Very cool work!

Very much enjoyed my conversation with @rbaltman.bsky.social on the Future of Learning to Read engineering.stanford.edu/news/future-...

First senior author paper! Excited to share this work led by Hannah Stone with the dream team @jamielmitchell.bsky.social, Mia Fuentes-Jimenez, Jasmine Tran, and of course the mentorship and guidance of @jyeatman.bsky.social . Now out in the Journal of Neuroscience- www.jneurosci.org/content/45/1...

New study up on ROAR@Home BETA. We’re developing a phonics screener particularly for early elementary school. Please report bugs if you encounter any! roar.stanford.edu/signup/

Looking forward to it!

ROAR is now used across 29 states and 6 countries and was approved as a dyslexia screener in CA and Ohio! You can see a map here roar.stanford.edu/technical/in...

It's hard to overstate what a big deal this paper is: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/.... Head motion in dMRI is NOT like head motion in BOLD.

That’s so dark… but now you got me thinking

If you have expertise in dyslexia and want to build bridges between research and practice consider applying careersearch.stanford.edu/jobs/researc...

I think magnetic resonance fingerprinting is one of the biggest innovations in quantitative MRI this decade and new work led by @mayayablonski.bsky.social convinced my that this methodology will drive new research directions in developmental cognitive neuroscience doi.org/10.1162/imag...

It’s these kinds of things that make me sad that I don’t write as much code as I used to! When I started my faculty job at UW @arokem.org and had 2 standing 2-hour meetings every week to rewrite AFQ as pyAFQ. Those were the days!

Cool new review from @drewhalbailey.bsky.social that’s well worth the read! www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...

Just attended a wonderful guest lecture from @lisapatel.bsky.social about effects of climate change on early childhood.

Facts were depressing, but my main takeaway was for adults to model taking climate action collectively, and also to help our children build a personal connection to nature.

Always wanted to!

Looks like a useful resource!

New preprint from Maha Ramamurthy thoroughly unpacking the mutli-element processing (visual attention space) task. The data point towards a general issue with rapid visual processing in dyslexia osf.io/preprints/os...

On my way to San Diego to represent ROAR as a universal #dyslexia screener in San Diego country school. Whether or not schools choose, ROAR I’m excited to talk with district leaders and teachers about our vision to build deeper, systematic links between research and practice so come find me!

Wasn’t a headline I was ever expecting to see www.science.org/content/arti...

Thanks to all the beta testers out there, we've fixed all reported bugs and the ROAR@Home Research Portal is back up and running! roar.stanford.edu/homesignup/

This paper still characterizes my current thinking on the topic. Short summary: there is heterogeneity in dyslexia and we need to stop asking “what is the cause” and switch to considering the confluence of factors onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
