In 3 days, I'm leaving to take a 4 day train journey to Sweden with the dog, where we join the family and a bestie and her child on a tiny Swedish archipelago, with a terrace that looks at the Baltic sea. Can't wait :) 3 weeks of blissful nothing!

I’ve been hoping to have an opportunity to learn computational neuroscience for years, and I finally signed up for @neuromatch.bsky.social ! It’s feeling very real - orientation is Wednesday. Here are my feelings about it :)

I gave a small talk 2 days ago about using the emotional shifting task to study emotional flexibility. Two other suuuuper smarties who spoke but aren’t on bsky: Adeline Lacroix and Martial Mermillod, on EST/autism/predictive coding.

Tomorrow: 2 syllabi due, I’m running a work group meeting of bachelor’s students, discussing my ethics board application for my first PhD project, and my daughter’s gf is coming to dinner! Plus, you know, 5 doses of eye meds for the dog.
