I'm very excited to share a preprint from a passion project I've been working on this past year! This came out of trying to work through two puzzles that have been bothering me for a while, and which are at the core of almost everything most of us study. osf.io/preprints/psya…

So it’s embarrassing this is the first time I’ve ever read it, and it may well be old news, but the Introduction of the DSM covers essentially all of the key points in the case for HiTOP..? A short thread of quotes that jumped out at me 🧵

Find problems in science that deeply interest you, and seek the tools and ideas that you think will help you solve them. I try to do this in my work and will ensure this is a pillar of my lab and my mentorship. Here's how I've followed this north star so far in my career and how

In PNAS, Timothy Allen, PhD & colleagues report findings that suggest the default network plays a critical role in monitoring our social experience and helping us to adjust our strategy toward others. bit.ly/3ZwmP3Z
