Genuinely delighted to download a PhD thesis from a university repository where the author has neglected to remove the words "BITCH THIS IS YOUR THESIS" from the filename.

I am recruiting a postdoc for a new NIMH-funded R01 using neural and behavioral models to understand anxious avoidance. Please share with anyone who may be interested! Link: faculty-emory.icims.com/jobs/155929/...

Out today in Molecular Psychiatry our paper on multiverse computational factor modeling (i.e. a lotta lotta factor analyses). Thread below for the full rundown. Last PhD paper from @celinef.bsky.social YOU'RE FREE!! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New paper published "Transforming psychiatry with computational and brain-based methods" co-authored by Professor Claire Gillan, Trinity College Institute for Neuroscience and School of Psychology. Please see the full paper below: Claire Gillan https://www.nature.com/articles/s43588-025-00884-9

Looks interesting! We have been facing this exact issue - finding big inconsistencies across different LLMs rating the same text.

Excited to share this new preprint on the Predictive Modelling of Depression Treatment Response using Individual Symptoms and Latent Factors with @clairegillan.bsky.social fresh up on @medrxivpreprint.bsky.social www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

New preprint from the lab on habit learning in compulsivity from the fantastic @kellydonegan.bsky.social! ✅ N=1000, ✅ pre-registered, ✅ within-person crossover design...we study individual differences in habit learning using the Neureka App

🚨PREPRINT ALERT🚨 Why do some people get stuck doing things that no longer make sense, or are even harmful? Our new study shows compulsivity isn’t just about weakened goal-directed control; people high in compulsivity also form stronger habits 📄: osf.io/preprints/ps... #PaperFairy #Habits #CogSci

I'm hiring 2+ 2.5-year postdocs over the next few months. Job 1: looking for someone with deep expertise in computational modelling (reinforcement learning, agent based modelling) on real-world/complex data (closing: 18 August, starting: October-December), www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/52059/

You happen to be at #CPConf2025 and interested in habitual processes and how they contribute to compulsivity? We've gathered data from 180 individuals across three different compulsion types including phone-checking (not reflected in the DSM!). Come visit me at poster 2.46!

Come to my fan-tastic poster at #CPConf2025 🪭 Poster 35 to find out all things habits, gamification or to get a quick cool down 🥵

Our new study published in eLife (collaboration with @clairegillan.bsky.social, @celinef.bsky.social and @samgilbert.bsky.social) explores the complex relationship between metacognition, compulsivity and the utilization of external reminders. (1/8)

Sad to be missing #CPConf2025 but there is spirit and via posters from @kellydonegan.bsky.social (TUES) @glassybrain.bsky.social (TUES) and Paveen Phon-Amnuaisuk (WED)

Serious FOMO here #CPConf2025

🚨 New paper alert! Do time constraints reveal habitual behaviour? 🤔 We directly compared two major paradigms in the habit research field (Outcome Devaluation vs Response Remapping) under identical training and forced-response conditions 🧠 ⏲️ ⌨️ preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Hello #Bluesky!👋 I’m late to the party, but excited to join! 🥳Sharing a recent moment at #RLDM2025: presented a poster on my recent PhD project on measuring time-dependent habits in the lab 🧠 – shared fresh findings, and discovered brilliant research while helping the organisers behind the scenes! 👩‍💻

Claire and team did a remarkable job here, and you should read their reply. An updated preprint from us will be out shortly, reflecting our revised understanding of these issues.

We @smfleming.bsky.social, Marion Rouault and @seowxft.bsky.social and I) have posted a reply osf.io/preprints/ps... to a preprint that recently raised concerns about the validity of associations between mental health and metacognition from online studies. I hope you can take the time to read it.

Our new study published in TheLancetPsych! We found that pramipexole augmentation substantially reduced depressive symptoms in patients with treatment-resistant depression over 48 weeks of treatment. This is an important advance in how we treat depression! 1/6 www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

In January, @ctlee.bsky.social put out a preprint on our work developing an ML model predicting response to internet-CBT 📑 vs antidepressant medication 💊 in depression using a real 🌎 observational design. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Next up, a new preprint from joint first authors Sol Fittipaldi and Vanessa Teckentrup @glassybrain.bsky.social on how negative mood relates to (and granger causes) daily fluctuations in a real world measure of cognitive processing speed - digital questionnaire response times (DQRTs)

Very happy to see this published open-access in Behavior Research Methods now 🤗 #neuroskyence doi.org/10.3758/s134...

🚨 New preprint alert! Our project investigating the effects of internalizing and trait anxiety on learning under uncertainty is finally online 🐆🐅 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

In our preprint "Limited evidence for reduced learning rate adaptation in anxious-depression, before or after treatment", led by @stephsuddell.bsky.social and Lili Zhang, we fail to find a robust association between anxious-depression and learning rate adaptation osf.io/preprints/ps...

Have fallen a bit behind on posting preprints on here. So for next few weeks will share a few things...

Check out some highlights from the Multi-Disciplinary Conference on Reinforcement Learning and Decision Making at Trinity College Dublin. For more see rldm.org #RDLM2025 with @clairegillan.bsky.social & @redmondoconnell.bsky.social

@kellydonegan.bsky.social showing our latest smartphone habit research this morning at @rldmdublin2025.bsky.social 📲

Another great #RLDM conference! Thank you @coolscontrol.bsky.social (general chair), Anne Collins and Stefano Albrecht (program chairs -- a TON of work!), @clairegillan.bsky.social and @redmondoconnell.bsky.social (local chairs -- a gazillion amount of work) and all others who made this happen!

Many variables determine whether instrumental behaviour is goal-directed or habitual. We have documented in rats that delays between response and outcome attenuate sensitivity to outcome devaluation (a canonical test of goal directedness). In this study we replicated that observation in humans.

Are you coming to @rldmdublin2025.bsky.social #RLDM2025? Join our workshop on Gamification in Computational and Cognitive Neuroscience with an amazing speaker lineup! 🎮👾🧠💫 w/ @ondrejzika.bsky.social @ingrdmrtn.bsky.social

Exciting news - early bird registration is now open for #RLDM2025! 🔗 Register now: forms.gle/QZS1GkZhYGRF... Register now to save €100 on your ticket. Early bird prices are only available until 1st April.

Very happy that this preprint (I'm 2nd author & taking over for the bluesky-less Vanessa Scholz) is finally out! In a large online sample, we investigated how Pavlovian/motivational biases are associated with psychiatric symptom dimensions (as first defined by Claire Gillan).. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Hey there Bluesky #PsychSciSky #ComputationalPskychiatry - we have a lab retreat coming up and are going to do a session on principles of making GLORIOUS figures for papers. Any resources you'd recommend / online tutorials I can steal from??

Congratulations Dr Anna Rosicka @annarosicka.bsky.social on passing your Viva today! Another amazing student flying the nest 😥🦉. Thanks to examiners Clare MacKay and Claire Howlin #AlltheClaires. Celebrating this afternoon with a very special hat from @glassybrain.bsky.social

the most embarrassing part of being a “100 tabs open at once” guy is when you inadvertently close them and don’t even notice and there are absolutely no negative consequences

Little pre-holiday reminder: I'm recruiting for a Postdoctoral Research Associate (jobs.york.ac.uk/vacancy/rese...) - deadline is January the 12th, so think about it over the break and then apply in the New Year! Do get in touch if you have any questions (though bear in mind I'll be OOO too 🎄)
