After a high dose of psilocybin, the brain desynchronizes at a massive scale, causing loss of our sense of self, time, and space. This may drive the burst of plasticity caused by psychedelics. The next day, brain activity has largely returned to normal, but an echo remains – a reset of circuits critical to the sense of self.

Stats is broken. Causal inference is broken. Together they are less broken. I will teach a 3h online course in September, aimed at ppl who have tried to understand connections btw causal inference & statistical inference but were discouraged by notation & puffery. @StatHorizons
"The papers in this special issue provide an indication
of the power of understanding the role of ecosystem engineering and niche construction to shed light on the evolutionary dynamics of marine and terrestrial ecosystems through empirical case studies and modelling. But fully realizing the potential demands expanding the rigor of these approaches beyond the anecdotal".
New paper by Doug Erwin on the evolutionary implications of ecosystem engineering and niche construction.

New study uses a theoretical model to help validate the premise that variation in the stable isotope values of consumers is indicative of variation in their diet. It also investigates where other factors might confound this relationship #SIA#foodwebs https://t.co/kAX8xUFMFa
..."we illustrate how (i) multidimensional intraspecific niche variation and (ii) the spatiotemporal context of interactions between conspecifics scale up to shape emergent patterns of the population niche." 📊..paper by @raulcpereira: https://t.co/JPJfKSjcrF
I have an internship open in my group: https://t.co/aY2kg9zOpa
The prerequisite for the application is enrollment at a university or college over the entire period of employment (i.e. in a bachelor's or master’s degree program in progress but not yet completed).

New in @ScienceMagazine!
What's the role of behavior in evolution? Is curiosity linked to diversification? And how is curiosity encoded in the DNA?
These questions motivated our study: https://t.co/Ne3xVcxPnN
