Congratulations to @dominikstrb.bsky.social for defending his PhD thesis 'Inverse normative modeling of continuous perception and action' with distinction, with significant contributions to understanding bounded actors with inverse models, reconciling normative and descriptive models of behavior

My great collaborators and I published a project on rapid eye and hand responses in an interception task. jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx... I like to summarize my papers in Dr. Seuss style 🟩🥚🥚🍔

Happy to announce! Come join us for a great meeting! Check philandneuro.com and join the society :-) #neuroscience #philosophy

Thank you #ECVP2024 it was a blast! Great science and lots of food for thought (and little actual food). See y‘all in Mainz 🇩🇪🎭🍷

If it looks like online control, it is probably model-based control. New preprint on #PsyArXiv, accepted at #CogSci2024 osf.io/preprints/ps...

Finished reading „The Dispossessed“ by Ursula Le Guin. Such a deep book. “No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think.”

I am recruiting two PhD students to work on proprioception in an FWO funded project: www.kuleuven.be/personeel/jo... #sensorimotor Spread the word

In case this is helpful to anyone, I shared this data quality indicator list on OSF: osf.io/t8upr If you are looking for a standardized data cleaning checklist for creating quality data, I've also provided one example here: datamgmtinedresearch.com/clean#clean-...

🚨It's finally out!! 🤩 In Nature Climate Change, we present a highly ambitious vision for how to realize the full potential of behavioral science for climate change mitigation 🌍 I hope you'll like it! #BehSci #ClimateChange #BehSciSky #GreenSky #ClimateAction www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Brain and mind researchers of all types: I hope you'll join this conversation at Cognitive Computational Neuroscience (August 6-9, Boston). I'm envisioning a community-centered conversation unlike any I've seen before; because it's unusual, I unpack it here: www.nicolerust.com/grandplan

Highly recommend 10/10 I wish I could go again 👀
