Delighted to receive the APS RISE Research Award! 🎉 🏆 Had a fantastic first APS in 🇪🇸, loved the conversations, met brilliant people, and really enjoyed presenting my poster to a broad audience! 🤩 Grateful to APS @psychscience.bsky.social and everyone who inspired me with questions and ideas 🧠
Can't wait for my first-ever APS meeting! #APS26BCN 🙌 I'll be presenting the latest results of my study as a poster titled "Linguistic Markers of Temporal Focus in Behaviour Change: Insights from a Smoking-Cessation Trial of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy" on May 29th🧠🚬🗣️

For many Iranian students, Neuromatch was one of the few bridges to the international neuroscience community. Iranian students and TAs have contributed so much to it. Many of us, including me, found neuroscience through Neuromatch. This decision by Trump’s gov is cruel, unjust and a loss for science
⚠️ Despite all the hype, chatbots still make terrible doctors. Out today is the largest user study of language models for medical self-diagnosis. We found that chatbots provide inaccurate and inconsistent answers, and that people are better off using online searches or their own judgment.
Your Iranian colleagues are cut off from family back home & are in a state of collective grief, which has many faces. We may appear more aloof or be more impatient, may self-isolate, have more typos, may freeze or overwork to numb the pain, or find fear, memory, or hope in unexpected moments.
Our experiences have countless details, and it can be hard to know which matter.
How can we behave effectively in the future when, right now, we don't know what we'll need?
Out today in @nathumbehav.nature.com , @marcelomattar.bsky.social and I find that people solve this by using episodic memory.
#arXiv is banning researchers for one year whose manuscripts contain hallucinated references.
