Happy to announce that our paper is now published in Science Advances! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Some clarifications below about what is and isn’t new about this work:

New paper out today in PNAS 🎉 demonstrating: 1) an association btw social disadvantage & child brain function can be observed at birth 2) these alterations are 🧠-wide, but most pronounced in functional networks & subcortex linked to childhood adversity doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

[Taking a break from bouts of 🤯 😑😩 to be...] Happy that our paper is now officially out in the latest issue of TICS: go.illinois.edu/Lee2025_TICS and highlighted with beautiful cover art by Ally Dworetsky Check 👇 for a quick summary

Our language neuroscience lab (evlab.mit.edu) is looking for a new lab manager/FT RA to start in the summer. Apply here: tinyurl.com/3r346k66 We'll start reviewing apps in early Mar. (Unfortunately, MIT does not sponsor visas for these positions, but OPT works.)

NEW: The N.I.H. will cut about $4 Billion from federal research grants that support cancer, virus and heart disease research. #Project2025 called for the cuts to end subsidies to "leftist" university agendas. nytimes.com/2025/02/07/us/…

This is horrible for science and for the country.

From the other site. It's harder to see the impact here since so many scientists fled, but the NIH cuts are having a real impact. Whole labs are shutting down, careers are ending. Pediatric cancer research ffs.

Collecting an extensive publicly available dataset on 4 inhibitory control tasks, Caterina Gratton et al. show that more than 1000 trials/participant are necessary to reduce within-subject variability and improve the reliability of the congruency effect. nature.com/articles/s4156…
