Our team held yesterday’s lab meeting at Travemünde beach, enjoying the Baltic Sea and Hamburg’s maritime spirit as the ‘Gateway to the World.’ 🌊

We are excited to welcome our new student researcher, Selina Taheri! 🎉

New #DHPRLab paper by @senaozayotgonbayar.bsky.social & @wanjawolff.bsky.social together with @corimartarelli.bsky.social, @mbieleke.bsky.social & @jamesdanckert.bsky.social 💪🥳

What a cool format! 🎓

I had a great time as the opponent at Thekla Müller-Boysen’s PhD defense @au.dk. It was a strong defense and made for a fun discussion on boredom & its interpersonal consequences.

Huge thanks to @stepf.bsky.social & team for the invite 🙏

Thanks again for the invitation and the great get-together 😎 That was truly fun talking about research methods, getting carreer advice, and ofc getting to know the typical local food "Frankfurter Grüne Soße" and "Handkäse" - can recommend 😜

Two inspiring days in Frankfurt! 🇩🇪 Many thanks to Prof. Chris Englert & his team at Goethe University for inviting us and organizing a great program. We had an excellent scientific exchange, shared projects & enjoyed the city’s landmarks.

Looking forward to hosting them in Hamburg next year! 🌍🤝

🚀The DocDays are over!📚
Our lab joined forces to write standard operating procedures for our instruments.Biggest win of writing together: Deciding together what-goes-where, with much less hesitation and frustration.🕒💨
Feel free to share what works (or doesn't) for you to make lab docs more useful!💡

It was such a pleasure to host the 2nd DHPRL Garden Party, a chance to celebrate a full and beautiful semester of research and teaching!
Thanks to everyone who made it such a fun and memorable evening. We’re already looking forward to next year! 😊

Sollten wir uns öfter langweilen? - 42 - Die Antwort auf fast alles - Die ganze Doku | ARTE Langeweile hat einen schlechten Ruf. Und löst ein unerträglich dumpfes Gefühl aus. Dem wollen wir um jeden Preis entkommen! Wir greifen zu Alkohol und Drogen, werden aggressiv oder sogar gewalttätig. ...

Such a pleasure to welcome @artefr.bsky.social to @dhprlab.bsky.social 🤩

We‬ talked about boredom & how it shapes our behavior. With cool insights from S. Kraus, @thomasandrillon.bsky.social & @jamesdanckert.bsky.social (who even reveals his boredom coping strategy 🎸)

Had a blast chairing today's session on movement and cognition at the Sports, Medicine and Health Summit in Hamburg. #SMHS

Very cool experience to contribute to such an interdisciplinary event in such a pretty city 😁

Great experience to present the #boredombook today w @corimartarelli.bsky.social at the boredom conference🤩
Thanks to @jamesdanckert.bsky.social for chairing, to the audience for the great discussion & to Josefa Ros for putting it all together 🙏

This week we had another great guest in our #DHPRLab meeting. 🥳

@sgluth.bsky.social from @cmdn-lab.bsky.social took the time to tell us all about computational modeling of decision making. It was a pleasure having you, thank you so much for visiting. ☺️

Was hyped to share some insights into how to navigate through the complex #effort maze @ ASP Conference in Bochum.
Thanks for all the interesting discussions and talks, this was effortful but truly rewarding at the same time!

w/ @wanjawolff.bsky.social & @israelhalperin.bsky.social

We had an awesome guest in our #DHPRLab meeting: @nicoschuck.bsky.social.

Nico told us all about the neural and algorithmic mechanisms of learning, which was both interesting and informative.
Thank you for taking the time! 🙏

Had a great time presenting our ideas on the utility of studying explore-exploit trade-offs in #sports at the ASP Conference in Bochum!

I appreciate the nice turnout - especially for such an early morning session after the social evening 😜🙏

New paper from the lab. 💪🥳

Check out below, if you're interested!

Great news for our lab! Together with our friends from Konstanz, @mbieleke.bsky.social & Julia Schüler, we will investigate how people tackle mental & physical effort in freshly funded @dfg.de project! 💪🧠

🎉 First preprint from my PhD! #excited

We suggest that sport & exercise psych should adopt formal decision models to study how high-stakes contexts and self-regulatory demands shape the explore-exploit trade-off.

Alina Boden, who interned with us last year, has just started a PhD at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg! She’ll study embodied cognitive reserve using behavioral training, advanced MRI, and multivariate analysis. All the best on this exciting path!

Our colleague @elenasmeenk.bsky.social is moving on to new challenges at the Medical School Hamburg! Elena will be joining a Parkinson’s research project and starting her PhD in the field of neurodegenerative diseases. Wishing her all the best on this exciting journey!

Thanks @cmdn-lab.bsky.social for inviting me to chat about our research @dhprlab.bsky.social on the dynamics of human performance regulation 🙏

I greatly appreciate the exchange of ideas & look forward to more table soccer tournaments in the future 🤩

Workshop Time! Since we plan to work more with Git in the future, our colleague Dr. Johannes Keyser held a workshop and introduced us to the functions and how to use it best.

We have a new addition to our lab! 🎉 Last week, we proudly welcomed a Biosen C-Line lactate and glucose meter, which will now support our research. ☺️

A few days ago, Yannick Ramsel visited us for an upcoming article he'll publish at @zeit.de. In the pic, you can see him bravely volunteering as a test subject for that. Stay tuned! 😉 // @katjarewitz.bsky.social

We're excited to welcome Mona Herden as an associated doctoral researcher in our Team. 🎉 In her PhD, she explores how effort preferences shape performance across ages, focusing on children as the foundation for lifelong development, using physiological, developmental, and neuroscientific approaches.

We had an awesome team dinner with guest researcher @mbieleke.bsky.social, who visited us this week. Thanks for your visit and the interesting exchange.
