New opinion paper where we try to connect 2 different worlds. We apply the concept of explicit strategy from motor learning to make sense of a common practice in minimally invasive surgery. @CEPET_MQ @PsyMQ @mqcogbrain @Macquarie_Uni journals.lww.com/annalsofsurger…

We recently published a paper in @cogsci_soc highlighting our latest research exploring team coordination using a collaborative search task we developed, stylized as a multiplayer video game @PsyMQ @CEPET_MQ bit.ly/3G6epGz

The danger of advanced artificial intelligence controlling its own feedback theconversation.com/the-danger-of-… via @ConversationEDU

The more support team members you put around an athlete, the more noise it might create. For every person you add, lines of communication increase, increasing the chances of: ⬆️ Confusion ⬆️ Conflicting messages ⬆️ Distraction from performance

Excited this is finally out. Science is built on measurement, and new measurement methods require validation. Here we validate DeepLabCut, which has taken neuroscience by storm. @DeepLabCut @TrackingActions @TrackingPlumes @mqcogbrain @PsyMQ journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Congrats to Prof Mark Wiggins from @PsyMQ on the new book 'Introduction to Human Factors for Organisational Psychologists'. It introduces industrial/organisational psychologists to the tools necessary for applying human factors strategies & techniques. routledge.com/Introduction-t…
