🚨 New Preprint 🚨 Targeting intracranial electrical stimulation (ES) to network regions defined within individuals causes network-level effects By Cyr et al. *** Q: Can we use individualized network maps from precision fMRI to modulate a targeted network via intracranial ES? A: Yes! 🧵:

Our new paper out now in Science explores how neural activity in the lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) *drifts* over time - and *jumps* at key boundaries - to help organize events in memory. 🔗 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... Here's a quick summary of what we found 🧵👇

new paper from a collaborative endeavor! (@co0p3r.bsky.social) we find & replicate food-reward biases in a reinforcement learning task (where food stim are incidental) people with eating disorder symptoms show a low-calorie food bias while those without show a high-calorie food bias... (1/3)

Emotions create vivid and lasting memories - but how are those memories organized? We find that negative emotions fragment experience, disrupting the flow of memory. Reframing negative feelings also carves up experiences, but in a way that supports integration and wellbeing. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Excited to announce that our paper (led by @hyejinjadelee.bsky.social & Derek Smith) is out in @nathumbehav.nature.com go.illinois.edu/Lee2025_NHB We use 36 days of testing in 4 inhibitory control tasks to examine the precision of inhibitory control measures in *individuals* and how they vary 🧵👇

Join us in beautiful Santa Barbara! We're hiring a full-time junior specialist/research technician to play a central role in data collection & analysis of brain imaging studies of pregnancy & menopause. Learn more & apply at: recruit.ap.ucsb.edu/JPF02974 Or help us spread the word 💫

📢 Today I was supposed to be in DC, highlighting what the NSF Social, Behavioral, & Economic Sciences delivers to US taxpayers. NSF had one of the highest returns on investment (ROIs) of federal grantors 👏🏻 (1) and NSF SBE funded 63% of US social and psychological science research (2). 🧵

In keeping with the theme of time travel… now into the future: 🕰️ Another recent paper from the lab—a preregistered study with Isabel Schuman, Jingyi Wang & Ian Ballard @iancballard.bsky.social —is now published. Here, we looked at future orientation, decision making & anorexia nervosa risk.

A bit late to post this... but what’s a delay when the paper’s in a special issue on Emotional Time Travel? 🙂 🕰️ Excited to share this work—led by postdoc Jingyi Wang—on how emotional event boundaries shape temporal memory.

I'm looking for a new full-time research assistant ("junior specialist"). It's not quite "lab manager" because I have someone who takes care of the administrative tasks, and here I'm looking for someone to help us get research done! Info is below, please pass on to any talented candidates, thanks!

In light of recent emotionally salient events - wondering how these are remembered? I’m thrilled to share new work from the lab, led by lab manager Julia Pratt, capturing emotional memories *inside and outside the lab* and quantifying their accuracy & structure pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39870487/

Happy New Year🎉 Thrilled to start 2025 with $1M from @cziscience.bsky.social @chanzuckerberg.bsky.social to study the maternal brain using AI! Grateful for the chance to advance science for mothers worldwide 🧠 @emilyjacobs.bsky.social @susanacarmona.bsky.social @magdamartinezga.bsky.social

What an honor to join the White House Conference on Women’s Health Research and celebrate the incredible gains made over the past year. I am ever optimistic that progress will continue to accelerate at break-neck speed & across sectors.

How do rewards influence how we select and pursue goals? Our study finds that rewards can create 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬 in goal selection and execution—similar to habits—but without reducing cognitive flexibility. Check out our paper for more! @jocn.bsky.social direct.mit.edu/jocn/article...

I want to draw attention to a special issue that Lila Davachi and I put together to memorialize our friend and colleague Sarah DuBrow. It’s full of papers inspired by her work and her being from a group of collaborators, friends, and fans! Thanks @bradpostle.bsky.social for helping make this happen.

Excited to share our new publication, out today in @currentbiology.bsky.social . Project lead by the amazing @sophiepeterson.bsky.social 🧠 🔬🐀 www.cell.com/current-biol...

I just set up @jcogneurosci.bsky.social ; at some point it will post papers as they publish, if folks want to friend that account. thx

The Computational and Cognitive Neural Sciences lab at UC Riverside is recruiting psychology PhD students to join our team! Check out the flyer to learn about the lab and our stellar research community at UCR. Apply by 12/1! @halledz.bsky.social @ilanabennett.bsky.social @ucriverside.bsky.social

Hi folks! I’m a prof at UCSB and dir of the Ann S. Bowers Women’s Brain Health Initiative, a U of California wide brain imaging consortium to drive discovery via big n Big Data and small n precision imaging. You can follow our efforts here 🧠💫 #Neuroskyence #neuroimaging #WomenInSTEM

📢 New job alert: The Dept. of Psychological & Brain Sciences at UCSB is hiring a new Director for our Brain Imaging Center! Join us in sunny Santa Barbara and please help spread the word! (Full Professor position—due by Dec 2) 🧠 🌊 recruit.ap.ucsb.edu/JPF02858

Hello new followers: Time for an introduction! My affective & cognitive neuroscience lab at UCSB studies emotion-cognition interactions, including affect & cognitive control, temporal memory, & metacognition using fMRI, TMS, EEG, & psychophyz. 🧠 Check out our work here: lapatelab.psych.ucsb.edu

I’m so proud of this work - a major milestone for the lab as we dig into the neural, affective, and physiological correlates of embodied mind-wandering! #neuroskyence
