Quebec City, Canada. What a privilege to have a job like this: sharing ideas and knowledge with enthusiastic colleague’s from all over the world. Great! Here’s the poster:  The Neural Basis of Bias in Decision Making

During my vacation, two papers were accepted… :-)

Mulder, M. J., Bos, D., Weusten, J. M. H., van Belle, J., van Dijk, S. C., Simen, P., van Engeland, H., Durston, S. Basic Impairments in Regulating the Speed-Accuracy Tradeoff Predict Symptoms in ADHD. Biol psychiatry, in press.

Mulder, M. J., van Belle, J., van Engeland, H., Durston, S. Functional connectivity in cognitive control networks is sensitive to familial risk for ADHDHuman Brain Mapping, in press.


June 3rd was a great day! Defending my thesis was actually a ‘pleasant’ experience, once the answers followed almost automatically on each question. After a nice celebration, I finally settled down at UvA were model based fMRI is an every day topic. Great!

Finally! June 3rd I will defend my thesis ‘Cognitive control and decision making in ADHD’.

During my time at the UMC-Utrecht I gradually shifted from a clinical to a more fundamental part of science: model-based fMRI. It’s not a sacred method, but certainly an eye-opener: As mathematical models can account for small changes in the dynamics of behavior, it makes more sense to look at the neural correlates of these dynamics, instead of just the average performance on a bunch of trials…

And yes, that’s why I’m very happy with my new post-doctoral job at the Spinoza Center for Neuroimaging at the University of Amsterdam where I will work on the neural correlates of perceptual decision making in Birte’s and EJ’s lab!
