Doing another #introduction!

I'm a #researcher that uses #ethnographic methods to explore human experiences with emerging #technologies, often forms of #AI, like #robots or #VUI. I'm in a sub-field of #psychology that looks at how people #create & #learn & make #artifacts & am also rooted in #film #theory.

To me #AI is a #communication medium & a #storytelling device. I'm interested in the stories people tell about their #emotional relationships with #tech.

Hi folks! I'm new here. Be nice to me! 🤗

I'm passionate about #OpenScience (and #opensource )

I'm founder of Open Science Tools, creators of #PsychoPy #PsychoJS and #pavlovia

My background is visual neuroscience and experimental psychology (or @cogsci depending how you like to categorise)

So if you're into those things too then let's connect!

on the one hand i live under this cloud. on the other hand, with a little drive (or a longer hike) one can climb above it

#Introduction: I’m a SW engineer at #Microsoft since interning back in ’98. Currently Engineering Director working on #VisualStudio.

I have a rotation of hobbies (#guitar, #woodworking, #programming) I get into pretty obsessively. I love the process of getting good at something even though I haven't come close to pulling it off. Also dabble with digital art, recording music, and 3d-printing.

Finally, my wife (also at MSFT) and I have two teenage daughters and an awesome dog, Rudy.

@DoctorRinny I am affiliated with PsychoPy and thank you for spreading the word!! (I'll share your post with my whole 5 followers.... I just got here 😅 )

#introduction

👋Hi I'm Becca!

🕵️‍♀️I live a double life as Chief Science Officer at Open Science Tools (the creators of #PsychoPy #PsychoJS #pavlovia ) and post doc at Trinity College Dublin.

👀👂My research focuses on multisensory perception and attention across the lifespan.

💻I like helping people make experiments so I talk about methods and #openscience

⚙️Passionate about helping develop accessible #opensource research tools

One of this weekend's missions is setting up 22.10 on my main driver laptop.. I'm quite pleased with some of the improvements made in 22.10. For one, I can't say I'm sorry to see PulseAudio eclipsed by Pipewire. Nonetheless, I have a lot of work to do over the next few days to get several finicky programs working on the upgrade.

I might occasionally feel a bit guilty about not getting out on my bike earlier in the day, but I never regret seeing sunset over the wide Dutch landscape 🙂

This one over De Wilck nature reserve south-east of Leiden during this evening’s 42km ride, my first in 11 days thanks to travel. Nice one 👍

Deviating from my usual conference poster content for . Come check out my Theme J poster today from 1-2 pm about the UCI Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory's Ambassador Program, a student-led neuroscience outreach effort 5+ years in the making! @mgchappelfarley

And if you're interested in 's, , , and/or , be sure to check out posters presented by my Yassa lab colleagues in the coming days!


Hello! I'm a PhD candidate in Neurobiology and Behavior () at the University of California Irvine. I'm using and imaging to study the progression of 's disease pathology and clinical impairment in people with . I'm planning to defend my dissertation in summer 2023, and I've been looking for jobs related to and/or to pursue after graduation.
I love running, hot yoga, hiking, and spending time with my cats 🙂

#introduction
Hello! I work on computer vision as it applies to medical imaging. I'm especially interested in neuro imaging.

I fill my free time with soccer and soccer data and I maintain a #python package, ScrapeFC, github.com/oseymour/ScraperFC.

I'm glad to be here and looking forward to meeting everybody!

I think I’m supposed to toot an #introduction. I’m Senior Research Fellow in computational geoscience at the Department of Earth Sciences in the University of Oxford. My research interests are mostly around Earth’s core and mantle at scales from atoms to planets.

This, from PNAS reviewing instructions, is actually pretty good:

"The purpose of peer review is not to demonstrate proficiency in identifying flaws."

I just received the kindest and most uplifting email from a colleague today. This career includes so much criticism and competition, it's so lovely when someone takes a moment to be supportive. I am deeply appreciative, and I need to do more of that myself for my colleagues.

#introduction

I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Laboratory of Sensorimotor Research (LSR), at the National Institutes of Health, working with Dr. Hendrikje Nienborg. I study the neural and computational mechanisms underlying perceptual decisions. I did my PhD with Prof. Tobias Donner in Hamburg, on choice-induced biases in perceptual decision-making. I employ methods like psychophysics, computational modeling, Neuroimaging (fMRI, MEG), & Neurophysiology with NHPs. #neuroscience #neurodon

This evening, I’ll share my first post. I mostly ride my Trek Verve 3 in the neighborhood. I also have a road bike and an e-bike. Perhaps I’ll share some more scenes from my rides around the and St. Paul, MN area. Alas, that’s for another day!

Shamelessly hopping on the #introduction bandwagon: Hi, I'm Ian. I'm a science communicator and space writer working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California as a media relations specialist. Space robot PR, basically. In a past life, I was a solar physicist. I love science fiction in all its forms and have a passion for #astrophysics, #astronomy and all things #space. When not typing, you'll likely find me at the #gym, #running in the hills, or at the pub with a G&T.

I’m just a Gen Xer playing computer games in my basement. 🤟 I can’t believe this really worked. They really don’t build them like the used to. “Does it boot?” Yes, yes it does!

Since I mentioned Citizen Science, I would like to share a teaser of what we do on Flywire - proofreading AI-mapped models of neurons of Drosophila.

This is one of the more massive and beautiful cell types found in the fly brain, the CT1. Originating in the central brain and fanning out into the optic lobe, there are only two to be found in the fly brain - one for each hemisphere. It interfaces primarily with the medulla and lobula neuropils.
