I'm recruiting a PhD student for Fall 2027 at the University of Maryland — Cognitive Flexibility Dynamics Lab, studying cognitive control via brain recording (M/EEG, MRI), stimulation (TUS), and computational modeling. Please email me: cfd-lab.com/join

Finally out in @JOCN_Journal. We had hoped to inhibit the amygdala using transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) as a proof-of-concept that the amygdala is causally involved in emotional episodic memory encoding, but this backfired…1/10

How does the brain stop thoughts? Find out in my article in @natrevneuro.nature.com with Subbu Subbulakshmi & Maite Crespo-Garcia www.nature.com/articles/s41... that integrates 25 yrs of psychology and neuroscience on this vital [email protected] sky.social #neuroskyence #neuroscience

Here's a bit of unusual work on error processing and error awareness from our lab, which we've been working on off and on for around eight years: www.biologicalpsychiatrycnni.org/article/S245...
