Invitation: ManyManys Webinar

Our partner network ManyManys is thrilled to invite you to an upcoming open webinar. This event is an excellent opportunity to delve deeper into the network and discover opportunities for joining the team. We will explore various aspects of reversal learning, its applications, and its potential for shaping the future of comparative cognition research. We will also hold a discussion around the methodological details of the reversal learning task currently under development for ManyManys 1.

23-25 October, on Zoom

Submissions are open! Any work (completed or in progress) related to big team science (ManyBabies or otherwise!) is welcome.
Deadline: July 31

Registration is also open! Fees are optional :)

Notice of listserv migrations

We are in the process of migrating all of our ManyBabies listservs to Google Groups linked to the manybabies.org domain. As lists are migrated, notifications will be sent to list subscribers to inform them of the move (these are not spam!). If you have any questions, please email Heidi (contact@manybabies.org).

Join project channels on Slack for support with data collection issues.

MB2: Theory of Mind

The MB2 Pupillometry spin-off, MB2P, will be having two meetings in August (7th and 23rd) to discuss planned analyses. If you'd like to get involved, email project lead Robert Hepach and/or join the #mb2p-pupillometry channel on Slack for more details.

MB3: Rule Learning

The MB3 analysis team is looking for pilot data to use in fine-tuning the analysis pipeline. If and when you have pilot data you can use the data upload form (use the PILOT participant data and PILOT Trial data fields; data can be from infant or adult participants). Don’t hesitate to submit even if you have just a single participant (the more labs the better!).

The MB3 Test-Retest spin-off project, MB3T, is on its way! Would you like to participate? If your lab is already collecting data for MB3 it can be as easy as setting up another appointment with your participant 5-9 days later! If you are interested in participating, please check the MB3T Lab Manual and email Anna Exner to indicate your interest.
