Latest post-bac opportunities and a new class
Hi all,
There are still new post-bac opportunities for those of you looking; new listings can be found near the top of the file, starting with “Posted 4/19/23”, as well as the additional newsletter that I get from another source. Hope you are finding these helpful!
Also, there is a new course being offered by Pitzer that will count toward the cognition and the arts distribution requirement in the Pomona cog sci major; it may possibly count toward the seminar requirement as well, but I won’t know that until a full syllabus is available for my review, so I’ll keep you posted (although note that if approved, you would have to decide whether you want it to count as the distribution requirement or the seminar requirement – it can’t fulfill both) – Professor Abrams

Talk: “Language, Attention and Cognitive Control: Insights from Electrophysiology” 9/16, 11 AM
Talk: “Language, Attention and Cognitive Control: Insights from Electrophysiology” by Dr. Megan Boudewyn, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
Friday, 9/16/22, 11:00 AM, Edmunds 114. Lunch to follow!
Abstract: “Human language is an extraordinary cognitive capacity that is supported, in part, by “other” cognitive functions like attention and cognitive control. In this talk I will focus on research examining how changes in attentional state and cognitive control engagement impact language comprehension. For example, attention lapses, or momentary shifts of attention away from the task at hand, are a ubiquitous feature of human cognition, but such lapses have consequences for comprehension. I will discuss a set of studies in which electrophysiology (EEG) is used to track the influence of attentional state on language comprehension, as well as recent work investigating how the language system engages cognitive control functions during comprehension. ”
