“I don’t care how you teach. I care about the impact of your teaching.” —John Hattie at #APS2025
At the APS–David Myers Distinguished Lecture, Hattie challenged educators to shift focus from delivery methods to how students actually learn. #Teaching #Learning

Happy to be at #APS2025, great science and community! And an unexpected wonderful reunion after >10 years with two previous postdocs in my group: Jayanta Chatterjee and Yansong Wang!
Heading to sunny San Diego for the American Peptide Symposium 2025! Excited to meet fellow scientists who are passionate about peptides, innovation, and collaboration. See you there! 🌴🔬

This week on the #ISpyPhysiology blog, APS member and #APS2025 blogger @macystahl tells us about her experience at #APSHillDay and becoming a #ScienceAdvocate: ow.ly/VSzv50W0kJY #advocacy #SciPol 🧪
Cover of the journal Physiology is superimposed on a blurred hallway. The cover features audience members sitting and listening to a scientific talk.
Whether you joined us in Baltimore for #APS2025 or couldn't make it this year, here's your chance to explore the outstanding #physiology research presented at the Summit. Abstracts are now available to read online in the journal Physiology: ow.ly/7SSX50VRh4W 🧪

Had a blast teaching SEM at #APS2025! Great group of workshop attendees asking thoughtful, engaging questions. Hopefully folks learned something and had fun in the process!
APS Day 2 - the parallel sessions are on the Mall, right?!

It’s affect all the way down.

We haven’t solved the problem of human motivation because it’s unsolvable (in current form). A solution: Motivation centers on a single source of value - affect.

The brain does NOT respect the boundaries of standard mental terms - there are not separate “territories” for perception, cognition, action, emotion, or motivation.
Spicy 🔥 take by Luiz Pessoa (I’m convinced!)
#SSM2025 #APS2025
We learn how the world works by exploring how different actions produce different outcomes (“empowerment”). Kids & adults prioritize information gain in early exploration of MineCraft, but shift to empowerment in later stages. Empowerment enables causal learning. Allison Gopnik #SSM2025 #APS2025
Instead they suggest two things: that who we are shapes what we can and do think. And that this means both that we are limited and ALSO that each of us “sees possibilities that the other cannot.” 2/2
KILLER talk by Laura Schulz
#SSM2025 #APS2025
Imagine two facts:
A) A pizza cutter can be used for cutting up herbs
B) Ancient Egyptians used bread as currency
If you could get more facts like Fact A, or more facts like Fact B, which would you choose?

What makes us curious? We feel curious about what’s in front of us - what we can learn now, not broader more abstract goals. And - we don’t care how hard or easy it is. We’re equally curious if we have to work hard for the answer, or it’s easy to find out. @emilyliquin.bsky.social #APS2025 #SSM2025
Why do we (sometimes) do boring things? Despite wanting interesting lives, sometimes we end up making boring choices - either bc we HAVE to (external pressures) or because we don’t fully realize how meaningful our choices could be. Great time presenting new work from the lab at #SSM2025 #APS2025
The CCS lab is en route to #APS2025! Come check out our exciting research tomorrow and Sunday 🤩

We feel pleasure 1) the closer we get to our goals and 2) the more meaningful those goals are to us. Anhedonia arises when those goals are too far off or lose meaning. Very cool new computational work by Anna Hall #APS2025 #SSM2025
Why do we like to learn new things? Learning can be intrinsically rewarding - but more importantly, we anticipate that learning new skills will increase our competence that will allow us to do new things in the future. This prediction is key to intrinsic motivation. Yang Xiang #APS2025 #SSM2025
How long SHOULD we take to make a decision? At some point the costs of deliberation outweigh the benefits - but that’s NOT how we decide. Instead we try to get as much info as possible. And the more we care about information, the faster we learn, which pays off. Javier Masis. #SSM2025 #APS2025
Why do gamblers and basketball players get “in the zone”? David Melnikoff suggests we feel “flow” when we don’t know what will happen next and anticipate that our next actions will gives us lots of info (information gain). And we enjoy that.

Ever pull an all-nighter…to finish work due months from now? Of course not. As you get closer to a deadline, that deadline pressure flips effort from something costly to be avoided m to something valuable to be pursued. @brainapps.bsky.social #SSM2025 #APS2025
Imagine you have to cross out the letter “E” on a page filled with letters. Would you rather:
1. Cross out every E
2. Follow a bunch of arcane rules to cross out every E + earn a $1 charitable donation
