🙌🏼 this what we need to see from universities!
In this period of uncertainty, the University will fund research that is subject to stop-work orders or the federal funding freeze, President Schill and Board of Trustees Chair Peter Barris announced today. ▶️ spr.ly/60152zZAv

Really excited for my laboratory's first-ever trip to @Psychonomic_Soc in NYC! (I have also never been, so we are all first-timers). We are presenting three posters with different lines of research from our lab. We would love to chat with many of you about our work! 1/
In new work with Eric Du's lab at UF, my lab has been having discussions about how to improve trust calibration and optimize joint decisions with AI agents. We have some thoughts on these topics that we would love feedback on: osf.io/preprints/psya…
We did have a great + fun day sharing with the lab and experiencing new adventures !! Thanks @UFRecSports !!
Many thanks to @UFRecSports for hosting members of my laboratory on the High Ropes course at Lake Wauburg on Monday! It was a great way to spend our Veteran's Day holiday, and your student guides did an amazing job. 1/
