#JNeurosci: @docdocdunk et al. explored the neural processes for ignoring visual distractions, discovering that, over time, the brain learns to quickly suppress neural activity linked to locations with a high probability of containing a distractor. doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.19…

🚨New preprint alert🚨! This one’s a💥! In it we show that the ‘pinging’ technique can be used to reveal selection history acquired spatial bias in the brain, providing novel evidence of the neural mechanisms underlying history based attentional biases! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
