Cognitive Neuroscientist. @IowaControl guy. #FirstGen
Very grateful to have received this award. I am constantly thankful for the support and opportunities that @uiowa provides for #1stGen students. I am glad we can be a small part of these efforts.
After years of efforts to provide chances for the first generation college students to experience actual neuroscientific research, @Wessel_Lab won an award for outstanding first generation student advocacy. Please join me in congratulating Jan for receiving this precious award!
Happy New Year! Please check out this story the UI grad college wrote about the man/myth/legend @cheolsoh for winning the University of Iowa's Award for Best Doctoral Dissertation. Stoked that he's sticking around a bit as a post-doc! grad.uiowa.edu/news/2024/12/n…
Happy to share our latest study led by @TantanBrainMan and our team @UCSF out today in Nature BME! Movement Responsive AI programmed BCI-aDBS improves naturalistic motion and reduces excessive movements at rest in PD. nature.com/articles/s4155…

Check out our paper ‘Ignoring the cerebellum is hindering progress in neuroscience’ in @TrendsCognSci! With @BangjieWang and @AmandaLeBel3 we quantify the extent of cerebellar exclusion in the neuroimaging literature and discuss reasons/fixes sciencedirect.com/science/articl… 🧵⬇️
New paper by Mario Hervault: Does the stop-signal P3 reflect inhibitory control? Read what R1 described as "one of the best-written, clearest, and most well-argued pieces of work I have reviewed" and R2 tore apart in a 20 point, 3100 word rebuttal. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
There’s bad airlines and then there’s “Slam the boarding door on you and your 2-yr old for being 1(!) minute late after you sprinted through customs, TSA and an entire airport to make up for THEIR delay on the previous 9h leg”-airlines. 6h layover coming, @united strikes again!
Congratulations to our newest PhD, Dr. Yoojeong Choo! @yoojchoo
This note from the 1st recipient of our new scholarship brought a tear to my eye. The Earl K. Miller First Generation Scholarship is given to 1st generation college students at Kent State University. You can contribute. Contact: kent.edu/philanthropy @KentState
If it wasn't for the severe implications this has for lab staff, all you could do is laugh at the NIH paylines at this point.
If you are a member of @CNSmtg , please consider voting for our symposium, organized by Agatha Lenartowicz for the 2025 meeting. Featured speakers would be Agatha, Brad Voytek, Cory Inman, and myself.
VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE SYMPOSIUM! Vote for the Symposium you'd most like to see at the #CNS2025 Annual Meeting. Voting Deadline - October, 28, 2024 For more information visit: cogneurosociety.org/symposium-voti… @CogNeuroNews @CNS_TA
Recently worked with Kirsten and can only imagine what a great mentor she would be! Great chance to train with an amazing scientist in an outstanding psych and neuroscience environment!
I'm recruiting a Ph.D. student for the upcoming school year (Fall 2025). If you are interested in studying the neural bases of attention and working memory, I would love to hear from you! You can submit an application from now through Dec 1, 2024.
