My first post into the bsky void, the first preprint of my PhD! A novel task to bridge learning and effort decision-making. Of course, we find that effort choice is sensitive to prior learning, but this integration of beliefs into action is affected by anhedonia. doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Effort choices are sensitive to prior learning

Motivated behaviour relies on both learning and effort-based decision-making, yet these processes are often studied in isolation. We developed a novel paradigm combining probabilistic associative lear...

My pre-PhD work with @noham-wolpe.bsky.social is finally out! doi.org/10.1037/mot0000411 How does progress feedback influence effort-based decision-making? Our study involved a novel effort manipulation designed for online testing and mouse-tracking. The results came with a twist on apathy… (🧵1/3)

🚨Thrilled to share a new paper on emotion ensemble processing in anxiety. Threat biases arose in dual fashion, such that individuals with anxiety displayed: • an attentional bias indicating threat avoidance • a judgemental bias favouring threat ➡️ doi.org/10.1037/abn0... 🧠 @pandmlabhku.bsky.social

New preprint alert! How do we process uncertainty, and how do neurometabolites shape this?🧠Here we combine computational modeling + 7T MRS to answer these questions: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... With Peter Thestrup Waade, Chris Mathys, Frederike Petzchner, @beckyneuro.bsky.social & others! 🧵(1/4)

Neurochemical markers of uncertainty processing in humans

How individuals process and respond to uncertainty has important implications for cognition and mental health. Here we use computational phenotyping to examine individualised 'uncertainty fingerprints...
