D'Mello Lab

D'Mello Lab at @UTSW_Psychiatry, @UTSWBrain, & @BBSutdallas. Studying language, cognition, and autism with a focus on the cerebellum.

[Anila D'Mello @aniladmello]

How do functionally specialized regions emerge in the cerebellum? And how critical is the neocortex? Check out @BangjieWang’s beautiful preprint!!

[Anila D'Mello @aniladmello]

We have not 1…not 2…but THREE amazing @dmellolab women presenting posters at the Celebration of Women in Science & Medicine (WISMAC) poster session @UTSWMedCenter TOMORROW! 🤯

[Anila D'Mello @aniladmello]

Celebrating new additions (@AmandaLeBel3) and @dmellolab successes with pizza, s’more’s, and confusion over how to make cerebellum hand-signs.

[D'Mello Lab @dmellolab]

Come see our posters at #Sfn2025

[D'Mello Lab @dmellolab]

Our lab had a wonderful time partnering with @utswbme to teach DFW STAR high schools students about the mysteries of the human brain! @aniladmello gave a talk and lab members helped students do brain myth quizzes, work with real MRI images, and answer excellent questions.

[D'Mello Lab @dmellolab]

🎉 Congrats to @a_jain_24 and @navilanka on receiving a Discovery Engine Award from @LHBioinf_UTSW! This grant funds independent research ideas from promising scientists. Excited to co-mentor alongside @MiloLinLab, and collaborate with these creative rising stars! 🌟

[ACEing Autism Dallas @ACEingDallas]

A reminder that we have a clinic this Saturday 7/12! Bring water and wear sunscreen as the weather will be hot. Make sure to post any absence in sportsYou. We’ll see you on the courts!

[D'Mello Lab @dmellolab]

Look out for our table this Saturday (7/12) from 8-11AM at UTD’s Aceing Autism event with @ACEingDallas! 🎾 We’ll be sharing info, answering questions, and cheering on the amazing athletes! Come say hi! 👋 #ACEingAutism

[Anila D'Mello @aniladmello]

So thrilled to be able to host @HalieOlson at @CVLneuro for a spectacular talk on Language in the Developing Brain. The upside is now we have an excuse to hang out and chat and write for the rest of the week 🧠

[Anila D'Mello @aniladmello]

Check out our paper ‘Ignoring the cerebellum is hindering progress in neuroscience’ in @TrendsCognSci! With @BangjieWang and @AmandaLeBel3 we quantify the extent of cerebellar exclusion in the neuroimaging literature and discuss reasons/fixes https://t.co/EdnSlha1T3 🧵⬇️

[Halie Olson @HalieOlson]

So excited this paper is finally out! 🎉 A wonderful collaborative effort (started in my 1st year of grad school) with @aniladmello @kineticjohnson and @gabrieli_john to study how kids' brains respond to stories about their interests: https://t.co/jyfdj3F3Bz

[Anila D'Mello @aniladmello]

Thrilled that this wonderful paper is finally out - a journey we started pre-pandemic in 2018 with @HalieOlson and @kineticjohnson. Although seemingly intuitive, the results of this paper were a surprise to us authors in many ways. 🧵below:

@UtswBmeProgram rotation student @anniejain42 gave an excellent Bachelor themed presentation for her last day in lab! 🌹

[The Transmitter @_TheTransmitter]

Dani Bassett @DaniSBassett and Lauren Ross @ProfLaurenRoss unpack the term “mechanism” and explore its use in different subfields of neuroscience. @ar0mcintosh, @kaczkurkin, and @PessoaBrain also share their thoughts.

If you’re at #SfN24 stop by @BangjieWang poster Monday Oct. 7th from 8-12 (X24): Cerebellum maintains a typical language profile following damage to the left temporal lobe in cerebral cortex.

[Liberty Hamilton @LibertySays]

I’m looking for a postdoc to work with my group on understanding speech and language in the brain using pediatric intracranial recordings. Looking for folks with strong computational skills and electrophysiology experience. Email me your CV if interested! Job post forthcoming.

[D'Mello Lab @dmellolab]

Summer lab lunch!

[Leanna Hernandez, PhD @LM__Hernandez]

📢 We're hiring! 📢
We have an immediate opening for a postdoc to work on neuroimaging-genetics at UCLA. Interested in linking large-scale MRI datasets with genomics and transcriptomics? Come work with us!

Just found out that the psychology job market got a boost from someone finally setting up a Google Sheet:
https://t.co/tYBjx3F72v

Don't know who did this, but whoever you are, THANK YOU!
I really hope this will pick up, to be as good as the management sheet.

Help improve this!
