Beginner or Advanced R User? 🤔

➡️ This cheat sheet is gold.

It summarizes all the best practices R developers should apply.

If some of it isn’t familiar, the first module of my https://t.co/wK6l6vXJe9 project explains exactly this!

Thanks so much @_wurli 🙏

New from our lab, MRS study showing lower GABA in medial PFC and insula, but not temporal cortex, in PTSD and trauma-exposed adults compared w healthy adults. GABA differences related to certain arousal symptoms. @AtSpared @NIMHgov 1/2 https://t.co/4lwNgj4fCU

Mantis shrimp have a huge number of photoreceptors (12) which SHOULD mean they can see way more colors than other animals (which mostly have 2-4)...

Neuroscientists: if you want to learn computational techniques apply to our online summer school: https://t.co/npGV80EmDn Please help reach out to the community that is not on twitter and language communities. This will be great.

Hello friends! While we are going through these unprecedented times, I wanted to share the main results of my PhD work, which is out today in Nature Neuroscience.
It studied how the brain perceives the experiences of daily life. (1/n)

[Caroline Ostrand (she/her) @carolineostrand]

@KordingLab Thanks so much for hosting. I was so impressed with how everyone was able to come together, in spite of everything going on. I also hope this starts a trend of online conferences. As an undergraduate, I really appreciated the accessibility (no registration fee/travel costs)!

[Tim Behrens @behrenstimb]

1700 people currently at #neuromatch2020, a conference which did not exist 3 weeks ago and all of them in the comfort of their own homes. Totally unbelievable. An amazing achievement by @KordingLab @neuralreckoning @titipat_a et al.
