Have been very much looking forward to this conference in december organized by @MonosovLab and Emmanual Procyk for a while. NOW It's finally open for registration!

@micahgallen @danc_labo there is always a standing invitation if you want to come to visit. Lyon is great all year around (except August, when it is too hot and everyone is gone on vacation).

33 MEGA Byte sounds rather large. not sure the german internet can handle that much data with their copper wires. Better send it on 33 floppy disks or even better as a truck full of punch cards....

Peak Germany is when the Minister of Education publicly states that her ministry could't send a requested pdf file... because it is 33MB big. 🥹

@ErdemPulcu @jonroiser shift to consumption taxes is going to increase wealth inequality and ultimately punish everyone except the richest. If you want to shift to wealth tax from income tax, that might actually help against wealth inequality, but consumption taxes can be a means to change behaviour

@nathanieldaw or even better, elementary school science fairs from the perspective of reviewer number two.

[Nils Kolling @NilsKolling]

@nathanieldaw I would pay good money to read a series of reviews of kids graduation ceromonies, plays and concerts in the style of a snobby NY times reviewer. Maybe as a sidething it could have michelin reviews of kids attempts at cooking ;) Reminds me of this website: https://t.co/5SdyJt1iNp

Dynamical and individualised approach of transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation effects in non‑human primates

Our last research with @jerome_sallet highlights the temporal dynamics of TUS on the brain in different targets and individuals.

@nico_schuck @nathanieldaw @behrenstimb Maybe finding the most boring topic could be a follow up to this paper? https://t.co/RwyANQZAEA

[Nils Kolling @NilsKolling]

There was a lot more in the paper, including contrasting motivational collapse trials with general motivational state, but I hope this little teaser made you interested enough in the paper to check it out!

[Nils Kolling @NilsKolling]

Our paper on task general motivational fluctuations and collapse is out! This is part of @jangrohn PhD and was done in collaboration with @JeromeSallet , Matthew Rushworth and many others who worked tirelessly to collect the data https://t.co/6GvFloLmBh more details in thread

[Nils Kolling @NilsKolling]

We then correlated motivational factor with brain activity across tasks, showing general collapse of activity in pgACC with motiv. collapse. Stimulation of same region improves motivation by reducing disengagement showing that this region causally contributes to task engagement!

🇪🇺EU citizens, please support our research & go vote in this week’s European elections. Don’t allow anti-science, anti-academic, anti-democracy platforms to dominate the EU parliament! 🇪🇺

[Nils Kolling @NilsKolling]

@nathanieldaw @behrenstimb don't discourage his genius strategy! I want to see Tim's next grant on grid-cells, the dark genome and the art of motor cycle maintenance.

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Today is #WorldBicycleDay.

We cycle towards a more sustainable future with the European Declaration
on Cycling.

It includes clear commitments to improving road safety and the quality and
quantity of cycling infrastructure across our Union.
