A Penn team worked with @Wikimedia to analyze the browsing habits and curiosity styles of over 480,000 people across 50 countries. The study was led by led by @DaniSBassett & @neuro_dz with contributions from @sppatankar. #PennBioengineering Read more: bit.ly/3YoclBs
Made some great family memories this year for halloween 🥰-- we spent about a gazillion hours making paper maché and felt costumes of his favorite characters from "my singing monsters" (my son, wife, and I are rare, epic, and common grumpyres 🦇🎃👻). #MSMSpooktacle2024
Spotted in the Holocaust Museum: Early Warning Signs of Fascism. Anything on this list sound like Trump to you?
When we anticipate the future, the brain shows graded representations of the future & past. The scale of these representations increases systematically from lower- to higher-order regions. Proud of this work by @hannahtstoll, a collab w/ @ChrisBaldassano! nature.com/articles/s4146…
Thrilled to see our paper on conversation & “the self” out in @PNASNews. The brilliant @c_welk & @thaliawheatley were a joy to work with on this! Check out first-author @c_welk’s thread below! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
So excited to introduce this new work from myself, @ThaliaWheatley , and @meghanlmeyer out now in @PNASNews! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
Excited to share a new project! 🎉🎉 doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… How do we navigate between brain states when we switch tasks? Are dynamics driven by control, or passive decay of the prev task? To answer, we compare high-dim linear dynamical systems fit to EEG and RNNs🌀 ⏬
The 2024 #NobelPrize laureates in chemistry Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have successfully utilised artificial intelligence to predict the structure of almost all known proteins. In 2020, Hassabis and Jumper presented an AI model called AlphaFold2. With its help, they have…
BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”
Our retrodicting vs predicting movie events paper is finally out! We didn't think about "conversation" at first, but it turns out that conversation references play a major role in how we "infer" unobserved events in other people's lives.
Now out in @NatureComms (lead: @Xu_Xinming)! How do conversations shape how (and what) people guess about the unknown past and future (e.g., in other people's lives)? Paper/code/data: nature.com/articles/s4146…

Fun writeup of one of our group's recent papers (pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…)-- thanks @PsyPost!
New research uncovers how the brain dynamically shifts its activity in response to mental challenges, revealing surprising insights into its adaptability. The study sheds light on a hidden mechanism that helps optimize our cognitive abilities in real time. dlvr.it/TDQbRC

“In our polarized America, where what people will accept as fact is based as much on tribal affiliation as on evidence, universities have an opportunity—indeed, a duty—to be an illuminating objective force,” Dartmouth President @sianbeilock writes: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
This past week, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals denied Robert Roberson's appeal and motion for stay of execution, despite new evidence showing his daughter died from natural causes, not homicide. We must stop Texas from carrying out #RobertRoberson’s execution on Oct. 17— add…
