​I'm incredibly honored to share that I have been selected to receive one of the American Brain Foundation's Next Generation Research Grants, specifically the award in epilepsy!

American Brain Foundation@abfbrain.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Presenting 14 new Next Generation Research Grant recipients for 2026! 🎉 These brilliant early-career researchers will study brain conditions from #ALS to #stroke. Their innovative work will make an important difference in the fight against #BrainDisease. Read more about their work ➡️ buff.ly/JoeSTaE

Thanks @insneuro.bsky.social for the conference! I got to present my lab's electrical stimulation mapping work, listen to inspiring talks (big fan of the "main thing" talk/Dr. Bauer's ideas on neural mechanisms of behavior!), and introduce my Iowa and Florida friends! Plus I made a new canine friend

A dream of mine has come true: I've accepted an offer to become a tenure-track assistant professor & clinical neuropsychologist at the University of Iowa starting this summer! I'm honored to help carry on the legacy of neuropsychology and cognitive neuroscience that has been established here.

Our new preprint is up now, wherein we directly record from a relatively large population of single neurons in human insula, as well as primary auditory cortex, while intracranial participants passively listen to simple sounds (tones/clicks). doi.org/10.1101/2025... (1/5) 🧠📈🧵👇

Human insula neurons respond to simple sounds during passive listening

The insula is critical for integrating sensory information from the body with that arising from the environment. Although previous studies suggest that posterior insula is sensitive to sounds, auditor...

Just jumped on - looks amazing for science. Looking for neuropsychology or cognitive neuroscience or behavioral neurology or movement disorders or dementia folks.. or anyone interested in aging for that matter…

A shameless plug now that science Twitter has migrated to Bluesky: I'm on the (clinical academic) job market! If anyone is looking for an early career clinical neuropsychologist with expertise in lesion-deficit mapping, neuroimaging/tractography, and estim+behavior, please let me know!

Hi Bluesky peeps, a brief introduction - I'm a neuroscientist working with amazing intracranial patients in Iowa, recording single neurons and local field potentials, mainly to understand aspects of auditory cognition and pathological auditory processing #neuroskyence #introduction

Hi everyone, I'm a postdoc in clinical neuropsychology & cognitive neuroscience at the University of Iowa. My research uses lesion network mapping & intracranial stimulation/iEEG to study the neural mechanisms of domain-general cognition, and to predict clinical outcomes. #neuroscience #PsychSkySci
