AI in Politics: Repairing Democratic Connections? New chapter from @tamaraehs.bsky.social, @ortiztudela.bsky.social and I. We explore what the democratic challenges would be if we all had our own AI political adviser. The whole book is available open access: www.steiner-verlag.de/en/Connectiv...

Hola de nuevo! Nuestro ya querido ReproducibiliTea está de vuelta un curso más 🤗. Para retomar el ritmo, este mes abordaremos un artículo en forma de comentario sobre la cuestión de si merece la pena coordinarnos mejor en ciencia 🤝. Os esperamos el próximo 27 de octubre a las 16h.

It may sound obvious, but I’m amazed by how much time and effort you can save just by simply sharing and discussing ideas with as many people as possible **before** stepping into the lab 🥲.

Very happy to finally see this out! A while ago I had the wonderful opportunity to meet an awesome group of scientists from very diverse fields, interested in exchanging thoughts, experiences and ideas. In this book, we collect some of these exchanges as a celebration the richness of science.

A few weeks ago our project CONNECTS was featured in @canalsurradiotv.bsky.social. The full video is now available in YouTube (link below). Thank you very much to the ConCiencia team for their amazing Science Outreach work! youtu.be/HjqJmw5tdgU?...

👩‍💻 New preprint out (FIRST one of my PhD journey) with the incredible @lindedomingo.bsky.social @ortiztudela.bsky.social @gonzalezgarcia.bsky.social "From sudden perceptual learning to enduring engrams: A representational perspective" 🧠 doi.org/10.31234/osf...

How do the brain’s event representations change as we gain familiarity with an experience? Brain regions’ representations can become coarser or finer as event familiarity increases. Fine-tuning predicts memory recall. Excited to share this work with Narjes Al-Zahli & @chrisbaldassano.bsky.social!

Successful prediction of the future enhances encoding of the present. I am so delighted that this work found a wonderful home at Open Mind. The peer review journey was a rollercoaster but it *greatly* improved the paper. direct.mit.edu/opmi/article...

🚨 We’re hiring a postdoc! Join the FLARE project @cimcyc.bsky.social to study sudden perceptual learning using fMRI, RSA, and DNNs. 🧠 2 years, fully funded, flexible start More info 👉 gonzalezgarcia.github.io/postdoc/ DMs or emails welcome! Please share!

Thrilled to share this resource: if you have a Psychology/CogNeuro background and you are considering embracing coding into your workflow, this guide is for you (or your students in this situation!). Thanks to @gonzalezgarcia.bsky.social for leading this initiative!

🧠💻 We (a bunch of colleagues at @cimcyc.bsky.social) just released a programming guide for psych & cog neuro students. Instead of a tutorial, this is a starting point: a collection of reflections, examples, and recommendations. 👉 Still growing, but ready to explore: wobc.github.io/programming_book/

Remember that tomorrow we have a special #CIMCYCSession with @pakitochus.bsky.social from @dasciinst.bsky.social You can connect online! All information on our website👇 cimcyc.ugr.es/informacion/...

Recordatorio de que esto es la semana que viene!! Muchísimas ganas de que @aliciafrancomnez.bsky.social nos hable de este proyecto tan chulo. El enlace de la reunión podréis encontrarlo aquí o uniéndoos a la lista de correo! 👉 t.co/daiNcf7ZaB

If you haven't been looking recently at the Open Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science (oecs.mit.edu), here's your reminder that we are a free, open access resource for learning about the science of mind. Today we are launching our new Thematic Collections to organize our growing set of articles!

Very excited to share our new preprint on visual ambiguity resolution. Check it out 👇

How can we resolve ambiguous visual input? To answer this question, Mooney images meets THINGS and large scale behavior! Amazing effort by an amazing crew in Granada, and happy to play a small part in it!

New preprint! 🚨→ Determinants of Visual Ambiguity Resolution. A new work with @ortiztudela.bsky.social @jvoeller.bsky.social @martinhebart.bsky.social and @gonzalezgarcia.bsky.social We created ~2k images and collected ~100k responses to study visual ambiguity. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New paper out! 🎉 “Evolving Engrams Demand Changes in Effective Cues” (Hippocampus). In this opinion piece, we discuss how retrieval processes can be enhanced and offer an alternative to one of the field’s few enduring principles: encoding specificity. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Ahoy Psych and CogNeuro community! We have an opening for a PhD position. Are you interested in the impact of semantic congruity in (visual) cognition? Find more about the project and the position at: sites.google.com/view/connect.... Spread the word!

📣 ICON Symposium Really excited to announce our symposium at @ICON this year on Sudden Learning Across Systems! Together with lots of cool people: @gonzalezgarcia.bsky.social @lindedomingo.bsky.social @ortiztudela.bsky.social @anikaloewe.bsky.social @jazzmaniatico.bsky.social and Andrea Greve!
