🧠 BD² PI @ignaciosaezphd.bsky.social and his team are using deep brain stimulation and epilepsy-based brain recordings to better understand the circuits that drive mood changes in bipolar disorder. The more we learn about these circuits, the closer we get to treatments tailored to brain biology.

What’s holding us back from developing a clinical BCI for mental health? My new review in @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social outlines a roadmap to overcome the unique hurdles facing cognitive BCIs by integrating & expanding on existing neurotech methods. Read here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1nSLK4sIRv...

What predicts mental health disorders' onset and treatment success? Join our free #CCN2026 satellite meeting on the latest computational cognitive neuroscience parsing the multi-scale, dynamical systems of disorders that emerge across development, symptom expression, presentation & treatment.

1/ I am thrilled to begin sharing the latest release of pyEM, a Python package I built for fitting cognitive computational models to behavioral data using hierarchical expectation maximization (EM) with maximum a posteriori estimation (MAP). github.com/shawnrhoads/...

Back in New Haven for #cpconf2026! If you'll be there, come say hi! In the first session (#A54), I'll present work on how social craving dynamics shape loneliness - one example using pyEM for custom computational models 📃 Preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps... 📈 App: shawnrhoadsphd.com/social-cravi...
