🚨My brainchild of the last 1.5yrs is now available to read in @jaacap! Let’s break ‘reward processing’ down into its building blocks, and study them systematically in infants & toddlers. https://t.co/QKZ8bHInxN 1/5 🧵
In honor of the album announcement, I am endeavoring to write “Taylor Swift” into the current manuscript I’m drafting. If it gets past co-authors, it will be my crowning accomplishment as an academic and as a swiftie. 🫶🎓
📣 I'm hiring a research coordinator! Would you enjoy working with preschool age autistic children during study visits, & a wonderful group of grad students & staff in the developmental and clinical psych programs at ND? If yes, pls email your resume/CV to [email protected]!
Many thanks to the families who traveled with their child with TSC from around the country to Boston Children’s or UCLA for this EEG and other assessments. I’m so fortunate for the time I spent learning from them, as well as from @drcarolw in careful analysis of resting EEG. 9/9
New paper alert! A story where secondary findings were perhaps more interesting than our original question. Before I start, I extend deep thanks to the families in the study. https://t.co/xBFGgwxgEs 🧵 1/x
I’m working on a stats approach to disentangle the effects of meds on EEG. In the meantime, we recommend that resting EEG studies across psychiatry are sure to collect medication data from participants. 8/x
NIMH data portal to access NDAR and other data has been down for over 2 months and our project has been stalled. Any idea when we can expect NDA back up and running @NIMHgov ? Thanks!
Now also seems like a good time to announce here that I’m taking a clinical grad student(s) this year. If you’re interested in how reward processing develops in the young brain, or in genetic syndromes, come talk to me! I’ll be at the @ABCTAutism happy hour tonight.
Heading to @ABCTNOW ! Excited for @McellinMik48849 to present her first conference poster on effort in 3-5 year olds. They loved our new progressive ratio task with a musical bubble machine!

I'm so fortunate to be part of a cohort of amazing new faculty in the psych department at Notre Dame
Read about them below! (skip past the first one, though, he's not worth your time)
