Do you live in #Seattle? Have some free time to help out with #research? We are recruiting #adults who #stutter and those who do not for a wide variety of research studies at @UW! Shoot us an email at [email protected] for more info! #UW #UniversityOfWashington #UDub #Huskies
Advertisement to recruit research participants. The title at the top says "UW Stuttering Lab: Participate in Research!". The ad continues to say that typical speakers and individuals who stutter are needed for a variety of speech studies. Eligibility criteria: 18+ years old, native English speaker, and no history of other neurological or speech-language disorders Compensation: $20/hr, street parking reimbursement, free hearing screening. A cute graphic at the bottom says "Contact us!" with instructions to send a quick email to MaxLab@uw.edu for more information.

Great opportunity! Paul’s a wonderful supervisor and mentor. The sensorimotor superlab is also a top place to study motor control, with fantastic colleagues and scientists. If you want to study motor control using computational & behavioural tools this is a great place.

Our new paper out in @ExpBrainRes investigating how hand selection may be biased to the dominant arm. We used a 2D VR environment to quantify reaching frequency, reach performance, and reaction time for both the dominant and non-dominant arms. [1/4]

Deciding which hand to reach with delays reaction time…but not equally for both hands. Selecting the non-dominant hand is sig. slower than selecting the dominant hand (regardless of reach performance) #openaccess rdcu.be/cVCk4 #handedness #motorcontrol @brookedex
