After five years in the US 🇺🇸, I'll soon be returning to my hometown of Strasbourg, where I'll join INSERM as a tenure-track Junior Group Leader and launch the MInD (Motivation, Inattention & Distraction) Research Group. 🇫🇷🇪🇺 Two graduate positions available: matthieuchidharom.wixsite.com/mind

Pumped to share our latest work! Here, we peeked under the hood of fMRI-based predictive models to ask whether models of sustained attention and autism symptoms rely on overlapping functional connections. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.6... 1/2

Feature overlap in transdiagnostic connectome-based models of sustained attention and autism symptoms

Sustained attention is an important neurobiological process. Difficulties with attention play a key role in neurodevelopmental disorders, such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and au...

The Naturalistic Cognitive Computational Neuroscience Lab is launching at UT Austin and is looking for founding members at all levels, including lab manager, PhD students, and postdocs! #NeuroJobs We will study human brain🧠 and memory & attention, using fMRI and modeling. thesonglab.github.io

🎊New Lab Alert! I'll be starting at the 🧡University of Texas at Austin🧡 this August! More info to come. thesonglab.github.io I send my deep gratitude to my mentors, Monica @monicarosenb.bsky.social, YC @ycleong.bsky.social, ShiNung @shinung.bsky.social & Zach @zreagh.bsky.social, for everything.

I finally got around to setting up a lab website! Have a look: the-steel-lab.github.io Just in time to start the new semester.

🧠 Hiring a Research Assistant/Lab Manager! Share widely! 📍 St. Louis | ⏰ Full-time We're launching the How We Learn Lab @WashU, studying attention, learning & memory interactions. Perfect for anyone interested in dev cog neuro who wants hands-on experience before grad school. deckerlab.com

Monica Rosenberg has been interested in the brain-mind interface before she even knew it was possible to study it professionally. For her innovative research on attention, she is a co-recipient of the #CNS2026 Young Investigator Award. Read a new Q&A with her: www.cogneurosociety.org/threading-to...

Threading Together Attention Across Human Cognition

CNS 2026 awardee Monica Rosenberg researches attention, including developing brain-based predictive models to gain insights into cognition.

New preprint! 🧠 Our mind wanders at rest. By periodically probing ongoing thoughts during resting-state fMRI, we show these thoughts are reflected in brain network dynamics and contribute to pervasive links between functional brain architecture and everyday behavior (1/10). doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Ongoing thoughts at rest reflect functional brain organization and behavior

Resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC)-brain connectivity observed when people rest with no external tasks-predicts individual differences in behavior. Yet, rest is not idle; it involves streams...

Pharmacological manipulations offer unique, powerful & imo underutilized ways to test the sensitivity & specificity of brain-based biomarkers of behavior. New from an amazing team led by @lyulouisa.bsky.social & @annacorriveau.bsky.social
