Humans are incredibly adept at asking for and providing help. But what cognitive mechanisms underlie these behaviors? In my #CogSci23 talk, I discuss a novel game and modeling framework to understand helping! 📍 Jul 29, 13:50 - 15:10 AEST 📃 bit.ly/kcogsci CogSci Society

Was such a fun experience working on this "many labs" project with @kj_vanengen and Violet Brown. Learned a lot about speech and collaborative science!

after a long hiatus I'm glad to be attending #cogsci23 in-person in Sydney! my graduate student Jazton will be presenting a poster about communities in phonological networks in Dutch, French, German, and Spanish - come and say hi to us this Saturday 1150-1350 [P3-W-331-1447]

PhD students! You need a website! Your department website isn’t good enough. And LinkedIn is a nightmare. Even if you’re not on the market yet, create a simple website so I can find you when I Google your name trying to offer you a job.

Super bummed about not being able to attend #CogSci23 in person this year but instead I got to see my first #cogsci mentor who helped me start this fascinating and rewarding journey and always encouraged me to seek out interdisciplinary perspectives! 🥰🌸
