Excited to share our new paper in npj Journals Complexity! We propose a unified, multiscale model of skill acquisition—linking moments to decades. Ideated at the Santa Fe Institute -James S. McDonnell Foundation conference research jam, and years (many revisions) later, it’s finally out. nature.com/articles/s4426…

Mastering a skill can take decades, but the learning process unfolds across multiple timescales, from mere moments to days. A new paper by three former SFI postdoctoral fellows presents a theoretical model of nested timescales of learning, offering a unified, multi-scale account
