Our last #COVID19 patient has just left and we are closing our last COVID19 ICU. Thank you to my team, to our patients and to their families, to my hospital colleagues, to the ICU network. And don't worry everyone, we will be here and ready, but for today: thank you and stay safe

New from the lab by Yanfang Xia 夏艳芳 Filip Melinscak in Behav Res Methods: Saccadic scan path length/speed during CS as indicator of human fear conditioning. Effect size (Hedge's g) 0.4-0.6. Underlying mechanism: more and longer fixation on screen centre during CS+. doi.org/10.3758/s13428…

1/ New from the lab in Nature Human Behaviour, with Filip Melinscak, @smfleming and Manuel Völkle: how to optimise measurement of experimental dependent variables across fields of psychology. nature.com/articles/s4156…

Very happy to share our new modelling paper with bachlab and Dan Bush, in which we propose a possible mechanism for how anxiolytic medications can reduce fear/anxiety (spoiler: by disrupting threat <-> location associations) ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Didn't age well.

New paper online. Lucky to have worked on this with the awesome Mariana Zurita and @bendemartino. Two years well spent - thank you both 🤍

Every scientist knows this guy

Today is our official start at the new Hertz Chair for Artificial Intelligence and Neuroscience Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn. Looking forward to working with brilliant colleagues, and very honoured by this warm welcome: uni-bonn.de/en/news/062-20…

New behavioural methods paper by brilliant Jelena Wehrli with Yanfang Xia 夏艳芳 and Samuel Gerster: best way to measure long-interval (15 s) human trace fear conditioning (pupil dilation and SCR), and its retention after 7 days (startle eye-blink). onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ps…

everybody: Where are you from in Italy? me: Sicily almost everybody: Ah, Sicily = Mafia! 30 years after prosecutor Borsellino's killing the time is ripe to explain to my international friends why this “joke” is not funny (even if I understand why: so no hard feelings!) 1/n

Is model misspecification the biggest challenge for modern SBI algorithms? In our new work, we show that many neural SBI techniques can fail dramatically when simulators are even slightly misspecified. For details, see arxiv.org/abs/2209.01845
