@therealspr.bsky.social @ohbmofficial.bsky.social @sfn.org @dsbarra.bsky.social @esfinn.bsky.social @tervoclemmensb.bsky.social @dylanggee.bsky.social @ajaysatpute.bsky.social @neurosynth.bsky.social @jamielarsh.bsky.social

#SANS2025 will feature two debates! First Damien Fair will debate @thaliawheatley.bsky.social about the usefulness of large consortia vs. small bespoke studies, then @mohammadatari.bsky.social will debate @markthornton.bsky.social about caution vs. acceleration in applying AI to social neuroscience!

SANS abstract submission deadline now extended to December 30th! Submit here: socialaffectiveneuro.org/abstract-sub...

Two R21s submitted yesterday, waited till today to post yesterday's wordle (so, no spoilers). Should've submitted three.

Our dept at Pomona College is seeking a new TT colleague in computational neuroscience! It's an amazing place to be a teacher and a researcher. Please apply and let me know if you have any questions! academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/27999

Hope everyone is having another great day in Toronto #CNS2024 🍁! If you're around and into effect sizes or subcortex, we have some posters for you! Come visit Alex Fischbach & @halleeshearer.bsky.social at tomorrow's poster session ✨during the Social Hour✨ Sunday 5 PM

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be joining @northeasterncos.bsky.social as an Assistant Professor of Psychology/Biology in Fall ’24! I’ll be developing a systems-based framework for understanding the role of brain metabolism in mental health (sciencedirect.com/science/arti...).

One of my photos made it to the Florida Museum’s top 10 finalists for the “Water Shapes Florida” photo contest…winner is determined by popular vote, so go vote for image #4, “Buford Sink”! 🩵 VOTING LINK: www.floridamuseum.ufl.edu/events/blog/...

Boston College is hiring a director for a shared Human Neuro Lab. IMO this is a dream job for someone who loves research and cog neuro methods but doesn't want to go the traditional tenure track route: bc.csod.com/ux/ats/caree...

New paper at Nature Communications from me & @dianatamir.bsky.social! "Neural representations of situations and mental states are composed of sums of representations of the actions they afford" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to finally share this paper, nearly 5 years in the making! In it, me and co-authors share our thoughts on how (and to what extent) signals from the body map onto affective feelings. Writing this definitely brought forth more questions than answers! authors.elsevier.com/c/1ieTJ4sIRv...

🚨We're hiring a lab manager!🚨We're looking for a stellar post-bacc interested in studying emotions, supporting lab infrastructure, and building community. Please spread the word! See links in 1st comment for our mission and culture. Review starts 3/1! research-princeton.icims.com/jobs/18407/r...

We've studied the literature. We know timing is crucial for manipulating attention. We know we can't control well stimulus presentation on browsers. Still: we're perplexed. Even if a frame (or two!) are missed, this should work! Published results show Posner cueing works online. What's going on?!

The Social & Affective Neuroscience Society call for award nominations for 2024 are NOW OPEN! These include the Distinguished Scholar Award, (new!) Mid-Career Award, Early Career Award, and Innovation Award. Self-nominations for all are welcome. socialaffectiveneuro.org/awards/

Trying to find a paper about how a preceding affective stimulus can modulate the neural response to a subsequent affective stimulus. Hours of searching, no luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hey SPSPers, Kate Ratliff and I are excited to co-organize the Social Cognition Preconference for #SPSP2024! We have an amazing list of speakers: Jimmy Calanchini, Jennifer Kubota, Brian Lucas, Tal Moran, Jordan Starck, Sabrina Thai, and Keith Maddox (keynote)!! Hope to see you there!

The Social & Affective Neuroscience Society is happy to be here on Bluesky! Please follow for content highlighting the exciting work and brilliant people that make up this great organization.

Intro! I'm an associate professor at Northeastern University, and my lab focuses on the cognitive neuroscience of emotion and social perception: web.northeastern.edu/affectiveand... #cogneuro #neuroscience #psychscisky #emotion #socialpsych #ai #ml
