I guess this rapture thing isn't happening so I did one of my overdue reviews

No association of adverse life experiences with decision-making impairments in patients with schizophrenia - Evidence from two empirical studies: https://osf.io/fs6cw

And the second coloring book from the #Nobel in chemistry series is also available now. #chemsky You can find them here: www.amazon.com/dp/B0DDTWLD8D

Understanding behavior requires datasets that capture humans while carrying out complex tasks. The kitchen is an excellent environment for assessing human motor and cognitive function, as many complex actions are naturally exhibited in kitchens from chopping to 🧽! arxiv.org/abs/2506.01608

I’m super excited to finally put my recent work with @behrenstimb.bsky.social on bioRxiv, where we develop a new mechanistic theory of how PFC structures adaptive behaviour using attractor dynamics in space and time! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Awkward as it might look, sideways locomotion might have fueled the diversification of crabs and allowed them to conquer new habitats. That story and more of the best from @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪

This is huge: “A drug that provides near-perfect protection against H.I.V. with shots just twice a year will be made available at $40 per patient annually in low- and middle-income countries, offering new hope… making lenacapavir a realistic choice in countries with constrained resources.”

The piles of unfolded laundry at my house are now evidence that we’ve been raptured

My partner got me this coffee mug, it works on many levels

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

Excited to share our new eLife paper from our lab's first Ph.D. graduate, Dr. Justin Campbell! In this paper, Justin explored the effects of direct electrical stimulation to the human amygdala on single-unit activity throughout the brain. We'd love to hear your thoughts!

It’s either this or they sniff every blade of grass for 6 minutes each 😂

First shot across the bow from ongoing project with Jake.

Do sub-millisecond pulsars exist? “NO” Is that’s a way to start a talk! #Pulsars2025

From burying beetles to shamans, follow Manvir Singh @manvir.bsky.social in his sweeping Q&A from our latest issue. www.cell.com/current-biol...

New work from the lab, mismatch responses consistent with spatial but not temporal predictive coding theory.

Lyndon B. Johnson's response to satire

Does predictive coding work in SPACE or in TIME? Most neuroscientists assume TIME, i.e. neurons predict their future sensory inputs. We show that in visual cortex predictive coding actually works across SPACE, just like the original Rao+Ballard theory #neuroscience www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

We are delight to have @kjedlovszky.bsky.social visiting from @danieljamesyon.bsky.social lab, despite appearances we do not work in the Nakatomi Plaza from Die Hard!

Excited to start my first day at Yale as a Visiting Researcher in @philcorlett.bsky.social's lab, working on social hallucinations and paranoid thinking 💫 Thank you to @exppsychsoc.bsky.social for generously funding this visit!

What drives emergent leader-follower dynamics in animal groups? We integrate the process of movement initiations into the marginal value theorem, and discover that the identities of leaders can change over time. nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Complementary attentional mechanisms for the resolution of representational ambiguity in the human brain https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.09.22.677741v1

This is a really good read about how experimental psychology research can inform us about human decision making in the context of rare and common outcomes/events/facts.

This is the only time of the year you can post this.

Excellent explainer on why private industry and venture capital can’t replace government funded basic science research.

Took my son to NYC for his birthday. I think he’s the coolest 9 year old, a deep thinker and a rockstar.

Visited Liberty Island today, sad how the values she embodies are so imperiled

New findings from my lab in Nature Communications suggest that racial stereotypes can lead the brain's perceptual system to temporarily "see" weapons where they don't exist. Led by: @dongwonoh.bsky.social Paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41... (1/6)

This is one of the most outstanding examples of circuit understanding I've seen in a long time. The unification of theory and experiment is beautiful. When Malcolm presented this in my lab, the audience was cheering at the end, and one person shouted (non-ironically) "You did it!"

Wow!

🚨Our preprint is online!🚨 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... How do #dopamine neurons perform the key calculations in reinforcement #learning? Read on to find out more! 🧵

Neuron-to-cancer neurotransmission: lung cancer cells "can form functional synapses and receive synaptic transmission" from neurons pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40931078/ This is creepy

Temporal integration in human auditory cortex is predominantly yoked to absolute time www.nature.com/articles/s41... There's a difference between integrating across absolute time & structure (say) phonemes. Do cortical computations reflect time or structure? Results showed time-yoked computations ⏱️

I'm super happy to have the lab featured on @thetransmitter.bsky.social, my favorite place for neuroscience news! #neuroskyence @uabneuro.bsky.social

Anyone else feeling this way these days? 😂

hey so this is insane

So super important and such top notch science from an incredible team!

"machines were far more likely than human agents to carry out fully unethical instructions." rdcu.be/eGY0v

🧠 Why do people believe lies? A new study shows that interpersonal neural synchrony between brains predicts when deception will succeed. Trust in close relationships can lower vigilance, making lies harder to detect. 🔗 doi.org/10.1523/JNEU... #SciComm 🧪 #Neuroscience #Psychology

This article is truly impressive, both for the significance of its findings and the enormous amount of work it represents! Briefly, it demonstrates that the gut-brain vagal axis exerts a considerable influence on dopamine-dependent reward-related processes... 1/n www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
