Mi casero me acaba de mandar esto. No tenía por qué hacerlo, pero puede pasar sin la cuota del alquiler y ha querido aportar su granito de arena. Me ha dejado sin palabras, la verdad. #gracias #COVID2019 #coronavirus

I should be qualified to comment on the covid-19 pandemic. I'm a computational/system biologist working on infectious diseases and have spent five years in a world class 'pandemic response modelling' unit. In this thread, I will summarise what I believe I (don't) know. (1/12)

Great read about how publishing low replicability studies doesn't make science less efficient, but quite the contrary! Perfect timing: one of my papers just got rejected, one of the reasons being that we haven't replicated our findings prior submission/publication

Good news:

Taking a #vacation is associated with an increased likelihood of getting a raise or a promotion.

No, I don’t care that it’s just a correlation.

I had been wondering about the connection between empathy and support of social hierarchies for a while. Thrilled to see some data on this!

[Jay Van Bavel, PhD @jayvanbavel]

Preference for hierarchy is associated with reduced empathy and increased counter-empathy towards others, especially out-group targets

1) In 2008 a salmon (yes the fish) was put through an MRI scanner. The salmon was shown a series of photographs of humans in social situations, and asked to determine the emotion of the person in the photo (yes, really).

Exciting new work out from @dongwon_oh and colleagues at @NatureHumBehav on how clothing-based cues of social status are systematically linked to impressions of competence. Dr. Jennifer Kubota and I summarize the findings and implications here:

Delighted to finally see this study out, conducted during my @snsf advanced postdoc with @dora_biro_ at @OxZooDept, with a fantastic team made of @AureFrick, Satoshi Hirata, Ikuma Adachi and the fantastic PRI chimpanzees. A short thread follows. 1/n https://t.co/D4o1HQtwDj

@jayvanbavel So the only thing neither men nor women really recover from is unemployment. It's easier/quicker to get over a divorce or death of a spouse. Is this it? Wow!

[Cristina Galusca @CGalusca]

@alepebel @_minecogob @llfuentemilla @MorenoBote Genial! Enhorabuena, disfruta de tus nuevas aventuras!

[Cristina Galusca @CGalusca]

Overall useful advice on what to work on for a successful career in science. Yet, to sum it up: excel at everything and work hard on all possible skills, including being a unicorn :)

On my reading list! How did I miss this cool paper about sleep and social interactions?

Very cool and ambitious interdisciplinary project about the universality of music! Different from your every day science project. Very inspiring to see new ways of doing things and addressing old questions
