@MPC_CompPsych @Rachel_Bedder Well done, my desk buddy! 👏🏻

[Max Planck UCL Centre for Computational Psychiatry @MPC_CompPsych]

Congratulations to our IMPRS PhD student Dr @Rachel_Bedder for successfully defending her thesis!

@Rachel_Bedder @sam_ereira Funnily enough, I came across mention of the book this week when reading about quines and would be interested in a book club too :)

[Benjamin JH Chew @chew_jh]

@RobbRutledge None of what I did would have been possible without you (and @TobiasUHauser, @mp_neuro, Ray) so I'd be happy to take that small portion of credit and give you guys the rest :)

[Benjamin JH Chew @chew_jh]

Passed my PhD viva! Huge shout-out to @brain_apps and Peter Kok for the engaging discussion and leaving me with plenty of food for thought!

[Benjamin JH Chew @chew_jh]

@brain_apps @TheCHBH @MSNlab @UoB_SoP @unibirmingham @LES_UniBham Huge congratulations!

[Benjamin JH Chew @chew_jh]

Exciting opportunity in an intellectually-stimulating and friendly environment!

Already seen the one and only @moran_rani performing stand-up comedy (https://t.co/bE9sUpkfEP)? Now come hear him talk about his day job! While you are at it, why not make it a double feature with my wonderful labmate @Rachel_Bedder's PhD upgrade presentation @ 2 p.m.?

[Department of Imaging Neuroscience @ImagingNeuroUCL]

Brain Meeting at 3.15pm today!

Dr Rani Moran (UCL) will discuss "Broadening the Scope of Model-Based Functions and System Interactions in Dual System RL: Self-Reflective Planning and Retrospective Inference."
