Dan is excellent - highly recommend this ⬇️

Amanda Ferguson & Georgia Turner #CeasefireNow apply a Bayesian approach to set out our theory that digital environments change the certainty of social information. This first step will open many potential & exciting avenues for formal modelling and theory testing to improve teen mental health

This blog by Russ Poldrack on climate psychology is a really helpful read for anyone interested in the intersection between cognitive science and climate research: poldrack.github.io/blog/posts/psy…

Would love recommendations for conferences happening in/near **Europe** this year, i.e. reachable by train from UK, in fields of computational psychiatry / computational modelling of behavioural/neuro data / social psychology / clinical psychology 🚂🙏

This fact has not changed during the year.

We don't need miracle techs to address climate. We need to deploy, deploy, deploy existing techs as fast as possible.

Every loss of life is an infinite loss, and one that we must protest against with every fibre of our being. The carnage must stop. Our bare minimum demands remain a Ceasefire Now, a Hostage Deal and an End to the Siege on Gaza.

I wrote about AI for Royal Institution 🤓

Well done Luisa Fassi!!! 👏🎉

Our Bayesian account of being 'left on read' 👇led by amazing Amanda Ferguson with Amy Orben

Their partners Oded and Amiram are still in captivity, as are more than 200 others. We call on international leaders to prioritise the urgent release of all hostages and an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

#Warwontbringthemhome #CeasefireNow

As Israel continues its indiscriminate bombing of Gaza, leaving 1000s dead and injured and 1.4 million Palestinians homeless, our politicians refuse to take a stand and call for a ceasefire.
But they don’t represent the British public, which overwhelmingly agrees: ceasefire now.

HAPPENING NOW: around 100 British Jews are gathered at our vigil in London to mourn all Israelis and Palestinians killed in recent days.

We come together to reaffirm our principles: that all human life is sacred. That all people should live free from oppression and violence.

We call on our government to condemn the Israeli government's actions and to demand de-escalation.

The siege and bombardment of Gaza must stop, and we implore governments and leaders in the UK and beyond to stand for the most basic of legal and moral standards to be upheld.
