1/9 I’d like to highlight our recently published, open access manuscript in @netneurosci titled “Network topology of symbolic and nonsymbolic number comparison”. @numerical_brain doi.org/10.1162/netn_a_00144

Let's chat science! @OHBM poster today #674 and talk on Friday @ 7pm (talk link: bitly.com/3draBOl) In work with @BenNConrad and @gavinrprice, we investigated individual differences in decoding symbolic and nonsymbolic number. #OHBM2020Posters #OHBM2020

.@darrenjyeo, @_CPollack, @rebeccammerkley, @NumCog, & @gavinrprice asked whether multivoxel activation patterns in the "number form area" (in adults) are sensitive to distinctions among character categories during passive viewing. Talk: rb.gy/vzbjl7 3/n

I have a video conference for my #VSS2020 poster now (also times scheduled for M & Tu next week). Link for today: vanderbilt.zoom.us/j/9921448… ... Here @gavinrprice and I looked at functional coupling of the "number form area" in kindergartners during numeral processing.

I'm thrilled to announce that @gavinrprice is now officially tenured at #vupeabody 🎉 Gavin is not only an excellent scientist and mentor, he's also been amazingly generous with with me and other jr faculty, sharing materials & advice. I'm so pleased to have him as a colleague.

Check out our recent paper on the link between estimation ability and math competence by @darrenjyeo & @gavinrprice - partly a follow-up of our previous paper bit.ly/2uVLXF4 with @EricDWilkey

Why are individuals who are better at estimating the number of items in a set also better at #math, and vice versa? We investigated this Q in college students here: rdcu.be/b1I2v Thread👇🏼

Registered replication report, Investigating the visual number form area (NFA), is out: royalsocietypublishing.org/d… I learned a lot from this work with @NumCogLab & @numerical_brain. #openscience We tested whether the NFA can be reliably located with fMRI and a passive viewing task.

At #FluxNYC2019? @BenNConrad will be presenting findings from an fMRI study of numerical symbol processing in kindergartners (focusing on the ventral visual stream) at the flash talk session and poster session (1-P-141) today!

Landed in #Newark and in route to #NewYork for #FluxNYC2019! Looking forward to my first @Flux_Congress, presenting a flash talk and poster tomorrow on our #fMRI study of digit processing in kindergartners. @numerical_brain

New research out from my time with @numerical_brain investigating the impact of numerical alternative facts (yes, these are lies about numbers) and the flexibility of numeral-numerosity mapping. There is a lot of variability in how malleable our perception is!
Adults tend to readily modify estimates of quantities when given feedback. Why do some people show more or less malleability in mapping exact numbers and quantities than others? @darrenjyeo, @EricDWilkey & @gavinrprice examined this here: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Thanks to wonderful mentors for making things happen @NumCog @numerical_brain !
Very proud of my former PhD student @EricDWilkey who has received a prestigious Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship to work with @NumCog! Congrats Eric!!!
