Really excited to have an interview I conducted with Dr. Sarah Woolley, a songbird researcher at @ZuckermanBrain, published in @CricketMediaInc's Muse magazine!
Big moment. My first first-author preprint is now out...here we investigate the neural basis of curiosity using a cool behavioral task and some fMRI! Check it out if you're curious abt curiosity! (w/ my brilliant mentors Jackie Gottlieb and @mariam_s_aly)

1/9 Indians in the US on a work visa can't go home. There’s NO appointments.
The now ~200k H-1B Telegram group is growing by 13,000 per month.
Even with ~$40m in fees, the 5 VACs process ~10,000 a month. The next availability is ~2024!
Here’s 6 stories from hurting families:
I'm recruiting a grad student for Sept 2023 @uvic! If you're interested in memory, aging, and cognitive control (and want to live in a beautiful city), please get in touch and consider applying! Deadline Dec 1st.
Applying to PhD programs & interested in studying human memory? Be sure to consider my lab @UCRiverside! We use fMRI and EEG to look at memory (and esp how context influences our memories) in younger adults & healthy older adults. Apps are due by Dec 1st: https://t.co/srcUJuEu26
Thrilled to share my latest paper, "Aging shifts the relative contributions of episodic and semantic memory to decision-making", out now in Psychology and Aging with co-first author @zhabumafoo, Lynn Hasher, and @duncanlabUofT
https://t.co/2tGgX9IKSP
Keeping my 👀 on #BlackInNeuro rollcall for scientists applying for PhD programs this fall! My lab @UCRiverside opens Summer 2023 & will use brain imaging techniques (fMRI, EEG) to study memory, context, and aging. Feel free to DM/email if you're interested or want to know more!
We are looking for speaker nominations (ECR or SCR) for next year (22-23)!
Send nominations (name, inst., email, and webpage/scholar), and any supporting information (max 200 words) to:

Excited to share my first first-author preprint, “schema-based predictive eye-movement support sequential memory encoding” w/ the amazing Isabel Velarde, @weijima01, and @ChrisBaldassano. https://t.co/CJUcEqv4IA
I have been meeting with a lot of academics to chat about potential research careers outside the academy. They are often really surprised how research works in an industry setting 📈
So, here's a brief thread on what the process looks like from the other side:
🧵
If you use pupil size or (micro)saccade measurements in your research, check out our paper, out today in @ScienceAdvances!
We developed and validated a model that estimates arousal and cognitive variables from eye measurements.
Toolbox on @github.

Why come to a poster session on the last day of a conference? Well, perhaps you're curious! If you're @ CNS this year, come by poster session F (T 8-10 AM) to learn about how we (@mariam_s_aly, Jackie Gottlieb, and I) have leveraged vision to probe the neural basis of curiosity.
