Hi everyone!

This fall, I will be starting my PhD in Psychological and Brain Sciences at Dartmouth 🌲!! I'm so excited to join Kiara Sanchez and the amazing folks at Dartmouth Psychological and Brain Sciences. Go green!!💚🌲

.Dartmouth Psychological and Brain Sciences professor Tor Wager and postdoctoral researcher Ke Bo are mapping how the brain regulates emotions. Their study Nature Neuroscience is among the first of its kind to separate brain activity relating to emotion generation from emotion regulation. bit.ly/4aGdmJn

New Preprint with Kaira Shlipak and viola störmer: osf.io/preprints/psya… Here we delve into the relationship between fluid intelligence and visual working memory for meaningful stimuli. 1/

Proud to have played a small role in this very cool paper! Congrats Hongji Kim and Choong-Wan (Wani) Woo!!

POSTDOC alert: We're looking for a postdoctoral scientist to join our lab at Dartmouth! We study the neural basis of perception, memory, and neurodiversity.

Learn about the brain and live in the mountains! Please share and RT!

Main thread:
My first project in CANlab tor wager has finally been published in Nature Neuroscience ! In this work, we aimed to take a new look at the brain mechanisms underlying emotion regulation from a slightly different perspective:

Two #fMRI studies (N=358) show that cognitive regulation of negative #emotion alters activity in the cortex, but not amygdala or other subcortical areas

Congratulations to Luke Chang (Luke Chang) of Dartmouth Psychological and Brain Sciences for winning the first ever SANS Mid-Career Award! Join us at #SANS2024 for his talk 'Towards a computational social and affective science' socialaffectiveneuro.org/awards/

Our lab is hiring a lab manager/RA to start in summer 2024! Learn cutting-edge behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging tools applied to big Qs in cog&social psych. Send qs my way, and apply through the official posting here: searchjobs.dartmouth.edu/postings/72747/

This was a really fun conversation! Thanks for having me

My lab at Dartmouth is recruiting a new lab manager! This is a fantastic position to launch a graduating senior into a PhD in neuroscience, MD program, or another scientific career. Please RT! robertsonlab.com/current-openin…

Fantastic to see so many people at Dartmouth 🌲's #NeuroscienceDay yesterday! A big thank you to our keynote speaker, Sarah Ross, and to all the amazing speakers and poster presenters who made the event so inspiring!

🚨New paper Mark Thornton & myself🌟how people infer others' traits dynamically from naturalistic videos🌟osf.io/preprints/psya…

Using various #computational tools, we identify importance of vocal, visual, & semantic info & effects of perceivers' moods, attitudes, & traits🧵

New paper from Beau Sievers & me, now out in SCAN! 'Deep social neuroscience: The promise and peril of using artificial neural networks to study the social brain' Open access link🔓: doi.org/10.1093/scan/n…

In a new pre-print from the lab (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…) led by @thinkatis, we find evidence that excitability in the mouse striatum varies according to LFP phase.

Read on to find out why we think it’s important! 🧵

Don't forget our speaker of the week! Come join us at DHMC in auditorium G. Dartmouth Health Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth Geisel School of Medicine MD-PhD Program DartGRAD Dartmouth MCB Graduate Program MSBDartmouth Dartmouth Psychological and Brain Sciences

New opinion piece with viola störmer online now at TICS! We discuss how representational geometry could provide new insights into attention and unite findings across different literatures (spatial, feature-, and object-based) cell.com/trends/cogniti…

New paper Nature Communications from me & Diana Tamir! 'Neural representations of situations and mental states are composed of sums of representations of the actions they afford' nature.com/articles/s4146…

Kudos to Dartmouth Psychological and Brain Sciences assistant professor and senior author Caroline Robertson and postdoctoral researcher and co-first author Adam Steel, who led this important study published Nature Neuroscience! ⤵️ Brenda Garcia ’21 also contributed to the research.

New paper demonstrating the hidden cost of receiving favors led by Xiaoxue Gao with Eshin Jolly, Hongbo Yu, Huiying Liu, & Xiaolin Zhou. Indebtedness motivates reciprocity by minimizing feelings of guilt and obligation. bit.ly/41Pm7O2
