If you have ever or ever plan to receive NSF funding for Psychological & Brain sciences research, this directly impacts your work. #psychsky #academicsky

My brilliant collaborator and desk buddy Simran has just published her first solo-authored paper on #misophonia! This paper is a must read for anyone who suffers from the sounds of chewing. guilfordjournals.com/doi/10.1521/...

Great resources for navigating application season. Good luck mentees, you've got this! open.spotify.com/show/7wiefMK...

Hello Bluesky! 👋 We're a university access charity who believe every child should have the opportunity to pursue higher education. We work with UK schools and universities, mobilising the PhD community to support less advantaged students to access the most competitive universities and succeed.

Another blow to hustle culture quoting my colleague, the amazing Dr. Giulia Poerio!

great thread! academia is all about the balance of knowledge consumption versus production. what does it mean to be an "expert" in your field in an era where the internet "knows" all?

Hey #academicsky, what is your best tip for staying on top of new literature?? 👩‍💻 I just started using Stork for weekly pub round-ups 📓 So far I like it better than google scholar alerts because of the keyword features, but I'm also open to any new tools & suggestions!🕵️ ⬇️ www.storkapp.me?ref=560128

Just signed up as a mentor for this fabulous program! Remember how stressful applying to grad school is? Give back to other grad students by helping them with their applications.

We built the openESM database: ▶️60 openly available experience sampling datasets (16K+ participants, 740K+ obs.) in one place ▶️Harmonized (meta-)data, fully open-source software ▶️Filter & search all data, simply download via R/Python Find out more: 🌐 openesmdata.org 📝 doi.org/10.31234/osf...

🚨🚨🚨 The Subjectivity Lab is looking for a lab manager! The position is available immediately. We want someone who can help coordinate our large sample fMRI study, plus other behavioral work. Because *gestures at everything* the job was approved only now (ends in June 2026). Great opportunity! 🧵 1/4

does someone good at coding & analysis want to work remotely w/ us in the coming few months (before end of 2025), as a paid consultant? project will be on neurofeedback (fMRI, ECoG, calcium imaging). we'll work towards developing the experiments & analysis pipelines together. if so pls DM me ur CV🧠📈

Test-driven development and AI-assisted coding - the latest in my Better Code, Better Science series, just in time for my Neurohackademy talk on AI-assisted coding later this morning! russpoldrack.substack.com/p/test-drive...

NeuroHackademy 2025 started today! Our 10th summer school/hackathon in neuroimaging and data science @uwescience.bsky.social, the 8th supported by NIH/NIMH. You can follow along, with videos of lectures in this YouTube playlist, posted almost as soon as they happen: youtube.com/playlist?lis...

the rare paper in which authors can describe their own work as "strange," "trippy," "crazy," or "bonkers" 😂

Looking forward to attending IMRF next month (and sharing my poster on synesthesia) after dreaming of attending this conference for years. Always eager to support other researchers in the same niche. Let's schedule a coffee & chat!! 🧠☕✨

If you teach cognitive psychology or related topics & are willing to share your favorite teaching resources (e.g., demos, videos), please reply to/quote this post, tag me in a new post, or send me email. I'll compile them, share the list, & keep updating it this summer. Let's inspire each other!

My Canadian university, Queen's, is offering TWENTY 4-year funded PhDs (40k CAD/yr) for a student of ANY citizenship who has been accepted at a top 100 US university but have had offer rescinded OR are reconsidering offer due to US policy. Details found here👇 www.queensu.ca/grad-postdoc...

I posted this article about my student's grant cancellation this morning. A few minutes ago, I learned that another very talented student in my lab had their funding cancelled too. I'm heartbroken -- not just about my students, but the future of science. darbysaxbe.substack.com/p/my-student...

🚨 A new rule would let career scientists like NSF/NIH program officers be replaced by political appointees Already 14,000+ public comments, deadline is Friday 📣 Comments can be short. Courts consider them—and scientists with NSF/NIH experience are especially impactful Speak up! shorturl.at/WKuBj

Are you a US scientist thinking of quitting the States for Europe? Would you be willing to talk about it — anonymity is possible? Send me a DM. (Please reskeet if you have US contacts!)

I know this site only reaches a subset of neuro/ cog professors. If you know a young professor in the area who would benefit from a week of targeted learning about doing good science, good mentoring, networking etc, it would be great if you could forward them: compneurosci.com/Neuro4Pros/i...

Our language neuroscience lab (evlab.mit.edu) is looking for a new lab manager/FT RA to start in the summer. Apply here: tinyurl.com/3r346k66 We'll start reviewing apps in early Mar. (Unfortunately, MIT does not sponsor visas for these positions, but OPT works.)

Did someone say the IMRF submission portal is open? Oooh yeah! You heard it - send us your symposium proposals by February 14; talk/poster proposals by March 14 📝 More information, submission templates, and submission instructions on: imrf2025.sciencesconf.org We cannot wait to read them!
