I totally recommend this informative, original, amazingly produced youtube channel youtube.com/c/Fouloscopie by creative genius @mehdi_moussaid if you are interested in @cultural_evolution and @collective_intelligence (in French, but you can add English subtitles)

For all the people who followed me recently because I posted some weird posterior distributions, I have made more than 20 hours of free lectures on Bayesian stats and causal inference just for you👇 xitter.cf/rlmcelreath/status/163…
Preprint is out! Chapter on Iterated Learning Experiments coauthored with @PapaAliki for @cedricboeckx and @Limor_Raviv's Oxford Handbook of empirical approaches to language evolution. How do you like Fig. 8? psyarxiv.com/bcp69/
You learn 2 cultural variants (e.g., 2 ways to solve a problem), 1 from a friend, 1 from an expert. Which one will you pass on to another friend? And to a novice when you become an expert? We find a congruence effect in our new paper: journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…
My dear friend is doing this crowdfunding to travel to the location of the book trilogy she is in the middle of writing. Please help if thou can! Thanks!! gofund.me/e8e93e1d

Did you know that there is a lovely 50 seater cinema in the New Town of Edinburgh?
Bet you didn't - I didn't and about 60 or 70 members of my family who lived within 500 metres never mentioned it neither

Really gutted it has come to this. I’d rather be teaching my students about language evolution. But the future of higher education is in the balance, and the time has come again to try and save it.
Always great to work with you @SimonKirby ! One of these years we may even agree on the mechanisms underlying cultural evolution !!
I'm very proud of this paper I worked on with @onicatam that presents a simulation model explaining the origins of combinatorial structure in language and why population structure can affect its emergence. royalsocietypublishing.org/d…
Extremely proud and happy to announce that my PhD student @PapaAliki passed her viva today with flying colors! Thanks to examiners Andy Whiten and Stephen Gibson, and to co-supervisors @MioCristea and Nicola McGuigan! Many congratulations Aliki!!!!!
My university is rethinking its academic year structure. I think closing uni (including admissions etc) for 1 month in summer would only bring benefits. My questions: 1. Which universities close for 1 month? 2. What do you think of the idea?
I will be speaking tomorrow (Thursday) about our very exciting EU project on dancing remotely to promote social connection and joy, please join us!
The Carousel researchers are looking forward to meet you at our #AI3EU café presentation this Thursday Oct 21 5-6PM CET. We look forward to present and answer your questions on using #AI #VR #Haptics #Metaverse for human interaction.

Give me a shout if you’d be interested in doing a PhD with me and join our vibrant department. Topics include sign language learning by deaf children or hearing adults, language learning in hearing kids and overall multimodal communication.
Finally published!!! rdcu.be/czMtr —Extremely happy and especially proud of my PhD student @PapaAliki - we compare social transmission via demonstration vs verbal instruction in children and adults @MioCristea @NicolaMcGuigan7

Our @RegReport was in-principle accepted at AMPPS🎉🎉🎉 We are ready to officially recruit collaborators for the MANY SPEECH ANALYSES project.
Get more info on our webpage and sign up to become a co-author: many-speech-analyses.github.…
Hey phoneticians,
the MANY SPEECH ANALYSES project looks for researchers interested in analyzing one speech production data set in order to test the same hypothesis. Are you in-principle interested in earning co-authorship?

Why do people underutilise social information? #SocialLearning
Our new @SciReports paper suggests:
Maintenance of prior behaviour can enhance cultural selection
