Very happy to share that our INNERSPEECH project has been funded by the #ANR!

We'll investigate the cognitive and neural bases of inner speech diversity and build a neurocomputational model of how it emerges during development. One PhD and one postdoc position will open soon; stay tuned!

Perceptual learning without feedback is accompanied with systematic changes in confidence processing
Abstract. Perceptual learning can occur without external feedback, raising questions about what internal signals might guide this learning. Here, we test t
