If you're at #VSS2023 , check out @Rekha_Va 's poster tomorrow (Weds) morning! This is a new line of work for our lab that we're really excited about - would love to get feedback from the VSS community

Poster I'll be presenting at #VSS2023 on May 24 Wednesday morning. This poster features an ongoing project where we studied shared mechanisms and individual thresholds that make a stimulus social.

Okay, so we know you always look most like yourself, regardless of what you’re doing while being scanned (cf. original fingerprinting paper and many others, including recent results from @club_scan )

Postdoc Clare Grall @claregrall did her PhD in communication at Michigan State, where she combined media psychology and neuroimaging to study how messages engage and synchronize brains. She brings unique interdisciplinary expertise, scientific acumen, and copious artistic talent.

I critically re-examine some supposed advantages of rest and illustrate how in many cases, task-based acquisitions not only improve data quality, but also enhance interpretability and offer more satisfying insights into brain functional organization and its variability

While resting-state research revolutionized both our scientific perspective on brain function and our methodological toolkit for investigating it, at this point, I believe we can accelerate progress by de-emphasizing rest in favor of more interpretable paradigms

If you're a) still on Twitter and b) at #sfn22 , check out Hongji's poster tomorrow afternoon! She and @choongwanwoo have a cool thought-sampling task that can make people's "resting" functional connectivity profiles more unique *and* more predictive of behavior #GetBetterRest

Lab manager Josie Equita (Twitterless…for now) joins us from UCLA with BAs in Psychology and Economics. She was a rockstar undergrad RA in not one, not two, but THREE different labs all at the same time, and brings a broad set of skills to help support and lead projects.

The sustained-attention CPM strikes again (and again, and again and again and again)! Convincing new work from @monicarosenb showing that our original 2016 between-subjects model is also sensitive to within-subject changes in attention, using data from five different studies

Functional connectivity patterns predict differences in attention *between* people, but do these same patterns predict differences in attention *within* a single person? Across 5 datasets we show: yes! w/ @DScheinost @asgreene22 @esfinn @constable_todd & co

Hey @NotionHQ , we're a 7-person team of academic researchers at Dartmouth. We've been trying to access your 50% education discount for a team plan for many weeks now, but keep getting dead-end web forms and no response on email from your nonprofit custserv. Could you help us out?

New episode! I talked to @esfinn ( @DartmouthPBS ) about neural fingerprinting, naturalistic stimuli, how she got into science, her year in Peru, uncertainties about doing a PhD, how to write good papers, and much more. Thanks Emily for being a guest! 1/4
