role of various structures in the “social brain” across development. She showed the posterior superior temporal sulcus as a key region for processing dynamic social interactions, but other regions such as the extrastriate body area (EBA) also show sensitivity to specifically interactive information, depending on stimulus content and context.
29-03-2022 - New paper from the Ape Social Mind Lab
A new paper from the Ape Social Mind Lab with ISC CNRS Affiliation was published in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society regarding the association between the oxytocinergic system and cooperative behaviors in wild chimpanzees. This system provides the basis of parochial cooperation and suggests that the roots of human parochial altruism exist in chimpanzees.

18-02-2022 - A new paper from the Laboratory of Cognitive Neuropsychology and Development was published in PNAS regarding visual categorization in infancy
They investigated, using eye-tracking, the development of visual categorization of animate and inanimate objects. In their visual exploration of objects, infants between 4 and 10 months seem to be guided by object salience, according to the animate–inanimate distinction. Then, through their second year of life, they organize their visual exploration based on biologically relevant categories.

14-02-2022 - How do infants acquire thought (consciousness?) ?
A new paper from the BabyLab was published on Current Biology. They studied the attentional blink phenomenon in infants, children, and adult participants, using eye-tracking to address how acceleration in information processing affects information processes that contribute to perceptual awareness. The results represent a major advance in our understanding of infant thinking and how it gradually transforms into adult thinking.
