How can we use fMRI to make inferences about cerebellar involvement in specific tasks? @ladanshahani's preprint introduces a clever new approach - and successfully tests it in the motor domain. Excited to be part of this! @diedrichsenlab @ivrylab @MaedbhK

An analysis in @NatureHumBehav finds that around 12% of scientific editors publish at least one-fifth of their own academic articles in the journal they edit. The study also finds that only 14% of the editors are women. go.nature.com/3IU5ppm

Does motor learning require movement? Nope! It turns out that we just need to experience a surprise after making a motor plan. Paper with @AForrence and @smickdougle now out in @PNASNews, link: bit.ly/3Pn0Lkj Detail 🧵below. 1/7

Also wanted to plug the supplement! We included a bunch of methods info at a reviewer's request, and I really like it! So important for reproducibility, and love discussing online/in lab methods, instructions, etc. Shoutout to @AForrence for the beautiful task programming! 🧵7/7

I am recruiting a postdoc to work on motor skill learning, with a focus on how learning scales as skills get more complex. Please get in touch if interested, or catch me at #NCMDub22 next week!
