As we continue with mediation and consider our proposed wages, we find it important to see how much the Student Researchers United-UAW @uaw2865 vs the UC has moved on the bargaining table. Our ucmywages.com proposal tracker allows you to easily visualize the disparity in wage movement:

Yay! I am so thrilled to announce our piece, “Confronting racially exclusionary practices in the acquisition and analyses of neuroimaging data” is out today in Nature Neuroscience! (nature.com/articles/s4159…) 1/

Very excited to send my first stress-y paper out into the world! Using behavior, fMRI, and pharmacology, we (Bailey Blume Harris, Nick Turk-Browne, Rajita Sinha, Elizabeth Goldfarb, & I!) show how the stress-related hormone cortisol can *enhance* hippocampal function and memory.

Tremendously grateful to have been a part of this stellar project and thrilled to have it out for folks to read!

ACME lab popped off this week at #LEARNMEM2023 ! Still consolidating the insane amount of cool work shared over the last five days but feeling inspired and stoked about the future of this field! Kudos to all the presenters and organizers for their great work 🤩

As I close in on my first year of grad school, I have a LOT of writing to do in the next month. #AcademicTwitter what're some of the most helpful writing tips or resources you've seen? Aside from having a reference manager and not using twitter to procrastinate...

Tremendously well deserved, congrats, Kim!

Now published at jneurosci.org/content/early/…!

At last, the final version is out! Very excited about the potential implications of this work for the assessment and treatment of disorders of emotion. I’m also excited about our current follow-up studies. Any feedback is most welcome! rdcu.be/doK9K

Proud lab sibling over here! Great work kierkekardashian and David_Clewett

📢 New preprint from David_Clewett & I! We find that people with higher pupil-linked arousal to sounds 👁️ - and greater self-reported trait anxiety - remember overlapping features as more similar than they really are. Check out our discussion & ideas! 💭 osf.io/preprints/psya…

Proud of Erin Morrow for her amazing work on this project! Our findings suggest that unpleasant memories tend to blend together with similar neutral memories in anxious individuals. A riff off a clever memory paradigm by Brice Kuhl Avi Chanales

Thrilled to share this paper on my work in David_Clewett's lab! We provide evidence of a way to weaken negative memories without directly retrieving them: authors.elsevier.com/a/1jWyG_Ebvv8X2 Thanks to my amazing mentor Dave & collaborators Amna, Camille, Ringo Huang, & kierkekardashian!

I’m thrilled to share my very first first-author paper! It’s been a journey, and I’m excited to walk you through our key findings on how our wandering minds impact memory. Ever find yourself zoning out in the middle of a task? That’s mind-wandering, and while it might seem

My first, first-author empirical paper is now out in a special issue of Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience! 🧠 link.springer.com/article/10.375… Much thanks to my great mentor David_Clewett for entrusting me with this project!
