33 MEGA Byte sounds rather large. not sure the german internet can handle that much data with their copper wires. Better send it on 33 floppy disks or even better as a truck full of punch cards....

We then correlated motivational factor with brain activity across tasks, showing general collapse of activity in pgACC with motiv. collapse. Stimulation of same region improves motivation by reducing disengagement showing that this region causally contributes to task engagement!

There was a lot more in the paper, including contrasting motivational collapse trials with general motivational state, but I hope this little teaser made you interested enough in the paper to check it out!

Still looking for postdoc. See more details here: sites.google.com/view/ecc-te… Also, if you are interested in applying for a Marie Curie PostDoc Fellowship, get in touch. You'd be joining a great team with access to MEG, fMRI, TUS and electrode recordings in humans and animals 1/2.

Plus a focus on new task design, cognitive modelling, gamification and exciting ideas of how to expand measuring peoples cognitive and physiological contexts and it's impact on behaviour. find a recent description of some of our approaches/ideas here: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

We got a press release about our recent paper in Nature Human behavior : psychreg.org/scientists-iden…

Scientists Identify Part of the Brain Necessary for Sunk Cost Biases

Have you ever noticed that cars in other lanes were moving faster, yet felt compelled to stick in the lane you chose first?

I am very glad this found a good home as this is great work by Ellie, a proud achievement of our lab and truly collaborative effort! And I think we learned something new about incremental goal pursuit and what keeps us on track (or allows us to abandon when necessary!)
Ellie Holton@EleanorHolton117 Apr 2024
Very excited our study on how goals shape choice is out now in @NatureHumBehav with @NilsKolling @jangrohn @BrainInTheMind and Jill O'Reilly! nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

I also hope this paper will be interesting to people outside the field as doing an academic job is all about incremental goal pursuit and 90% completed tasks being worth nothing, which is what we investigate here!
