Estamos de vuelta! 🥳
Hola de nuevo! Nuestro ya querido ReproducibiliTea está de vuelta un curso más 🤗. Para retomar el ritmo, este mes abordaremos un artículo en forma de comentario sobre la cuestión de si merece la pena coordinarnos mejor en ciencia 🤝. Os esperamos el próximo 27 de octubre a las 16h.

New paper in Nature Mental Health where we show that macroeconomic income inequality is associated with brain structure and function over and above individual-level SES and other state-level factors. These alterations may serve as pathways to mental health problems.

Macroeconomic income inequality, brain structure and function, and mental health - Nature Mental Health
Rakesh et al. used data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development cohort study to evaluate the relationship between state-level income inequality, brain structure and function, and mental health in young people.

Looking forward to #ICON2025!

Apart from posters (updates coming), we’ll be at the “Sudden Learning Across Systems” symposium talking about factors behind solving visual disambiguation 👀, memory traces of one-shot perceptual learning and more.

Excited to share and get inspired by your work! 🚀

🧠💻 We (a bunch of colleagues at @cimcyc.bsky.social) just released a programming guide for psych & cog neuro students. Instead of a tutorial, this is a starting point: a collection of reflections, examples, and recommendations.
