📢Exciting job opportunity! 🧠 My lab is searching for a Research Assistant to work with computational modelling and neuroimaging to study the mechanisms of compulsivity 🔗Apply here: cis7.bbk.ac.uk/vacancy/resear… 🗓️ Closing date 16th July 🔁 Please retweet / share
Started as a lab rotation project, and thanks to @karolisdegutis' dedication and drive, it’s now the first layer-fMRI paper from our lab! Stay tuned for more exciting things to come soon...
Congrats on our team's new @Nature_NPJ digital medicine paper! Amazing work by co-first authors @JKim_1003 and @KimberlyLe24427 We found large language models outperform mental & medical health care professionals in identifying #OCD see Jiyeong's thread & rdcu.be/dOit4
Unfortunately, there is, on average, a 17-year delay between the onset of #OCD symptoms & treatment initiation. We wondered if LLMs could help assist clinicians in timely diagnosis; as a first step, we tested vignettes: see our new @Nature_NPJ publication rdcu.be/dOit4
New opportunity to do a PhD w/ myself @bbkpsychology and Benedetto De Martino @UCL_ICN to develop new methods for individual-level description of neurocomputational mechanisms! 🧠 If you are interested, apply for @LIDO_DTP bbk.ac.uk/student-servic…. Deadline is 25h July! Please 🔁
I am delighted to see this published. Many years in the making and only possible thanks to the unwavering determination of @AGonzalezRueda. Thanks to all lab members and collaborators involved!
Our latest paper is out @Nature!! 🧵1/4 By exploiting the genetic identity of premotor neurons in the SC, Self-inactivating Rabies, in vivo ephys and computational modelling, we challenged the current view on sensorimotor alignment. nature.com/articles/s4158… @MRC_LMB @martripodi
🧠 Exciting opportunity! Join our newly founded Social Computational Neuroscience lab @EP_UCL as research assistant! 🔬 Combine ultrasound brain stimulation, neuroimaging, computational modelling to study social decision-making. 📒 tinyurl.com/y7ua23rp ⏳ 16 July 🔁 Please RT
Postdoctoral Research Associate position available with @ThomasCBooth and me, to develop and validate an AI tool for automatic triaging of @Hyperfine portable ultra-low-field MRI brain scans of patients into normal and abnormal: kcl.ac.uk/jobs/089745-po… | @KingsImaging @KingsIoPPN

At @bbkpsychology, we’re recruiting two new permanent Lecturers. We’re especially interested in recruiting in cognitive neuroscience and/or computational modelling 🧠 If you’d like to know about life & science at Birkbeck - please get in touch! cis7.bbk.ac.uk/vacancy/lectur…
So proud of @Lidia_Ripoll_S and the whole team for this beautiful seminal work!

Postdoc job alert! We have an opening in our growing group. The research will focus on neuroimaging of memory and goal-directed decision-making, with 🧠 decoding of representations with MEG (+ RL, mood, and computational psychiatry) @ the exciting @MPC_CompPsych @WCHN_UCL
🌟Come and do a PhD with me, @mattos96 @LiviaSimela @JoeBarnby! 🌟 We have a project available through the @KingsIoPPN MRC DTP, focusing on top-down modulation of responses to aversive stimuli, see below for more details and reach out if interested! kcl-mrcdtp.com/project/self-a…
We have a new paper out led by @Miek_cam with @BJSahakian, showing people with OCD display different forms of inflexible behavior as a function of uncertainty, medication, and the need to avoid punishment sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Can ketamine alleviate OCD symptoms? @CRodriguezMDPhD of @Stanford sheds light on the topic. We also cover the MDMA for OCD, how the "OCD brain" works, and why therapy might or might not be needed. Tune in! businesstrip.fm/podcast/episod…
