"I think one exciting solution is to re-conceptualize curiosity as the seeking of information links -- not just the information, but the links between that information." ~ @DaniSBassett

Curiosity = connecting dots! Love this covno with @DaniSBassett @Penn They use systems theory to understand the unique information structures we each build as we exercise and express our curiosity. Fascinating -- and lovely. lynnborton.com/2020/03/11/net…

It's still not quite sunk in that @MarinaBazhydai and I have funding from @LeverhulmeTrust to run a 5-year project about children's curiosity. Beyond excited to collate and develop measures of #curiosity and test their longitudinal relationships with #learning and #wellbeing!

@MonosovLab Well-deserved recognition for the future of the field. If there are young investigators you think I should be talking to, please send them my way. I love talking with and supporting up-and-comers! #choosetobecurious

Thanks @Choose2BCurious ! It was a pleasure to discuss this and to promote the fields’ efforts (which is really powered by the talented post docs and junior PIs in our labs and Departments)

Wow - convo with Ilya Monosov takes us to importance of #neuroscience & info seeking for fate of humanity & how achieving an "engineer's understanding" of brain could be helpful for living w/ mental health challenges like OCD. #choosetobecurious lynnborton.com/2023/11/30/why…

“The driving principle is to get a mechanistic understanding of cognition at the lowest level possible…but the way to get there is through a large amount of exploration. And partly that’s because, I think at this moment, we don’t really know how the brain works.” ~ Ilya Monosov
