    Differential temporal dynamics during visual imagery and perception

    Nadine Dijkstra, Pim Mostert ... Marcel AJ van Gerven
    In contrast to perception, during visual imagery, there are no clear time-locked processing stages and imagery specifically overlaps with perceptual processing around 160 ms after stimulus onset and from 300 ms onwards.
  5. Research Culture: Using reflective practice to support PhD students in the biosciences

    Jennifer Tullet, Jennifer Leigh ... Emma Hargreaves
    Reflective practice can help postgraduate students to navigate work environments, deal with difficult supervisory relationships, and improve their work-life balance.
