I wrote something mildly irresponsible:

A Bestiary of Modern Scientists

Featuring:
- The McScientist
- The Broker
- The Hipster
- The Socialite
- The Costanza
- The Late Blooming Theorist

I suspect many will recognize local fauna.

1. We are now “Diamond” access for the foreseeable future (at least 2 years at this point): this means there are NO CHARGES for publication (or submission, or anything)

New @CurrentBiology paper from @SchynsPhilippe lab funded by
@wellcometrust: “Pre-frontal cortex guides dimension-reducing transformations in the occipito-ventral pathway for categorization behaviors” with @JiayuZhan @Joachim__Gross @drrobinince. We investigate how brain networks actively transform the same complex input scene images into their task-specific lower-dimensional manifolds to support flexible categorization behaviors.

With strong stimulus control and a model-based analysis that differentiates between multiple forms of perceptual independence, we consistently find across 12 experiments that face identity and expression are perceived as a "Gestalt" (according to formal definition from SDT)

Now accepted for publication in @APA_Journals Emotion: "Multidimensional Signal Detection Modeling Reveals Gestalt-Like Perceptual Integration of Face Emotion and Identity." With @S_SanazHosseini as lead author. https://t.co/6IBbw1Q8tE.

What is the computation underlying confidence? With @DobyRahnev and @Mynameismedha, we compared distance-to-criterion models to Bayesian models in two experiments, and provided support for the distance-to-criterion models over Bayesian models. 1/13
