Listened to #9: The SCIENCE of cognit... from The MindTrace Podcast SiriusXM Podcasts mindtrace stitcher.com/s?eid=76297082 How does willpower work and how do underlying factors such as cognitive control and motivation influence it? Dr. Roshan Cools gave a talk about her research.

Cool paper!

I remember discussing this paper during one of our journal club. It immediately grabbed my heart with its task design using Christmas🎄 cartoons to depict conceptual knowledge space. Fig1 science.sciencemag.org/content/352/62…

Happy to share our latest results from lab of Roshan Cools' lab Dr. Hanneke den Ouden as a poster on effect of striatal dopamine on Pavlovian bias: a large [18F]-DOPA PET study. #ViDA2021

Human actions are easily #biased. These biases could #help you accomplish simple tasks and #distract you from your goal at the same time. 🚦 👉blog.donders.ru.nl/?p=14285&lang=…

🧠 What is #PET-scan and what does it measure? Just like a firefly glows when it inhales oxygen, our #brains can #light up 💡 when functioning with the help of PET scans. 👉blog.donders.ru.nl/?p=14548&lang=…

much congrats to Esther Aarts who recently became a full professor in Cognitive Affective Neuroscience at the Donders Institute, Radboud University. You are such a role model to me and to all the female scientists. thanks for your inspiration and the apple 🍎
