Now in press! A new perspective on the age-related positivity effect. Or a paper in which I argue with my previous self.

In this theoretical review I propose a framework to explain the HRV/emotion conundrum in aging.

Excited to share a review with Clay Holroyd. We discuss RL approaches to foraging behavior (and what the ACC might do), and we propose that a hierarchal RL mechanism implemented by ACC can give lights into the neural computations supporting foraging.

Björklund & Barker summarize the experimental data in support of the idea that transplants of cholinergic neurons could be used to restore cognitive function in patients with Parkinson´s disease. https://t.co/69vr7hr0hQ

New paper out in Translational Psychiatry! I would now post a thread explaining our results... But luckily, @EWDolan has summarized our findings better than I ever could: https://t.co/gVcsiG1icd

I’ve been writing a blog post on collaboration in science – it’s long, but there’s a summary/TL;DR (and a TL;DR of the TL;DR), and some nice photos to look at, too: https://t.co/v9dwOuMxtS

Some bits on what it’s about (mostly points from the post’s summary):

Please RT!! I'm hiring a postdoc or junior research group leader (3 years +) on the topic of intrinsic motivation/intrinsic rewards (broadly defined). I especially look for researchers connecting basic science work to education. Come to @uni_tue!

@DuFMP Congrats! Sounds like an exciting new path you're taking.

I wrote a library for easily fitting attention-based deep auditory encoding models to predict brain activity - read 🧵below to learn when this technique might be useful (TLDR: less overfitting and more interpretability) and check out the library here: https://t.co/KbYWu2oaoq 1/7
