So proud. Introducing Drs @huwjarvis.net and Bridgitt Shea.

Looking forward to presenting our new "two sheet" cortico-hippocampal neural field and neural mass models

The pink elephant test: what your visual imagination predicts about your ability to control your thoughts Research shows people with more vivid visual imaginations may also be more prone to certain kinds of intrusive thoughts.

A report on our New Study: Don’t think of a Pink Elephant!

Aphants, and people with low vividness imagery, may be resistant to intrusive visualisations!

Happy to share that my PhD ‘Computational mechanisms underlying effort and reward valuation in the human brain’ passed @monashuniversity.bsky.social Huge thanks to @trevorchong.bsky.social constant support and mentorship, with crucial assists from Mark Bellgrove and @robbrutledge.bsky.social 🧠🥳🍾🙏

Is perceptual novelty important in your research? We created, standardised, and validated a database of truly novel perceptual stimuli (matched to BOSS objects on size, contrast, luminance & colourfulness) so you don't have to! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Passed without corrections, might I add! A superlative thesis, Huw. Thanks for allowing me the pleasure of supervising.

The Australasian Cognitive Neuroscience Society is now on Bluesky: @acnsau.bsky.social. And just in time for our annual conference in Newcastle next week! #neuroskyence

Delighted to share our brief Letter to the Editor of PNAS in which we suggest that a key computational (mis)step underlying punishment insensitivity may be a failure to strengthen no-go action weights. w @trevorchong.bsky.social

Short new paper: The ebb and flow of cognitive fatigue

I highlight the new findings by @quining.bsky.social et al. and I reflect on the current state of fatigue science. #psychscisky #cogsci #psychology

🧵Little thread with the main points: (1/6)

Computational mechanisms underlying the dynamics of physical and cognitive fatigue The willingness to exert effort for reward is essential but comes at the cost of fatigue. Theories suggest fatigue increases after both physical and c…

Our manuscript on computational mechanisms underlying the dynamics of physical and cognitive fatigue:

The ebb and flow of cognitive fatigue If you are currently feeling tired, you are not alone: feelings of fatigue are incredibly common. In a recent study, Matthews et al. investigated mome…

Thanks for the kind review, @erikbij.bsky.social!
