And wrapping up #SNE2024, our multi-talented clinical fellow Dr. @morkehb did an amazing job presenting our work on test-retest reliability of utility and confidence parameters in a risky decision-making task!

New paper!🚨📝 Paper: tinyurl.com/2cycsy6d Press release: tinyurl.com/yur3j2n8 How the 🧠 engages in change-of-mind decisions taps into cognitive biases that depend on sensitivity to sunk costs & regret - both of which may contribute to negative rumination…however🧵👇1/6

Shoutout to our phenomenal postbac @chaeffner12 for her presentation on choice stochasticity and cognitive imprecision across value tasks, with @MBarrettoGarcia and @CateHartley #SNE2024

Incredibly proud of our postbac Corey Plate presenting our work on domain generality of metacognition across perceptual and value-based decision-making. My first (scientific) collab with @CMZiemba ;) #SNE2024

I'm thrilled and honored to have received the 2024 Director's New Innovator Award from @NIH_CommonFund !! Excited for what's to come at Cuesta Lab! Thanks to all my mentors and students! @RutgersU @RutgersSAS #NIHHighRisk
Early-stage investigators proposed #innovative high-impact research ideas for the @NIHDirector’s New Innovator Award. See the projects the awardees will pursue: commonfund.nih.gov/newinnovator/A… #NIHHighRisk
We hosted the "2nd Colombian Neurodiáspora Meeting at #SfN24." on Oct 7th, 2024‼️ Thanks to the support of the 🇨🇴Consul in Chicago, Mr. Diego Angulo Marínez and his team, we had a fantastic opportunity to celebrate our community's achievements,👇
Can't be more proud!! Massive congrats to our postdoc @shawnrhoadsphd for winning this award, which will help launch his independent career soon!! 👏🥳🔥 #computationalpsychiatry #socialneuroscience @SinaiCCP @SinaiBrain @IcahnMountSinai
I am thrilled, honored, & grateful to be a recipient of this year's NIH Director's Early Independence Award @NIH_CommonFund #NIHHighRisk I will be launching my research lab soon, so please stay tuned for announcements & opportunities to get involved! commonfund.nih.gov/highrisk/highl…
My greatest scientific mentor, Warren Bickel, has passed away. Warren was my grad advisor and the most creative scientist I’ve ever worked with. I consider him the greatest addiction scientist of his generation. His contributions are staggering.
Acabamos de publicar con mi buen amigo Eduardo Ferraz un artículo en JEBO. 🥳 Aquí está el artículo: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Y aquí un resumen: linkedin.com/pulse/aversi%C…
Delighted to share a preprint of our chapter on pain and value-based decision-making with @laurenatlas for the forthcoming book “Neuroeconomics: Core Topics and Current Directions”. osf.io/preprints/psya… So fun to review this literature and think about future studies!
Delighted to see @toreerdmann's study out in @JAMAPsych: Amygdala Reactivity, Antidepressant Discontinuation, and Relapse jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…. Amygdala reactivity to faces increases with antidepressant discontinuation mostly in those who then go on to relapse. @_HenrikWalter
Excited to announce a postdoc position to use EEG+RL to identify specific mechanisms of different antidepressants within a large clinical trial tinyurl.com/4nuv6pvu. Come work with a super team acplab.org. @UCL @UCLPsychiatry @wellcometrust @UCLIoN @MPC_CompPsych
