Assistant Professor Sebastian Speer at Texas A&M University is recruiting PhD students for the Coupled Minds Lab in the Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences. The lab studies how conversations shape the way people connect, change their minds, and learn. Research topics include how people develop new ideas and learn together, how conversations build consensus or resolve conflict, and how these processes change when humans interact with AI. Methodologically, the group combines fMRI hypersca...
