Very excited to be co-organizing MEG UKI in Birmingham this year with my amazing colleagues 👉👉 early bird registration has just opened and seems like a pretty good deal 👇There's gonna be a special session on ✨OPM MEG ✨ do join us! 😊

My lab and collaborators are hiring for several positions, postdocs through lab staff (typically people between undergrad and maybe grad school). If you are interested in any of: fieldwork, probability, number learning, algorithms, cognitive modeling -- please get in touch!

Join us! FreezeMotion PhD and Postdoc Vacancies in Deep Neural Networks for Medical Imaging. Brain development in infants and its disruption by preterm birth or perinatal injury, can be measured with functional MRI (fMRI).

Exciting new work Nature Communications led by Josh Rule on how to model human learning symbolically. The new model out-performs key alternatives, including a code generation LLM and previous symbolic models. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Oh, hello there! You are looking for a postdoc position and you are curious about neural and computational mechanisms of flexible goal-directed decision-making? What a coincidence! We might be looking for you!

Thank you both so very much for contributing to BabyScience Birmingham BabyLab School of Psychology, University of Birmingham 🩷 Babies of Birmingham, sign up here to take part in our fun studies: birmingham.ac.uk/research/activ…

Looking forward to seeing all the MEG-art (and MEG-science) at MEG UKI in a couple of months! 👉 deadlines: 🧠abstract 🧠submission: 22nd of September 🎨artwork 🎨submission: 25th of October

My lab in Washington DC 🌸 is hiring! We are seeking a post-bacc RA to assist on NSF/foundation-funded projects in infant cognitive neuroscience 👶🧠 Learn more: american.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/AU/job/Main-Ca… Interested? Apply with a CV & cover letter listing 2-3 references. Join the team! 📝 Pls RT

Check out how the program is shaping up and don't forget to 👉submit your @MEG_UKI_2024 abstract by 👉22nd Sept❣️ possibility to apply for *travel grants* to cover registration + travel + accommodation ‼️ Looking forward to seeing everyone in Birmingham!

On my way to #SNE2024 in Lisbon - excited to return to the conference after two years! I will be presenting a poster "P3-I-200 - Bottom-Up and Top-Down Attention in Value-Based Choice" - some new work joint with Blair Shevlin and Clayton Hickey - check it out on Sunday

Open letter from a group of sleuths re problems with editors/papers at Scientific Reports deevybee.blogspot.com/2024/10/an-ope… They've published 23K papers in 2024 with APC of £2090, raising £48 million from this journal alone, so should be able to put resource into cleaning this up.

It looks like QMEG has a few extra tickets available ‼️Get one and come chat to us about our 👉infant OPM-MEG👈work Birmingham BabyLab Quantum Neuroscience Lab School of Psychology, University of Birmingham

1/🧶 Another preprint ! Ever wondered how we quickly interpret scatterplots and graphs? 🧠📊 Our new study with Stanislas Dehaene @standehaene.bsky.social reveals that our brains might recycle neural systems originally built for other purposes—just like reading and math!

📢 Webinar Series: The Impact of Sleep on New Parents 💤 Are you an expectant parent, parent or professional and want to learn more about the basics of new parent sleep and its impacts. Four public webinars, free to attend online, and led by Andrew Surtees and myself.

Today's sponsor shoutout for MEG-UKI is Cerca Magnetics Limited Cerca’s fully-integrated and wearable OPM yields high quality MEG data and provides researchers opportunities that were previously inaccessible; such as lifespan compliance and movement studies. cercamagnetics.com

Yay!

The whole team worked tirelessly to make this happen! Can't wait to play and chat about science with all the babies and parents of Birmingham 😊😊

Day 1000. My life changed drastically since day 1. Everyone said Ukraine will fall in 3 days. Not a single person believed in us, but we fought fiercely in 2022, against all odds, and we won the battle of Kyiv. My thoughts on 1000 days, as a soldier of Ukrainian Army now🧵

We're thrilled to attend the Inaugural Lecture of our very own Professor Andrew Bremner. Please join us to find out 'What it is like being a baby', details ⬇️ Babies and parents very welcome 😊
