SUMMARY:Eyetracking workshop - Ryszard Auksztulewicz (City University of Hong Kong and Marie Sklodowska-Curie Global Research Fellow)
DESCRIPTION:Location: Department of Linguistics\, 9.27\nDate and time: March 14 at 3PM\nSpeaker: Dr. Ryszard Auksztulewicz\nEye tracking is a powerful method of studying behaviour and brain function. It not only provides direct measurements of eye movements\, blinks\, and gaze position\, but information about pupil size has been used as an indirect index of attention and arousal. This workshop will provide a brief overview of the physiological basis\, signal types\, and analysis methods of eye tracking data. In the practical part of the workshop\, participants will learn how to set up the eye tracker and measure participants’ responses in several example experiments. \n \nSpeaker: \nDr. Ryszard Auksztulewicz is a postdoctoral researcher at City University of Hong Kong and a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Global Research Fellow.  He has previously worked at University of Oxford and University College London. His research interests include the neural mechanisms of attention\, learning and prediction.
