To find out, in this study conducted at CIMCYC, we asked a group of trained cyclists to perform a task while pedaling- sometimes at an easy pace, other times at a very high intensity. The task was simple but demanding: participants had to focus on certain stimuli and ignore others. It's a way to test the flexibility of our brain and its ability to filter out distractions and stay focused on what matters.

Leiden University students explore interdisciplinary research in cognitive neuroscience during their visit to CIMCYC

we are pleased to announce our next Time-resolved Neuroimaging (EEG+) session which will be held by David López-García, who is going to talk about The MVPAlab Toolbox, a tool for multivariate analysis of EEG data. Designed with an intuitive graphical interface, MVPAlab allows both inexperienced and experienced users to perform complex analyses based on machine learning techniques, such as temporal decoding.

The Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center (CIMCYC) at the University of Granada is thrilled to announce a five-day Summer School focused on the cutting-edge research surrounding the characterization and intervention of excess weight. This intensive program offers a unique opportunity for young researchers in cognitive neuroscience to engage with leading academics in the field.

The Master in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience invites to the CIMCYC Talks “Anthropomorphization - The psychological effects of robots that appear human”, with Dr. Roy de Kleijn, researcher at the University of Leiden

Recent research published in Political Psychology by researchers from CIMCYC (University of Granada) and a researcher from the University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli” (Italy) explores this question. Through three studies with more than 2,400 participants in Spain and Italy, the team discovered that beliefs about social mobility play a key role in attitudes towards wealth redistribution.

Why do surveys sometimes not reflect the reality shown by official statistics regarding gender asymmetry in partner violence? A new study conducted at the CIMCYC of the University of Granada sheds light on this question.

A high-risk pregnancy can become a highly stressful situation as it combines the adaptation required for a woman to be pregnant with a significant process of uncertainty and concern for her health and that of her baby.

We are pleased to announce our next AI, Mind and Brain session where we will be discussing the paper"Getting aligned on representational alignment".

In the study conducted by Óscar Cervilla, Ana Álvarez-Muelas, Lola Jimeno Fernández, and Juan Carlos Sierra, members of CIMCYC Lab Sex, published in Sexuality & Culture, the question is raised whether the association between desire and sexual satisfaction might differ depending on the type of adherence to the sexual double standard.
