@VictorLamme ohw, I always thought the answer to "What is IIT about?" is 42....

[Martijn Wokke @Wokkinho]

@CelesteDiWind @hakwanlau I was wondering the same thing, but then recalled 'insects are conscious' statements. Although I agree that they *may* be conscious (to speculate from a chair with a whiskey), you cannot make such a claim at all at the moment, and it seems to stimulate unscientific thinking.

Saturday evening. Thousands gather in front of the criminal Netanyahu's house to protest for the hostages and call for peace! We need better leaders. Down with this horrible, racist , militant government. Peace!

more jobs: postdoc openings in Korea, w/ *pathway to independence*. the ideal candidate has experience in calcium/optical imaging or electrophysiology in behaving mice, & has strong interests in the prefrontal cortex, perception (any modality), and/or neurovascular coupling... 1/

📢I am hiring a PhD candidate! Are you passionate about unraveling the mysteries of consciousness? And do you want to delve into fMRI, pupillometry, and information theory to understand how sensory predictions shape our perception of color? Apply here: https://t.co/KsTqpZA5tX

🧠🎉 Super excited to see my work with the incomparable @BiyuHe out in JCoN!!! A short 🧵below on the neural mechanisms determining the duration of spontaneous perceptual behavior (1/8) https://t.co/mzJrL5s9cn

@VictorLamme I was thinking about olives (Jaén), tapas, some fish, tomatoes, avocados (Motril). But maybe I'm just hungry at the moment....

[Martijn Wokke @Wokkinho]

@VictorLamme pfff finally, no more boring discussions! ;)

[Medha Shekhar @Mynameismedha]

Excited to share new work with @DobyRahnev where we test convolutional neural networks on a range of perceptual tasks involving stimulus energy manipulations (joint changes in stimulus intensity and variability): https://t.co/62KDTrniCV

As this paper is getting traction, let me share 5 major technical concerns in this thread:

Discrimination based on nationality is not allowed @UniCredit_PR . Maybe time for some more formal legal steps.

[Martijn Wokke @Wokkinho]

@n_faivre Congrats, wonderful news!!!

[Biyu Jade He @BiyuHe]

Tenured at NYU.
I'd like to thank all those who wrote me letters. I'm beyond grateful to my past and present mentors, mentees, colleagues and peers who have inspired and challenged me, and made me into a better scientist.

[Martijn Wokke @Wokkinho]

@BiyuHe Wonderful news! NYU is the lucky one here! Congratulations!

[Martijn Wokke @Wokkinho]

If we had used/start using "theory" (vs "hypothesis") more appropriately, would this have saved us a lot of unnecessary (twitter) drama? And how many "theories" of consciousness would there still be?

[Martijn Wokke @Wokkinho]

@iris_groen @SfNtweets Dropping by NY?

[Elisabeth Parés Pujolràs @elisabethpares]

Excited to be at #SfN23 #SfN2023! I'll be presenting a poster on the EEG correlates of normative belief updates on Monday 13th, with @spk3lly and @neuromurphy. Board TT17, 4-5pm - come say hi!
