SUMMARY:Invite Your Expert: Integrating Neuroscience\, Neuroimaging and Neu
 rotechnology to enrich models of development and learning
DESCRIPTION:Organized by PhD student Anouk Irina Glättli\\r\\n3N: Integrat
 ing Neuroscience\, Neuroimaging and Neurotechnology to enrich models of de
 velopment and learning\\r\\nSpeaker: Prof. Dr. Paul Matusz\, Associate Pro
 fessor at HES-So Valais-Wallis\\r\\nPoster [t3://file?uid=217]\\r\\nRegist
 ration [https://forms.gle/3MGsW5c2P5fGquSU9] (Registration deadline: Wed\,
  13th of May 2026)\\r\\nRequest online participation [mailto:anouk.glaettl
 i@unibas.ch]\\r\\nDescription: \\r\\nCurrently\, it is almost a truism to
  say that selective attention is crucial for goal-directed behaviour. It a
 llows us to recognise objects and (re)acquire skills and knowledge. Howeve
 r\, neurocognitive models of selective attention and its development\, and
  of learning are based on lab studies using typically unisensory (visual\,
  auditory) stimuli. This contrasts with the multisensory nature of everyda
 y environments (e.g.\, classroom\, high-street) and the brain’s mirrorin
 g propensity for integrating multisensory information and the non-linear e
 ffects of the latter on brain and cognition. \\r\\nProf. Matusz will disc
 uss research\, his own and of others\, showing how the traditional laborat
 ory and the neuroscientific research “in the wild” can be bridged by a
 n approach that integrates rigorous behavioural measures\, gauging the inf
 ormation rich nature EEG through multivariate analyses and advances in neu
 rotechnology (Matusz et al. 2019 JOCN). He will discuss how studying selec
 tive attention in multisensory settings can shed light on the dynamic\, re
 ciprocal development of cognitive-attentional and (multi-)sensory skills i
 n service of learning. He will also demonstrate how EEG neuroimaging can h
 elp identify the elusive neuro-cognitive mechanisms of developing attentio
 nal processes in naturalistic settings. Finally\, he will discuss how the 
 careful\, grounded in basic and clinical science\, use of such neurotechno
 logies like virtual/mixed reality\, can offer important new insights into 
 the understanding of the sensory and neurodevelopmental conditions\, their
  detection\, diagnosis and care\, as well as for a more holistic perspecti
 ve on development\, integrating facets of mental/physical health and educa
 tion.
