Really excited to share our new preprint where we try and demonstrate that investing effort in creating reliable and acceptable measures can help us tease apart which cognitive processes are targeted by different elements of cognitive-behavioural therapies acplab.org

My first senior-author paper is properly out! (open access: doi.org/10.1002/brb3.3…). This is some work that Ashley Slanina-Davies (not on twitter) led during her MSci project UCL ICN, supervised by me and other co-senior-author Oliver Robinson. 🧵

How do antiparkinsonian #medications effect different symptom dimensions of #depression in #Parkinson's disease? 📢📢 Check out our (Jon Roiser 🟣 Robert Howard anette schrag) new preprint! 🚨🚨 Link: medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

Excited to share my new collaboration with Lukas Kunz (@lks_kunz ) in which we show that neurons in the human brain encode 2D positions in space.... an emotion space, that is, defined by valence and arousal! And, they do it, dare I say, in a grid-like pattern?

As promised, here’s the summary thread🧵: The study presented in this preprint investigates how humans decompose dynamical subprocesses and leverage the abstracted subprocesses for compositional reuse of experience in new situations. 1/n

🌟New paper online in Trends in Cognitive Sciences with Angela Radulescu & Kara Emery 🌟 We review work taking an approach we refer to as "naturalistic reinforcement learning", which uses more naturalistic approaches to study learning and decision-making. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Catastrophizing paper alert 🚨! We (Mia Harada-Laszlo, Anahita Talwar, and Oliver Robinson) tested whether catastrophizers responded differently to things 'going wrong' - i.e. if they received 'a series of unfortunate events' (or negative outcomes) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mh…

Excited to share our brand-new work shedding some light on the neural mechanisms behind one of human’s coolest cognitive feats: compositional generalization of structural knowledge! A Tweeprint-Thread 🧵 1/n
