Honoured to have been elected as the inaugural Vice President of the newly formed Australian Society for Mathematical Psychology. Looking forward to working with an excellent executive team!

Woohoo congrats Dr Erin!

This may be the best lab meeting we've ever had! 😍 Thank you to Jess and Zachary L Howard for bringing our newest (and favourite!) little CogLab members along!

Finally some good news

Bit late on promoting this one but myself and some colleagues have taken steps to develop a computational model (based on the Diffusion) that can be analytically derived an applied in "real-time" across trials. Some cool applications could follow! psyarxiv.com/4wq9r/

Before Twitter devours itself I can plug one more paper. This one is special as it is the first one I've published with no "senior" author, just myself, Alex Thorpe, and Elizabeth Fox. We show cognitive workload can alter the nature of cognitive processes! link.springer.com/article/10.100…
