Thrilled about our latest paper published in eLife where we found something cool: A representation of your partner's goals and actions modulates your own "intelligent reflexes", prior to voluntary movement. Led by the phenomenal, Seth Sullivan. elifesciences.org/reviewed-pre...

I've officially welcomed my first thesis student as an incoming PI. July 1st is starting to feel real! To the young women finding their way into research, the process matters. Preparation, curiosity, courage. Outcomes usually find you. Grateful for voices like Cori Close! #WomenInSTEM #Neuroscience

This really resonates with me, Paul, especially what you said about growth through intellectual struggle. I remember a time in your lab when @joshcashaback.bsky.social wouldn’t give me the answer to a coding/design problem. I felt so frustrated then and just wanted someone to tell me the solution.

revised version of @mahdiyar45.bsky.social's paper: "A Context-Free Model of Savings in Motor Learning" #neuroskyence #psychscisky #sensorimotor www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I am excited to start at #UofG this July. I look forward to contributing to research and helping to build a strong, collaborative scientific community.

This paper expands my research methods to include transcutaneous nerve stimulation and fNIRS. We used a multi-method approach to measure hemodynamic responses during a 45-minute session, revealing a nonlinear temporal potentiation mechanism centered in the posterior parietal cortex.

✨ Exciting News! ✨ I am thrilled to share that I will be joining the University of Guelph's Department of Psychology in Neuroscience and Applied Cognitive Science as an Assistant Professor, starting July 1, 2026. I will be returning to Canada on Canada Day!

Rest in peace, to a legend who taught us all to hope and to act. She showed an entire generation of girls, including me, that we could be scientists, that we could be brave enough to go into the wild and change the world through curiosity and compassion.

From @theathletic.bsky.social: Olympic champion Faith Kipyegon fell short in her bid to become the first woman to break the four-minute mile. Kipyegon ran 4:06.92, the fastest time over the distance recorded by a woman, breaking her own world record. nyti.ms/44AXZll

Pro tip, folks: if you make a figure for a publication, don’t just hand the copyright over to the publisher. Post it on OSF first and then give yourself permission to use it in the first publication and then all future publications. That way, no permissions issues.

I urge everyone to read Unbreaking’s new page on everything the govt is doing to destroy & diminish medical research funding. It’s the best thing I’ve read on this topic: @lizneeley.bsky.social & co have such done an incredible job. unbreaking.org/issues/medic...

I have seen folks waste so much time by not properly planning research. Missed literature, missing controls, ignored hypotheses, etc. Lack of planning also produces bad science (e.g. analysis until significant). So I am writing an app. Looking for feedback. scientific-paper-planner-test.vercel.app
