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

I am recruiting a postdoctoral researcher and a PhD student, funded by a new ERC grant. The grant focuses on the role of the hippocampus in visual perception, using 7T fMRI (hippocampal subfields, cortical layers) and MEG+iEEG. The intended start dates for both positions are in early 2027. 🧠🟦 1/3

The properties of personal semantics - Memory & Cognition

Recent cognitive neuroscience research has uncovered some similarities and some differences between general semantic memory (GS; e.g., knowledge about family in general) and personal semantic memory (...

I recently discovered Conventional Comments (conventionalcomments.org) for providing a pseudo-standard set of labels for feedback and just tried it for an article review and it was really helpful to specify issues vs. thoughts vs. suggestions, etc. Hopefully it's helpful for the authors too!

The ending of game 7 feels like a good time to ask for the goverment to increase investment in public mental health care in Canada.

Not every day a statistical text will be described as ⭐️interesting ⭐️but I believe today is the day. Reading the part about change scores.

Frank Harrell@f2harrell.bsky.social · 10mo ago

The extremely problematic use of change scores is so poorly understood by researchers that it’s almost sickening. Most don’t even understand what is needed for the subtraction operator to work. hbiostat.org/bbr/change
