I am excited to announce that I will be joining the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning at Beijing Normal University as a professor starting next month. In the Tang lab, we will employ large-scale recordings and optogenetics to investigate the neural circuit mechanisms (1/3)

#Neuroimaging crowd, hear me out! 👀
Did you ever want to add #EyeTracking to your #fMRI study but found it too much hassle? Got existing data you’d love to add eye tracking to?
Consider trying out *MR-based eye tracking* (i.e. inferring gaze from eye voxels)!
Here is a 🧵 with a few options!👇 1/9

A growing problem --- fake papers polluting systematic reviews. And interesting point that the gold-standard protocols that Cochrane is developing to weed out untrustworthy studies, are too much of an effort for systematic-review authors looking at 100s of papers. www.science.org/content/arti...
‘Systematic reviews’ that aim to extract broad conclusions from many studies are in peril
Fake papers are “poisoning the well” for these gold-standard syntheses, researchers say

Another huge influx of colleagues to BlueSky this week, so let me attach the fully updated Neurophysiology starter pack for anyone interested.

Our paper is published in the latest issue of NEURON. We examined the neural mechanisms involved in learning from the gains and losses of symbolic reinforcers in the ventral frontostriatal circuitry. 🧠

Ventral frontostriatal circuitry mediates the computation of reinforcement from symbolic gains and losses
Tang et al. show that OFC plays a more important role in learning from symbolic reinforcers
than subcortical structures. OFC computes reinforcement signals and sends the information
to the VS through ...
