Looking to work with a postdoc. Prior experience with fMRI and computational modeling required, interest in psychiatry desired. Fellowship provides three years salary plus independent travel/equipment funds. Send CV and 2-3 manuscripts (preprints OK).

We're hiring a full-time Lab Manager for the Cognitive Flexibility Dynamics Lab at the University of Maryland, studying cognitive control via brain recording, stimulation, and computational modeling. Ideal for research experience before grad school: cfd-lab.com/join

If you're going to Cogsci, you should check out this workshop being organized by @davidnagy.bsky.social and @hanqizhou.bsky.social from hmc-lab.com, together with an all-star cast of co-organizers and speakers. I'll be heading there straight from teaching at @bamb-school.bsky.social

How do human minds make sense of big, messy problems? 😵‍💫🌀 How do we distill complexity into something simple enough to solve? 🤔💡 We’ll be tackling these questions (and more!) at two workshops on task representations, abstractions, and construals #CogSci2026 #CCN2026 🧵 framing-the-problem.github.io

Meet @esfinn.bsky.social, Assistant Professor of Psychological & Brain Sciences @dartmouthpbs.bsky.social. Finn is a 2026 APS Spence Award recipient whose research focuses on individual variability in brain activity and behavior. www.psychologicalscience.org/publications...

Congratulations to @jadynpark.bsky.social and colleagues for winning the #SANS2026 Innovation Award for their paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to share my first-author paper now out in @natcomms.nature.com (www.nature.com/articles/s41...)! Here, we asked whether verbal narratives about social interactions activate the same brain areas as audiovisual presentations, and whether they overlap with theory of mind (ToM). (1/11)

Now out in PNAS with @jaeyoungson.bsky.social, Alice Xia, @apaxon.bsky.social & @orielf.bsky.social. Medial temporal lobe encodes predictive representations of people's real-world social networks which afford them key advantages in social navigation. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... 🧵

Very happy that this paper from our lab is now out in @pnas.org! What happens when the *same* person experiences the *same* information with a *different* interpretation? Nearly the whole 🧠—well, at least nearly all association cortex—changes how it represents that information! tinyurl.com/p8chj2j7

I have just arrived at @cosynemeeting.bsky.social ! During my flight, as I thought about opening remarks (and had a glass of wine), I got to reflect on why I love neuroscience. Maybe other folks are doing the same and would like to read or add, so I thought I'd do something unusual and share!

Congratulations to the 2026 APS Spence Award Recipients! @dorsaamir.bsky.social, @williambrady.bsky.social, @esfinn.bsky.social, @andrewgrotzinger.bsky.social, @ycleong.bsky.social, @danieljamesyon.bsky.social, www.psychologicalscience.org/members/awar...

Excited to share my first PhD paper with @ashenhav.bsky.social @shenhavlab.bsky.social “Rejection-based choices discourage people from opting out of voting.” www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Rejection-based choices discourage people from opting out of voting - Nature Communications

When people dislike their options for candidates, they tend to refrain from voting rather than voting for the candidate they like best. Here, the authors show that this tendency to opt out of lose-los...
