Insecure people strive to prove their intelligence. They're quick to assure us that they have the answer—they're determined to be right.

Secure people aim to improve their intelligence. They're quick to speak up when they have questions—they're focused on getting it right.

Exploring the future of newborn screening with genome sequencing, we highlight how the lessons learned from GUARDIAN and other studies are shaping a pathway toward universal and equitable genomic screening. To learn more: https://t.co/JfycjeB9v7 #GUARDIANStudy

The hallmark of expertise is no longer how much you know. It's how well you synthesize.

Information scarcity rewarded knowledge acquisition. Information abundance requires pattern recognition.

It's not enough to collect facts. The future belongs to those who connect dots.

Congratulations Fenna!! 🎉

[fenna krienen @fennamk]

not a Nobel but still pretty exciting to receive a New Innovator Award from the @NIH_CommonFund! We'll be using it to study the developmental origins of primate/human brain innovations @PrincetonNeuro. #NIHHighRisk

[Ed Clayton @edcclayton]

Really excited that @NatEyeInstitute is participating in this program! Having run a summer program for a number of years, they are highly rewarding for everyone involved. Would love to see (and support!) a number of vision summer programs around the country!

There will never be anyone quite like Jim. I am profoundly sad.

[Simons Foundation @SimonsFdn]

It is with great sadness that the Simons Foundation announces the death of its co-founder and chair emeritus, James Harris Simons. Jim was an award-winning mathematician, a legendary investor and a generous philanthropist. https://t.co/w48DhauUVj

To everyone who has been shocked and depressed by the staggering 40% cut to the BRAIN Initiative: we have a voice!

Outside Witness Testimony (aka written testimony) for the FY 2025 appropriations cycle is ongoing. Deadline for the House side is Friday May 3 and the Senate side is Friday May 24.

Let's all write in with our thoughts about what this cut means for scientific progress and for medical advances to help patients suffering the most devastating neurological and psychiatric illnesses.

Please see instruction links and more information here:

It was a tremendous privilege to spend some time in DC telling our elected officials about the impact of our BRAIN Initiative project on depression DBS and stressing the critical need for robust research funding.

[Sebastian Seung @SebastianSeung]

Quick, what have we learned from the BRAIN Initiative? One sentence or less please.

[Hongkui Zeng @HongkuiZeng]

This is a landmark achievement that will open the door for many future investigations of the brain’s function, development and evolution. Congrats to everyone who has contributed to this monumental effort. Big thanks to the @NIH #studyBRAIN Initiative for supporting this project.

What makes the human brain unique?

Most diseases of the human brain are only seen in humans. By understanding what makes the human brain different, we can understand more about these unique diseases.

What makes us human?

Today in @ScienceMagazine, a large research consortium funded by @NIH #studyBRAIN initiative shared new insights on how human brain cells differ from other humans and our closest primate relatives.

@vancityflyguy @kalhorlab @jasonyilab Not too shabby! Hanging in there! 😂 Warms my heart to see you all thriving! 💙👏

[NIH Innovates @NIH_Innovates]

New research funded by the @NIH #BRAINInitiative reveals the genetic, cellular, and structural makeup of the human brain and nonhuman primate brain. These detailed brain cell maps help develop new therapies for people with brain disorders. https://t.co/natx40XESe #studyBRAIN

[Alice Luo Clayton @AliceLClayton]

Wow! Another landmark batch of papers from NIH BRAIN Initiative Cell Census Network! Congrats to all!! 😍👏🎊🧠#studybrain
