So glad to finally share work years in the making! What started with fMRI effect size benchmarks ended up showing that conventional study planning detects ~half of expected brain effects, suggesting more distributed processes than the lit shows
(+ new methods for mass univ effect/power estimation)
1/ New paper alert!
Stress often builds over time, but many scientific studies treat it as just an on/off thing. In this paper, we introduce the Leiden Stroop-like Stress Task (LSST): a new paradigm for inducing graded, mild-to-moderate stress in the lab.

New #OpenAccess paper in European Child & Adolescent Psychiatry 📄
Childhood maltreatment (CM) increases the risk for lifelong mental illness - but which biological pathways are involved here? One prominent target put forward is inflammation. But what drives proinflammatory states?
A paper🧵
This is us 🎈.
The study was led by @corcerebrum.bsky.social and the @neuromadlab.bsky.social team.
claude and have figured out how to (a) critique papers, while auto-deploying methods checklists; (b) integrate our critiques (cos we each miss stuff the other catches); and (c) provide career-stage-calibrated feedback and suggestions for improvement. perfect for stress-testing lab manuscripts.
