New review on computational approaches to studying human planning out now in Trends in Cognitive Sciences! Really enjoyed having the opportunity to write something broader about the field with the help of Evan Russek Marcelo Mattar Wei Ji Ma and Griffiths Computational Cognitive Science Lab cell.com/trends/cogniti…

Thrilled to share 🎉 I’ve received my first solo grant 🤗 A 5-year 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 grant to study how #sexualviolence shapes perception & behavior around #socialtouch 💔🫂🧠 Grateful to ISF for the chance to do this important work.

🚨 Thrilled the lab has won the Bereshit ISF grant. We will pursue neurocomputational models of how we plan efficiently using MEG VR and online tasks. This ~1 million USD grant will fund many positions - ads out soon! Sharplabbiu.github.io Bar Ilan University Gonda Brain Research Center

The COCOCOlab at Cornell University is hiring a lab manager. Focus: Computational music cognition Skills: Python, R, machine learning, strong work ethic Role: Run global experiments, develop experiments, grow as a researcher. I’ll be at #ICMPC_SaoPaulo and #CogSci2025—feel free to reach out!

🚨 Fully Funded PhD positions Gonda Brain Institute, Sharp Lab We will explore how people build & deploy world models efficiently for planning & deciding. We will also investigate how world model construal & use is biased in anxiety. Deadline: 1 Sept 2025. Please share!

We also have 🚨2 open PostDoc 🚨 positions for those with strong coding and math backgrounds. See official ad below. Competitive funding for at least 3 years with the option to extend. #cognitivescience #postdoc #computationalneuroscience

New preprint! 🤖🧠 The cost of thinking is similar between large reasoning models and humans 👉 osf.io/preprints/psya… w/ Ferdinando D'Elia, Andrew Lampinen, and Ev (like in 'evidence', not Eve) Fedorenko 🇺🇦 (1/6)

As ChatGPT becomes a go-to tool for students, we’re committed to ensuring it fosters deeper understanding and learning. Introducing study mode in ChatGPT — a learning experience that helps you work through problems step-by-step instead of just getting an answer.

Health is more than the absence of disease, and depends on harmony across multiple systems in the brain and body. We need more research on whole-person health! The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NIH NCCIH)’s mission is to fund vital research in this

Can't wait to do this in our lab soon with our new VR1 !! 🎉🌠

The federal government’s $1B dollar demand is designed for one purpose and one purpose only: to devastate UCLA and its critical mission. #StandUpForUC to defend America’s greatest public university system and support this life-saving work. ucal.us/standupforuc

🚨 Deadline for fully funded PhD & Postdoc positions extended to Sept 15 🚨 We use computational neuroscience methods to understand the mechanisms of decision making and their disruption in psychiatric conditions. Apply on LinkedIn & retweet! linkedin.com/posts/paul-sha…

Hey Marc Demar Somnium Space Got the new VR1 and trying to test on laptop with 4090. Does anyone know how if possible to connect the display port to the gpu-linked USB c port? Adapter currently not working think it may need to be bidirectional. Any help is appreciated!

📣new and paper alert!📣 pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Ever wonder what's the rhythm of speech -- across languages? Maya Inbar and Eitan Grossman and I analysed over 650 recordings from 48 languages, focusing on intonation units—short prosodic phrases that structure speech in time.

Excited to share our new preprint! 🚨 Does human learning have an automatic aspect? Is it possible that we learn things that are counterproductive and only lead to reduced gains? We asked participants to choose cards to win rewards. Some cards had higher chances of winning than

📚 In summer 2023, my book Causal Analysis was published with The MIT Press @mitpress.bsky.social. Just two years later😉 I’m very happy to share that the lecture slides are now freely available in both PDF and LaTeX (as zip files), along with the datasets and R/Python code: 👉 unifr.ch/appecon/en/res…

Looking forward to reading!
