🚀 New preprint out! With @toninfrc.bsky.social, @michaelgaebler.com & Ł. Okruszek: "Lost in Emotional Space". We introduce emotional bandwidth, a new way to measure how people navigate their emotional landscape in daily life, and link it to depression and loneliness using experience sampling 🧵 1/5

In some way, it's trivial: The #brain & the rest of the #body (e.g. the #heart) are coupled. Yet, we spelled it out w/ A. Villringer & V. Nikulin for current scientists (below) w/ @martager.bsky.social @agatapatyczek.bsky.social @el-rei.bsky.social for future scientists bsky.app/profile/mart...

Reposting this post by @ruben.the100.ci bc I was just reminded of how wasteful the whole peer-review process is. Authors will receive feedback on flaws that need to be fixed & then just move on to the next journal & submit the same manuscript, as if nothing happened. www.the100.ci/2020/06/24/m...
Mis-allocated scrutiny
In the current system of pre-publication peer review, which papers are scrutinized most thoroughly? In this blog post, I argue that scrutiny is mis-allocated: the average number of pre-publication rev...

New blog post! "Preregistration: More Promises than Pitfalls," some thoughts inspired by the recent meeting at the Royal Society. I don't find many pitfalls with preregistration itself, but there are plenty of problems with how we talk about it. getsyeducated.substack.com/p/preregistr...
Preregistration: More Promises than Pitfalls

Research prizes are opaque and rife with bias — it’s time to shake them up Awards should be standard-bearers for transparent, robust research that is inclusive, equitable and trustworthy. But that is not what they are right now #womeninscience www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Many researchers in cognitive neuroscience and deep learning seem to assume that inference in the brain is hierarchical. Our new Nature Reviews Neuroscience paper questions this assumption and proposes the shallow brain hypothesis. #neuroskyence #brain www.nature.com/articles/s41...
