Honored and grateful to have received the Rising Star Award at #bga2024. A huge thank you to the organizers for a wonderful week of science and my colleagues and supervisors for their unwavering support.

A plea for all at #icis2024 to use the microphones to ask your questions, even in small rooms. It cruciay important for hard of hearing people but also helps all of us follow the discussion: hearingtracker.com/news/why-you-s… 😀

Can we please make standard a minimum distance between posters? the poster session at #CogSci2024 is close to #emnlp2023 level of bad 😓

We've moved 🇳🇱➡️🇳🇴! 🤩 Thrilled to spend the year as a #VisitingProfessor, while supporting my amazing lab at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Grateful to my academic hosts at CREATE and Psychology in Oslo. Ready for new adventures! #ERCStG #VIDI

For those in Oslo 🇳🇴, I'll be giving an open #seminar this Thursday on "Using Genetic Tools to Study Educational Inequality". Hope to see you there! PROMENTA UiO UiO - Psykologisk Institutt Det utdanningsvitskaplege fakultet (UiO) Host: Monica Melby-Lervåg uv.uio.no/create/english…
