1\ I'm excited that I'll be presenting new work on “Dimensions of Consciousness” for a symposium at #ASSC26 in NYC. The symposium topic is “Mathematical Spaces for Conscious Experiences,” co-organized by @JohannesKleiner and me. I'm looking forward to returning to NYU!

How does our brain come up with new ideas and insights? We propose that insights are unexpected rewards or shortcuts found during mental navigation and correspond to the rapid emergence of new concept fields in the hippocampus.

How can we manipulate our worlds to improve our minds?

If you listen to this week’s episode of “All in the Mind” on @BBCRadio4, you can catch the inimitable @samgilbert1 talking about his work on “cognitive offloading” and metacognitive control.

(1/9) Momentous news today: a clinical trial shows that #Alzheimers drug #lecanemab reduces amyloid in the brain & slows cognitive decline in patients. This breakthrough has been hailed as "the beginning of the end" for Alzheimer’s treatments by Prof John Hardy @UCLIoN @UKDRI 🧵

This is so exciting & an incredible day for Alzheimer’s research. It’s far from perfect - modest effects and risks - so lots to do and research still needed - but after so many failures and controversies it’s nice to feel the buzz of optimism again! https://twitter.com/bbcworld/status/1597839164300578817

"Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar, while on the run, purportedly burned two million dollars in banknotes to keep his daughter warm. A stark reminder that ... goals can quickly change, forcing us to reassess and modify our values on-the-fly"

Amazing way to start a paper https://twitter.com/bendemartino/status/1597217863101972481
