SUMMARY:The 7 plagues of neuroimaging studies by Prof Henning Tiemeier
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker \nHenning Tiemeier is a Professor of Social and Behavioural Science and the Sumner and Esther Feldberg Chair of Maternal and Child Health at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Prof Tiemeier received both his medical and sociological degree from the University of Bonn\, Germany\, and his PhD from the Erasmus University in Rotterdam\, Netherlands. Henning has published extensively on the aetiology of child developmental problems with a particular focus on prenatal exposures. Most of his research was performed in population-based cohort studies and his work often takes a neurodevelopmental approach. He is a principal investigator of the Generation R Study\, a large pre-birth cohort in Rotterdam\, that enrolled nearly 10\,000 mothers and their children. \nAbout the talk \nProf Tiemeier talks about some of the issues in neuroimaging research.

SUMMARY:Is there a reproducibility crisis in science? by Dr Samuel Westwood
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker \nSamuel Westwood was awarded his PhD in Neuroscience from Aston University\, Birmingham in 2018. He joined King’s College London in 2017 as a post-doctoral research associate in the Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Department and is investigating the effectiveness of combining cognitive training and non-invasive brain stimulation in improving inattention and self-control in boys with ADHD. He founded and co-organised the RIOT Science Club and the King’s Open Research Group Initiative. Sam is also the local lead for the UK Reproducibility Network. \nAbout the talk \nDr Samuel Westwood will give a talk on whether there is a reproducibility crisis in science\, focusing on its causes: perverse incentives and questionable research practices.

SUMMARY:The unconscious mind by Prof David Shanks
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker \nDavid Shanks is Professor of Psychology and Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Brain Sciences at University College London (UCL)\, and a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. Previously he was Head of Psychology at UCL from 2003-17. His research falls across a number of topics in experimental cognitive psychology\, including learning\, memory\, judgment and decision-making\, and he is the author (with Newell and Lagnado) of Straight choices: The psychology of decision making (2nd ed.\, 2015). A number of his early replication studies in the field of ‘social priming’ led to an enduring interest in and contribution to debates about research transparency. \nAbout the talk \nProfessor Shanks talks about the important role in the reproducibility crisis played by the unchallenged\, pervasive and probably false conception of the unconscious mind which dominates much thinking in psychology and neuroscience.

SUMMARY:Open science for early career researchers by Alexandra Lautarescu
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker \nAlexandra Lautarescu is a PhD student based in the Department of Perinatal Imaging and Health at St Thomas’ Hospital. She earned a BSc(Hons) in Psychology from University of Exeter in 2011\, followed by an MPhil in Medical Sciences (Psychiatry) from the University of Cambridge.

SUMMARY:Meta-analysis in R by Dr Isabel Yorke
DESCRIPTION:About the speaker  \nDr Isabel Yorke completed her MSc at the SGDP\, and was awarded her PhD investigating environmental factors that contribute to additional mental health problems in people with ASD. \nAbout the talk \nDr Yorke will give a basic introduction to key meta-analytic techniques\, using the R package Metafor. She will cover organising input data\, calculating/converting between effect sizes\, applying models to pool effect sizes\, producing plots (e.g. forest and funnel plots) and (time permitting) meta-regression\, subset analysis\, sensitivity analysis and interpreting results from these functions. We will use examples from meta-analyses of correlations and of group differences.  \nDisclaimer from Dr Yorke: I will be showing you various meta-analytic methods that I am familiar with. I am by no means a meta-analysis or R expert! There are surely alternative\, possibly even better\, ways of doing the things I will show you – but these are ways that I have found worked for my purposes. Please feel free to ask questions or make suggestions – we can discuss limitations and merits of different methods and I’m sure I will learn from the session too.
