Our mission is to understand the neural dynamics that give rise to human cognition, with a focus on individual differences and cognitive architectures.
Out this week in bookstores:
'The Neuroscience of You' by @ChantelPratPhD.
A truly exceptional new popular neuroscience book. It is beautifully written, smart as hell, and funny.

Thank you @NautilusMag for publishing one of the key Take Aways from #TNOY For those of you looking for a sample, check this out! https://t.co/pQLUdMBLph
"Caught in this cycle of wondering and knowing, one can iterate their way through life, feeling more curious, and possibly even more clueless, with each new day." @ChantelPratPhD on exploring the unknown. https://t.co/hjuiY7Ei46
I’m so JAZZED to announce my book events! For those in the Pacific Northwest, @jevinwest and I will be at @ElliottBayBooks August 3 at 7:00pm. Then @TheRealDrDre2 and I will head down to @Powells on August 9th at 7:00pm. Please come out and bring your 🧠 questions!
New paper out in Cognitive Science from CCDL co-directors and former postdoc Lauren Graham shows that differences in the basal ganglia’s “Indirect” or “Avoid” pathway predicts fluid reasoning and problem solving abilities! https://t.co/LmAOhR1R1F
We have an opening for a 1-year post-bacc full time (paid, of course) research assistant position. Please RT:
Interested in the neural basis of reward learning? We have a last-minute opening to work on a project at the intersection of neuroscience and machine learning. /1
Here is a link to the newest CCDL journal article looking at individual differences in learning to program in Python. https://t.co/433dWZD5dY @ChantelPratPhD Thanks to @jm__ceballos for help with the beautiful figures (in 🐍).
New research by @ChantelPratPhD extends research on natural la gauge learning to explain individual differences in the ability to learn programming languages! https://t.co/DpSeZyNOzq
Happy Birthday to us!!! @AndCortical opened their doors for data collection 9 years ago today! @UW_ILABS @TheRealDrDre2 @ChantelPratPhD We’ve done a lot of growing that we’re really proud of since then. You can check some of it out at https://t.co/5JMeiV0MAJ
@codykommers has done a fantastic job with Cognitive Revolution— a podcast exploring the personal side of science. I’m trying to wrap my mind around the fact that I’m featured here. Very vulnerable stuff, which I hope will help someone, somewhere! https://t.co/XamOMQWfyg
@AndCortical postdoc Kinsey Bice is in the news for some cool parts of her dissertation research with Judy Kroll. Her work showed that people who live in places where they hear many languages “in the background” learn new language rules differently than those who don’t!

Passing the torch... and the cake! CCDL’s newest Ph.D.s @jm__ceballos and Roy Seo cut the cake and our first year grad student Theodros Haile served it up! Thanks to all who helped us come out and celebrate our grads!
C.C.D.L. research was shining today through our undergraduate presentations at the Undergraduate Research Festival! @TheRealDrDre2 @ChantelPratPhD@UW_ILABS@UWPsychology
