Prof Jennifer Bussell discovered that rodents *really* like an informational heads-up about how much water they'll get soon. Even give up a large of % water for this information. PS informational choice is well predicted from OFC recording #CISE2025 jenniferbussell.org/cv/

Prof Caroline Charpentier (@caltech postdoc) shows Bayesian model evidence about advice-taking and confirmation bias sldlab.umd.edu #CISE2025

After 5 years, I finally carved out time to turn this blog post on FDR (markallenthornton.com/blog/fdr-pro...) into a manuscript. The preprint features a much broader range of simulations showing how FDR promotes confounds, and how this effect compounds with publication bias: osf.io/preprints/ps...
