....and I just submitted a manuscript that I have 183 drafts of saved. I mean, yeah, 13 years since conception, 4 pilot studies (n>400), n=790 screened, ~22 assessments of n~140 w/ 2 MRIs, COVID, and so on. Rejected in this spot or not, it's a success, and I'll take that

How does your brain decide what you like and dislike— and why can those feelings flip after a bad experience? Read @pennngg.bsky.social student Lucas Tittle's post to explore the neural machinery behind valence and its flexibility. pennneuroknow.com/2025/11/18/w... #PsychSciSky #SciComm 🧠🟦🧪

Sign- vs. goal-tracking is associated with greater adiposity and altered functional connectivity in response to a naturalistic food paradigm

🍔 News: During exposure to fast food commercials, connectome predictive modeling predicts body mass gain. Not in the paper; I think CPM explains more variance than standard contrast approaches I've seen. Interesting question to compare them directly. #neuroscience t.co/yy9jq39q6H

I have a (very talented) RA looking to get her PhD, but gets intimated in sending me her writing to work up a manuscript to the point where it falls off the map. It’s always great work and I’m a softy, any advice? I’ve tried a bunch of approaches.
