Oops I did it again 🤭

Welcome to the UAW!! #StandUpUAW

From PhD office mates to having the honor of attending Camilla Nord's book event 10 years later, how time flies!! Congrats again, you're a legend (and write the best notes 😂).
For those of you who want a copy, it's now available in the US!

I really hope this happens and fast! Currently I am not allowed to pay postdocs more than the NIH minimum even though I have the budget for it, since (unless I am mistaken) our college BSOS @ UMD uses the current NIH scales as both a minimum AND a maximum 🤯!

Delighted to have the opportunity to attend the inaugural France Science summit in DC, a great opportunity to connect with other French researchers in the US!

Vote for our symposium “Leveraging social cognitive neuroscience tools to characterize heterogeneity in Autism Spectrum Disorder” with 🤩dream team 🤩 Gabriela Rosenblau Dorit Kliemann and Dr. Caroline Charpentier!!

🚨 Preprint Alert 🚨
Amazing work by an amazing mentee Qianying Wu (the first of many I am sure!)

I have finally made it to 'the other place'. If you are there, you can find me at carocharp.bsky.social!

📢I am looking for a postdoc to work on the cognitive neuroscience of self-beliefs at Institut du Cerveau - Paris Brain Institute 🤩🧠✨ - details here: marionrouault.weebly.com/uploads/4/5/7/… informal inquiries are welcome & RT is appreciated 🙏

I’m quite used to the cruelty students can face when they apply for a US visa but this one broke me. We offered admission to a stellar, talented & hardworking student. After months of work and hundreds of dollars, an embassy officer saw him for 5 mins & said no. why? …

Our review is out! We highlight how our social learning framework can help specify and quantify social psychopathology across clinical disorders. Big thanks to my coauthors Christoph Korn and Koen Frolichs sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Excited to finally attend my first in-person SANS conference in (so far foggy) Santa Barbara! I'll be presenting some new data identifying biases in trust learning and social risk-taking tomorrow 4/28 at 11:30am. #SANS2023

I'll be looking for opportunities in brain-machine interfaces, neurotech and data science in the NYC area near the end of 2023, whether in industry or academia. If you have any leads, please reach out!
