What a week! #CPC2026 was amazing, and it was such a joy to co-organize & host it here at Yale with @robbrutledge.bsky.social @xiaosigu.bsky.social @yiplab.bsky.social @francesghart.bsky.social & Al Powers & Katie Myerscough (our MVP!) Some highlights... 🧵

It’s a wrap #CPC2026! Thanks to the organizers, presenters, and attendees for an unforgettable experience - hope to see you all in Paris!

Had an amazing time at the 2026 Computational Psychiatry Conference presenting my ongoing work on formalizing impulsivity as a mathematical model! ✨ Honored and excited to share that I received the Best Poster Award! 🏆 Big thank you to my co-authors and my PI, @shirleybwang.bsky.social!!

Had the best time at #APS2026 sharing my formal modeling work on suicide and impulsivity! ✨ Grateful to my mentor, @shirleybwang.bsky.social, and my lab for making these projects possible, and to all the wonderful people I had the chance to meet and learn from throughout this conference!

The CCS Lab is at #APS2026 in Barcelona! 🌟 Catch us across Friday & Saturday with talks on formal theories, natural language processing, and EMA in suicide and eating disorders! @sharinahamm.bsky.social @leilyb.bsky.social @adanyajohnson.bsky.social @shirleybwang.bsky.social

Immediately afterward at 5:30, I'll be presenting a computational model for emotion dysregulation based on appraisal-arousal feedback and a physiological gain mechanism. Along with amazing talks from @pf-hitchcock.bsky.social, @sharinahamm.bsky.social, and Don Robinaugh. Come through!

So excited to share this new paper, out in JEP:G with the incredible @jamieamemiya.bsky.social, Gail Heyman, and @carenwalker.bsky.social! We tested how children and adults reason about disparate impact policies: formally neutral laws or rules that are indirectly discriminatory. (1/7)

New preprint alert! (1/5)🌟 I’m thrilled to share the preprint of my first first-authored PhD paper! We test whether shared reinforcement functions help explain why adolescents who engage in one self-destructive behavior often engage in others. Summary⬇ osf.io/preprints/ps...

What a week! After 5 days, the #mitnb workshop has come to an end. We had a keynote on time scales and two workshops on careless responding and reliability. The central part of the workshops were the hackathons. We had super diverse hackathons, all designed to assess measurement in #ESM. (1/4)

(6/6) Big thank you to co-authors @sharinahamm.bsky.social , @leilyb.bsky.social , @kathrynfox.bsky.social , @shirleybwang.bsky.social- and bluesky-less Kathryn Coniglio, Erin Reilly, and Leah Somerville- for their support in this project!

Last weekend my lab attended our first conference together @harvardwipsych.bsky.social! It was an *incredible* way to wrap up our first year 😍 @sharinahamm.bsky.social @francesghart.bsky.social

Most importantly my heart was BURSTING with pride to see @sharinahamm.bsky.social & Leily Behbehani give their first talks!!!! Seeing your students succeed is the most special & pure form of joy 🥹🥹

Almost exactly one year after starting my lab (!), I'm thrilled to share our first preprint! 🥳 @leilyb.bsky.social @sharinahamm.bsky.social @francesghart.bsky.social We propose future directions for mathematical, computational, & digital methods to advance suicide research: osf.io/preprints/ps...
