Opportunity to move to Canada. 🍁 The Lifespan Institute @brocku.ca is looking to hire a Canada Excellence Research Chair In Healthy Development Across the Lifespan. More info in the job ad (salary negotiable). brocku.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/brocku_caree....

Hey you, Professor, you don't look busy. Would you mind telling us (yet again) everything you've done over the past 7 years. Cheers, NSERC

Fixed it!

Olli thinks I should just stay home for all of January. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Home for the holidays, so it's gotta be my teen drink at my teen hangout. From before social media, when we talked IRL. 😂

Why does everyone and their uncle think they need to email season's greetings? I don't want a look back at 2025 for your shitty journal/office/company? How'd you get my email?! 🤨 #AcademicSky #BahHumbug

The one validated intervention to slow aging and extend healthspan is not for sale. It's exercise. sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

This includes Canadian PhDs & Postdocs looking to return to Canada 🍁 #PsychSciSky #neuroskyence

📣Hey international PhDs & Postdocs, the Canadian Government has an upcoming fellowship opportunity. nserc-crsng.canada.ca/en/canada-im... I will be looking to sponsor a Postdoc to work with Linda Geerligs & me on LONGITUDINAL changes in neural states during movie watching & memory. ✉️ me your CV

Okay, I've finally lost it. Went to put my contacts in this morning, they weren't in the case. Was like, "who threw out my contacts!?! Wait, why can I read the clock from over here...okay, yah, they're in my eyes."

When an 8-page grant proposal could have been 4...

Hilarious. And my teens' listening ages were 48 and 74. We're doing it right! 😂 #SpotifyWrapped. www.spotify.com/wrapped-shar...

The term "girl math" fills me with a special kind of rage.

Had a great time presenting to the Applied Cognitive Neuroscience group @torontomet.bsky.social and seeing old friends. Thanks for having me, Julia Spaniol, @mnrajah.bsky.social, and @thinkauditory.bsky.social!

#PsychSciSky Grad Student Data Blitz @brocku.ca yesterday. From moralized prejudice to sustained attention to the role of hormones is adolescent social behaviour, it was fun hearing about the wide range of amazing research being done in our department. @brockufoss.bsky.social

So long Jays, back to our family's primary obsession 😂 #soccersaturday #avfc #shitonthecity

We put #AI in the job title because, um, reasons. #PsychSciSky #2025JobMarket

If you'll be at the Symposium for Individual Differences in Cognition, check out @hannahgthomas.bsky.social's poster (#11) on the relationship between sustained attention and inhibitory control. Wish I could be there! #FOMO🗻🔬🎉🍻 @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social #psynom25 #SIDIC

TFW you have so many emails, you forget what your actual job is. Seriously, what am I supposed to be doing here? 🤔😵‍💫 #AcademicSky #AcademicChatter

Involved in grad admissions? This is worth a read 👇🏻

Guys, I just wrote a review proposal while on a run that I was unable to write all of yesterday, sat at my desk. New #lifehack? 🤯 (Yes, I probably have #ADHD 🤣)

I encourage every PhD student to set up an academic website, even if they don't feel like they have a lot to put on it. Why? Helps to get discovered by search engines and establish a search-friendly presence. What platforms work well for simple websites and are cheap (or better yet, free)? 👀

Someone thinks they're my 4th baby. 🤣

Maths... If you make $100,000 a year (not bad), it will take you 10 MILLION years to earn a trillion dollars. If you make a million dollars a year (wow!), it'll still take you a million years to earn a trillion dollars. Tax the rich.

An update on this story - grad students are now exempt from the cap in student visas. 🧪

So you apparently can't trust a banker with the environment. Huh. 🤔 #Budget2025

a gross parliamentary overreach — article by @picardonhealth.bsky.social in the globe and mail; #academicsky #neuroskyence #psychscisky www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/91587b9...

It’s insulting to tell 🇨🇦 scientists we need international scientists to run to our rescue & ensure innovation. 🇨🇦 scientists have exceeded expectations with paltry funding. If the gov funded Tricouncil > & sustainably; imagine how innovative we’d already be!! /End

This is what passes for fun in my house. 7yo repeatedly testing which side of the 🎲 will reach 100 the fastest. The 16yo's idea, not mine! 😂 #statistics #data #mathisfun

Two factor authentication? Really? If someone else wants to review these grants for me, have at it. 😂

But, as @pinglamjoeip.bsky.social and I have written about extensively at this point, it is a complete myth that federal research funding is being unfairly allocated to "woke" or "leftist" research.

🧵The Canadian House of Commons Standing Committee on Science and Research has put forward a motion to release ALL data in relation to federal research funding applications. This motion was put forward by conservative MPs who are skeptical of funding being allocated "fairly."

Let's go #BlueJays / Happy #Halloween!

I have become my former supervisor. Late to all meetings, distractable, perpetually annoyed by bureaucracy. Hopefully half as creative?? 😶‍🌫️ #AcademicChatter

Programming skill is just a set of rules you've inferred via personal suffering

Has anyone ever looked at Reviewer Credits (e.g., on Web of Science) for anything? No? I thought not. So let's stop kidding ourselves. #Science #AcademicChatter #AcademicSky

Let's go #BlueJays! #WantItAll

New preprint! What happens in the brain when people offload memories into external reminders? Using fMRI decoding, we found that the corresponding neural trace fades until it becomes statistically absent. osf.io/preprints/ps... 🧵...

I will be recruiting 🌟PhD students🌟 for my newish lab! If you're interested in learning & memory mechanisms applied to individual, interactive & collective behavior using computational modeling, real-world experiments and fMRI, email me! RTs much appreciated 🙏 rouhanilab.com

Time seems to speed up as we get older - is that partly due to events/neural states lasting longer? #PsychSciSky #Neuroskyence www.livescience.com/health/neuro...

Read just this brief excerpt from her book and you'll marvel at a) how prescient she was and b) how SV hasn't really changed. www.motherjones.com/politics/199...

A metaphor if I ever saw one.
