I’m a hopeless interdisciplinarian 😅 Just found this CogSci Mind Challenge (cognitivesciencesociety.org/cogsci-mind-...) video where scientists try to explain tricky concepts to kids. In this one, they try to figure out why I have the memory of a starfish: youtu.be/exPn7UsF35w?... , and I loved it.

Applications for the ninth summer school on statistical methods for linguistics and psychology close on April 1, 2025. Every year people contact me saying they missed the call, so here it is again :)
