🚨Out now in @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social 🚨

We explore the use of cognitive theories/models with real-world data for understanding mental health.

We review emerging studies and discuss challenges and opportunities of this approach.

Really excited to see this out, led by the brilliant @bcdavidson.bsky.social

Reflections on the ‘Science for Social Good’ Satellite Event at CCN 2025 by Georgia Turner The day before the CCN 2025 conference kicked off in Amsterdam, attendees from career stages ranging from pre-PhD students to keynote speakers gathered together for an event focus…

@anne-urai.bsky.social , @weijima.bsky.social , Ili Ma and @tsonj.bsky.social organised an amazing workshop on 'Science for Social Good' at #CCN2025 @cogcompneuro.bsky.social

We wrote a blog reflecting on it:

Looking forward to giving a Contributed Talk at #CCN2025 @cogcompneuro.bsky.social tomorrow on this study!

Come and say hi if you're at the conference, or watch the livestream here (10am BST / 11am CET) 👉 hva-uva.cloud.panopto.eu/Panopto/Page...

Very cool work linking reward learning and social learning 👇

Congratulations!! 👏👏

Using a novel micro-narrative method, we collected ~ 900 first-person accounts of social media harms from young people across the UK and US.

haha thank you! Will do 😎

At #RLDM2025? Come to our workshop on real-world RL tomorrow! Including:
- amazing line-up: @bjornlindstrom.bsky.social, Aaron Heller, Sugandha Sharma, @arossotto.bsky.social + flash talks
- panel debate (chair: @yaelniv.bsky.social)
- group brainstorming session!

Congratulations!!! 👏👏🎉

So well deserved 🎉

Excited to co-host a workshop at @rldmdublin2025.bsky.social with @danmirea.bsky.social & @anadasilvapinho.bsky.social next week!

We will be exploring applications of reinforcement learning to real-world data 🌳 Sign up to our mailing list to receive updates: sites.google.com/view/rlinthe...

🔷New in Biological Psychiatry🔷

**Old Strategies, New Environments: Reinforcement Learning on Social Media**

In this Review, we argue that the computational framework of Reinforcement Learning can help us understand social media behaviour:

www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Nuanced, theoretically-grounded framework for designing social media interventions 👀

Important new study about social media use in vulnerable young people:

@lukasgunschera.bsky.social and I spoke to @adigitaltanay.bsky.social about our work on social media and cognition - have a listen to hear how we ended up here, what we have enjoyed reading & more 📕🎙️

Learning so much at the Amsterdam Complexity School for Climate Change, beyond grateful for the opportunity to hear from such incredible speakers and meet so many kind & motivated people 🤝

Thanks so much! I will email you :)

Important, timely and innovative thinking on the science-policy interface for tech research 👇

Thanks so much! I will DM you now :)

Does anyone know of an available dataset including (1) passively collected data on what Apps are being used in the foreground of one's phone and when, & (2) mental health questionnaire measures (from 1 or many time points)?

Thank you 🙏

Beautiful science metaphor written by Monica Emili Garcia-Segura for @nos-cambridge.bsky.social

Looking forward to speaking at the @mrccbu.bsky.social science night 🔭

One more day to submit an abstract for a flash talk at our RLDM workshop 😎 please share with anyone who would be interested!

🔔Call for abstracts! 🔔

We're inviting applications for flash talks at our workshop on Reinforcement Learning with real-world data at @rldmdublin2025.bsky.social, details below ⚡⚡⚡
