Honored to have been part of this work synthesizing 10 years of adolescent mental health research with the ABCD Study.

1/7 Can infants recognise the world around them? 👶🧠 As part of the FOUNDCOG project, we scanned 134 awake infants using fMRI. Published today in Nature Neuroscience, our research reveals 2-month-old infants already possess complex visual representations in VVC that align with DNNs.

🚨 Job alert🚨 My former lab in Germany led by Daniel Schneider is recruiting a postdoc. Daniel’s research sits at the intersection of memory and attention, and the ideal candidate will have expertise in EEG and/or fMRI.

Taking Action Seriously in the Brain: Revealing the Role of Cognition in Motor Skills Samuel McDougle, a CNS 2026 YIA recipient, studies both how people build motor skills through mental functions like “motor working memory."

From Sam McDougle's love of music has sprung a focus on how people learn and get better at motor skills – an area he sees as sometimes neglected in cognitive neuroscience. Read a new Q&A with him, a preview of his #CNS2026 YIA talk:

New preprint alert🚨

We often rely on 0-10 scales to assess suicide urges in EMA and clinical settings. But we rarely ask a surprisingly important question:

What do these numbers mean?

In our new paper, we examine what these ratings mean and how consistently people use them.

Excited to share our new review “Mapping interactions between adversity and neuroplasticity across development” in @cp-trendscognsci.bsky.social. We discuss how experience - particularly adversity - interacts with neuroplasticity during human development authors.elsevier.com/c/1mB5U4sIRv...

Happy New Preprint Friday!* Thrilled to share new results in collab with Sarah Lichenstein & @yiplab.bsky.social showing our brain's functional connections reflect the environments we grow up in!

Geometric properties of musical scales constitute a representational primitive in melodic processing Uncovering the mental representations underlying symbolic domains is a long-standing goal of cognitive science. Music, a relatively unexplored aspect …

happy to share our newly published paper in
@cp-iscience.bsky.social on the mental representation of musical scales 🎶🧠

for those interested in music, memory representations, symbolic processing, or interdisciplinary science.
