Evidence for dlPFC contribution to #memory suppression using #TMS! Now accepted @jocn.bsky.social. Great team effort and collaboration with Gesa Hartwigsen’s lab @mpicbs.bsky.social‬. We also had an exemplary experience at the journal with editors @barense.bsky.social‬ & @bradpostle.bsky.social‬.

To my complete surprise, our Nature Reviews Neuroscience review on the Brain Mechanisms Underlying the Inhibitory Control of Thought has landed on the cover! Cover art below! For an "explainer thread", see earlier tweet. bsky.app/profile/memo...

Much looking forward - hoping to see you there! @biodgps-dgpa.bsky.social

Hey fellows of the Psychonomic Society! Two grad students in my lab would be keen to present @ #psynom25 @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social. Would any of you be able and willing to sponsor the submission of their poster abstracts? (Caveat: They would need a sponsor letter in time for today's deadline.)

I’m looking for a postdoc and RA for an ERC-funded project “SLEEPAWAY: Forgetting unwanted memories in sleep”. You’ll use MEG/EEG and fMRI to understand how the sleeping brain remembers and forgets. PLEASE REPOST 😊

Behavioral interventions motivate action to address climate change | PNAS Mitigating climate change requires urgent action at individual, collective, and institutional levels. However, individuals may fail to act because ...

What motivates people to take action and share info about climate change? We tested 17 psychological interventions in a tournament—Discover the winners in our new paper! Out now in @pnas.org w/ @falklab.bsky.social, @michaelemann.bsky.social, & team. Thread ⤵️ 1/9

Ever wondered how imagining prospective events helps us make farsighted decisions? Our preprint w/@heidrunschultz.bsky.social elucidates how it affects delay discounting. It notably reveals that the same mechanism can also nudge us towards more impulsive choices. @mpicbs.bsky.social @colorado.edu

Wonderful news - congratulations Karen! 🎆🥳 Any goals left in life ;)?

Happy 30th birthday year to SPM!! 🎈🍰

To get the party started, we are delighted to announce SPM 25.01, a major new version of the open-source neuroimaging software.

Read the preprint to discover what's new arxiv.org/pdf/2501.12081 and download SPM for free from Github github.com/spm/spm/rele...

Are there dates yet for 2026? After missing out this year, would love to return to #ABIM2026.

Bad Sleep Lets Intrusive Thoughts Flood In Findings reveal the memory-related brain processes that generate unwanted thoughts when people are sleep deprived

Why do we suffer from more intrusive thoughts when we're sleep deprived? Find out in this SciAm article on our latest work by @rachelnuwer.bsky.social, featuring @zarabergstrom.bsky.social and @marwimber.bsky.social www.scientificamerican.com/article/bad-...

Can someone forget much of their life? Yes! In Psychogenic amnesia, extreme stress leads to the loss of years of memories, including all the people the patient knows. Why? Read about what we have discovered in @laura-marsh.bsky.social‬ 's new paper or in the outstanding thread below #neuroskyence

I just signed the letter and hope that the MRC will maintain this extraordinary research environment. Closing the units with all their huge added value would be a great loss for science at large.

Dr. Ann-Kristin Meyer, celebrating the defense of her thesis. Wearing the traditional German doctor hat crafted by her peers.

Congratulations to the awesome Dr. Ann-Kristin Meyer, who defended her thesis on memory suppression with flying colors - summa cum laude! How lucky we were to have her in the Adaptive Memory Lab back at @mpicbs.bsky.social! Find some of AK's work at elifesciences.org/articles/71309, w/ more to come.

Good old "Elements of Style".

Peer reviews can vary from harsh and demoralizing to constructive and kind. How can we make sure the peer reviews we write fall into the latter group?

Join us for this virtual workshop w/ @blackinneuro.bsky.social to learn about the dos and don'ts of effective & constructive peer reviews!

Congratulations, Gordon!

GEM 2025: Generative episodic memory: interdisciplinary perspectives from neuroscience, psychology and philosophy. June 2 - 4, 2025. Graphic shows a person remembering the same event at different times in their life and illustrates how memories change over time. In this case the person remembers studying as a university student.

How can we motivate action to address climate change? We tested 17 psych interventions at once in a tournament! @falklab.bsky.social

If you’re attending #psynom24, come to my talk from 11:40-12 TOMORROW (11/22) to find out the winning strategies! Marquis B-C!

Congratulations, Ken!

Hey Aidan, can you please add me to my fellow nerds?

Would love to be added!

Hey, anybody here?
