Have you ever wanted to study neurotransmitter dynamics in vivo? Come and join us in Bangor, North Wales to learn all about fMRS, it's promise, potential, and pitfalls, and what you can use it to investigate!
Interested in functional Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (fMRS)? Then come and join us in Bangor in September to learn all about it. @PsychBangor @BIG_fMRI @SeicolegBangor @BangorUni @uni_bangor

If you're around on the last day of @CNSmtg, come check out this invited symposium! I'll be giving a talk along with @Wessel_Lab, @MillerLabMIT, and @dcdace. It's a real honor to share the stage with these folks and I'd love to hear what y'all think!

Check out Ryan's awesome new JNeuro paper. He'll tell you all about it in our Invited Symposium "Fulfilling the Promise of Inhibitory Control: Bridging the Gap Between Motor and Cognitive Inhibition" at next month's @CNSmtg with @dcdace & @MillerLabMIT. cogneurosociety.org/invited-…
Keeping the paper train rolling with a fun publication, out in JNeurosci (tinyurl.com/5n8whjkz). It's a follow-up to my work on neural mechanisms of directed forgetting and thought substitution. Here, we link DF to inhibition with cross-task analyses with a Stop Signal task.

Ever since I joined MathWorks, I've been bugging everyone there about a @MATLAB @ProjectJupyter Kernel. Last Friday, @MathWorks released it.
Here's my blog post describing it. blogs.mathworks.com/matlab/2…
