In 2021 we reported that live learning outperformed recorded learning. In a new preregistered analysis, my first senior-author paper led by Stan de Visser (pre-print), we find that this benefit does not increase with interactivity. The potential to interact may be enough to boost learning. A thread:

What happens in the brain as people become less lonely? Intergenerational community programs can reduce loneliness, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We collected and analysed 732 🧠-scans to find out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... @introspection.bsky.social + @escross.bsky.social

Longitudinal intergenerational hyperscanning reveals indices of relationship formation and loneliness

Loneliness is globally acknowledged as a severe and burgeoning health risk, fuelling interest in helping people of all ages form meaningful social connections. One promising approach consists of inter...

Had the opportunity to present our #fNIRS hyperscanning study @gabriellavigliocco.bsky.social @antoniahamilton.bsky.social @saradefelice.bsky.social at #ICON2025 in the Social And Embodied Language Learning Symposium. Felt small in the huge auditorium but the room was filled w/ inspiring questions!

Had a great time presenting our #fNIRS study w/ @gabriellavigliocco.bsky.social @antoniahamilton.bsky.social @saradefelice.bsky.social @ #ESCOP2025!🧠 Grateful for the thought-provoking discussions that keep inspiring our work. A fantastic conference ending on a high note in beautiful Peak District ⛰️

🎓 FLUX is proud to spotlight Dr. Sara De Felice. Her research studies the role of naturalistic social interaction in human learning and model the behavioural and neural dynamics that support this process. Read the full interview at the link below: 👉 buff.ly/yzDQLA6

How do our brains and bodies support social learning in real time in the real-world? Check out the preprint by @saradefelice.bsky.social et al. Honoured to have been part of the team!

A Friday afternoon post to share our new paper (pre-print)! We modelled brain & behaviour & physiology from 27 unconstrained social learning interactions. Learning emerged from non-linear brain-gaze coupling and asymmetric neural dependencies suggesting mutual prediction. Full thread below ⬇️

How do our brains and bodies support social learning in real time? We take an ecological and multimodal neuroscience approach to study mutual prediction and social coordination when learning with others. It took 5 full years for this one! Full open-access pre-print: osf.io/preprints/ps...
