One of the last projects of my PhD looking into insular functional segregation in depression is finally out as a preprint 🙏👇 Have a look and let us know what you think! #neuroskyence

🚨We believe this is a major step forward in how we study hippocampus function in healthy humans. Using novel behavioral tasks, fMRI, RL & RNN modeling, and transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS), we demonstrate the causal role of hippocampus in relational structure learning.

Very happy to share my first preprint from @oxexppsy.bsky.social @oxneuro.bsky.social ! We (me + co-first authors @lilweb.bsky.social @mirunarascu.bsky.social + PI @mkflugge.bsky.social + many others) used transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (TUS/tFUS/LIFU) of the human amygdala ... (1/15)

Dynamic modulation of confidence based on the metacognitive skills of collaborators! Now out in @cognitionjournal.bsky.social New work from @felixhermans.bsky.social Simon Gaia @majafr.bsky.social and me! Paper here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40262423/ Details ↓↓↓

🚨📃New Wassum Lab Paper📃🚨 Out today, @jackiegio.bsky.social discovered brain pathways that support agency and habit and how chronic stress disrupts them to rob of us our agency and cause us to form rigid habits 🧵👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Free full text: rdcu.be/eaxEv

Humans are curious not just about the world, but also about their own minds. In our new paper, we describe a specific form of curiosity in which people strategically seek information not only about their decisions but also about the accuracy of their self-evaluations. psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

Check out this👇 amazing new python tool for Bayesian modelling, lead-developed by @nicolaslegrand.bsky.social - it includes (among many other things) all elements of the generalised HGF (arxiv.org/abs/2305.10937) for you to use and apply. Can't wait to see what the community will do with it! 🚀

⚡🧠 👬 👭 Exciting opportunity! Join our newly founded Social Computational Neuroscience lab at UCL as research assistant! Combine ultrasound brain stimulation, neuroimaging, computational modelling to study social decision-making. 🗒️ tinyurl.com/y7ua23rp ⏱️16 July 🔁Please RT.

We are taking applications for a 3-year POSTDOC position on the topic of tracking cognitive dynamics using passive smartphone sensor data, in clinical and non clinical samples with the Neureka app gillanlab.com/join-the-lab/ Closing June 1st. Pls share 🔁👍 or reach out with any informal queries!

Can the time it takes someone to fill in a digital survey tell us something about their cognitive function? 📢 Buckle up, I’ve got a preprint and a thread for you!  osf.io/preprints/ps...

Just a couple of weeks left to apply for this open postdoc position in my lab gillanlab.com/join-the-lab/ on the topic of cognitive fluctuations, with smartphone sensor data and fairly broad scope to make it your own!
