For those who haven't heard Mariam Aly of Columbia Psychology learned that she would not be promoted to Associate Professor w/o tenure, so she is being denied tenure w/o an organized external review process. See her tweet:
Today I learned that
@Columbia
will not be promoting me or putting me up for tenure. I have multiple active grants (including an R01 and a CAREER award) plenty of publications, a teaching award, and a history of DEI advocacy. Open to all opportunities in and out of academia.

Memories can be reactivated and strengthened during sleep. But what about when it's unclear which among many memories should be reactivated? A dizzying array of things! @eitan and I sift through these findings, arguing that reactivation fate depends on the nature of learning. psyarxiv.com/u48fp

Jacobs Foundation Research Fellowship application is now open. If you are an early-mid career researcher working on development/learning (from neuroscience to psychology to education), please apply!

As the current fellow, I highly recommend it. It is not about money (well, money matters...), but about the opportunities it provides to interact with researchers with various backgrounds. You'll have many opportunities to collaborate on truely interdisciplinary projects.

if you are at #psychonomics in #Boston this weekend, come say hi! I'll be presenting a model of hippocampal contributions to the testing effect by Xiaonan Liu & Randy O'Reilly.

I just made a 🧠 💭 @cogneurophys :amaze: b/c I didn't see much to collect neurobio of LnM, cognition, neural circuit mechanisms, etc., which I'd love to see in my timeline w/o matching hashtags.

If it's a good idea, you'd need to :boost_ok: b/c I'm a teeny whisperer here right now!

Ten Tiny Mastodon Newbie Cultural Tips 🐘:

In random order 👇

1. Add Alt-Text to you pictures! It’s the norm here.

2. Use Content Warnings (CW) generously.

3. BE KIND 💚

4. Respect the work that your instance’s admin(s) do for you. Support them financially if you can, this is volunteer work there are no ads here.

5. Read the Code of Conduct and Server Rules for your instance. These are different between instances. You usually can find this information by adding “/about” or “/about/more” after your instance’s website address (which is the same as your instance’s name).

6. Do exchange genuinely with people. Interact!

7. Add genuine info to your profile’s bio.

8. It’s not the best to only use your account here to automatically forward all of your tweets without ever interacting. We are here to be here. This is not an advertising platform, and people might unfollow or mute you for this.

9. Many features that are not like on Twitter have been left out deliberately for a good reason. Respect that. Listen to the Mastodon elders.

10. This is NOT Twitter. It is MUCH better! 🐘✨

BE KIND! HAVE FUN! BE GENUINE! MAKE FRIENDS! :ablobsmile:
