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.

"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

This is beyond humbling. 🙏 Thank you!!! And happy birthday to my book baby, The Neuroscience of You!

[Chantel Prat (she/her) @ChantelPratPhD]

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!

[Chantel Prat (she/her) @ChantelPratPhD]

Guess what just came in the mail??? 💃🏻🥳📖

[Chantel Prat (she/her) @ChantelPratPhD]

What an honor to see my book in this line up! Feeling lucky?

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

[C.C.D.L. @AndCortical]

And just like that CCDL launches its 4th Ph.D. out into the world. Congrats Margarita and “you’re welcome” (again) Google! @ChantelPratPhD

[C.C.D.L. @AndCortical]

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

[C.C.D.L. @AndCortical]

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

[C.C.D.L. @AndCortical]

@ChantelPratPhD shares the stories of adventures and misadventures in science 🧠 @TheRealDrDre2

[Chantel Prat (she/her) @ChantelPratPhD]

@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. @AndCortical]

C.C.D.L. research was shining today through our undergraduate presentations at the Undergraduate Research Festival! @TheRealDrDre2 @ChantelPratPhD @UW_ILABS @UWPsychology

[C.C.D.L. @AndCortical]

Happy to announce that our first “social” brain-network paper has been accepted at Scientific Reports! @TheRealDrDre2 @lpjiang97

[Linxing Preston Jiang @lpjiang97]

Excited to share that my BrainNet preprint is now on arxiv: https://t.co/ebf6d4mbj6 Big thanks to Andrea Stocco, Raj Rao and @ChantelPratPhD !
