@lkfazio Big fan of the Eagle Creek super-thin nylon ones. Roll up your clothes, pack them tightly in the cubes, and you won't believe how much can fit in a suitcase. Plus, they help with organization. Happy traveling!

[Jeff Berg @therealJeffBerg]

Well, I finally get to be first on academic byline. 🙂 In our just-published paper, @aw_gilmore, Ruthie Shaffer, @Kat_McD_, and I ask: Do people have their own idiosyncratic tendencies to visually experience memories and future thoughts? https://t.co/6Wf9kmKwLt (1/9)

@drlambchop @siminevazire And you’re worried about bagels being sliced like bread?

[Kathleen McDermott @Kat_McD_]

@drlambchop I can't defend it!! But I can confirm it's a STL thing.

[Annie Zheng @itsyungzheng]

After 3yrs of gestating as a PhD student, I’m introducing “Parallel Hippocampal-Parietal Circuits for Self- and Goal-oriented Processing”. My 1st paper out of my PhD is the result of 3yrs of failing better. Here to normalize that sometimes it takes a while.https://t.co/WtxAjZP46Q

@karampbell Thank you, Karen! Glad you found it interesting.

Collaborative work with @Zerr_Chris presented at #psynom20

[Psychonomic Society @Psychonomic_Soc]

@Kat_McD_ And, when including 3 essential design elements (large N, testing different items at each delay, and testing each participant at multiple timepoints – e.g., 1 min to 1-month delays), faster learning corresponds to slower forgetting.

Had a great time at virtual #psynom20! Enjoyed talking about our work using natural language to predict aspects of episodic events (pic related). Impressed by how smoothly things went and the fact that cool science doesn't have to be communicated in-person!
