Happy to announce a #BCCCD24 pre-conference workshop 'Advances in infant neuroscience: What state-of-the-art imaging can reveal about the developing mind?' with wonderful Laurie Bayet @[email protected] Jessica Dubois Tristan Yates Moritz Koster (infant-neuroscience.github.io/getting-started) Details in🧵Please RT 1/n

Excited to present this work today with Anna Vannucci and the DAN LAB on adolescents' emotion differentiation at #AffectScience2024. Looking forward to seeing you there and hearing your feedback!

Take a tea break and explore our commentary to learn about the systems that harm trans people, how this affects research, and actionable ways to support trans people in STEMM cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

A dream position!

“We need to not put such emphasis on the individual,” O’Donnell argues, & instead advocate for structural & policy changes including increased funding for research into maternal health. The ultimate goal should be to support parents before, during, & after pregnancy…” 👏👏👏

I'm starting a lab! This summer I'll join both the cognitive and developmental areas in the Psychology department at UNC Chapel Hill. I'm excited for and humbled by the opportunity. Here's a sneak peak at the lab: cogdevlab.org

My first (postdoc) fMRI paper is out! Together with the amazing Dr. Bridget Callaghan, who initiated and designed this project to begin with, and DAN LAB, we show parental buffering effects on youth' amygdala and mPFC during fear learning. Specifically: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/de…

A great new piece on infant neuroscience, from two of the best: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Super excited to announce that I'll be joining Temple University as an assistant professor of Psychology and Neuroscience! The Vision Learning and Development Lab will officially open its doors in Summer 2025! vlad-lab.com

How am I supposed to concentrate on work as the world burns, babies are killed, protesters are brutalized, and the Supreme Court hears arguments about whether my life is important enough to save in the event something goes terribly wrong with my pregnancy?

The best lab to work at. Highly recommended!

New paper with Sarah Hye-yeon Lee, Brynn Sherman, and Anna Papafragou, in which we explore how people's mental timelines are shaped by event structure -- using popular TV shows to examine shared memories across months and even *years*! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

1/ Beyond thrilled to see this paper out in the world! Here we call for the integration of developmental neuroscience research with community-engaged research approaches to address mental health outcomes for youth experiencing housing insecurity doi.org/10.1016/j.dcn.… 🧵

Hopping back on to Twitter/X to say that if you are interested in asking deep questions about cognition and development in your PhD, this lab is right for you. Sami is a fantastic mentor and scientist — could not recommend more highly!

Off to Baltimore we go!! Come see me (and my 2 month old!) at #flux2024. I’ll be presenting work from my postdoc DCN Lab Columbia looking at associations between maternal unpredictability, mother-infant synchrony, and limbic brain structure during Sunday evening’s poster session!

Wow 🤩 Rhodri Cusack et al. 2024.ccneuro.org/pdf/380_Paper_…

Early Caregiver Predictability Shapes Neural Indices of Statistical Learning Later in Infancy! Out today in Dev. Science 🙂 A team effort (!) w/ coauthors incl. DCN Lab Columbia Dr. Laurel Gabard-Durnam Sarah McCormick Nwabisa Mlandu, Michal Zieff and @KirstyDonald onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/de…

Tomorrow morning at #SfN2024 I’ll be sharing preliminary results from my first infant fMRI project! Stop by my poster “Hippocampal contributions to relational memory in human infants” at U34 (Tuesday 8-12) to say hi and learn more 👋🧠
