Since this scene was a mix of 2D and 3D animation, it was extremely complex and challenging to make work. I had to make sure all the action timing was prepared in advance. Many people worked incredibly hard to make this possible

we live in age of great moral panics about things that don’t matter and zero moral outrage over some of the most egregious societal sins we’ve ever seen

We work hard to factor "noise" out of behavior. But the brain doesn't
Strip away noise and you miss what the brain evolved to do
In this 2022 paper, we found premotor (M2) corticostriatal circuits encode a broad behavioral history beyond action + reward👇

Something every academic should subscribe to. Jargon and showboating helps no one.

[David Perell Clips @PerellClips]

Academics write for each other, not for people.

Steven Pinker has spent over four decades doing the opposite, and thinks current academic writing is "enormous wasted effort."

"There's an awful lot of brilliant work, really smart people in academia. Why are they doing it? Just to entertain each other? Taxpayers pay for it. It should be accessible. Why should I have to read a paragraph five or six times?

It gets under my skin when academics devote so much brainpower into the scholarship and then just blow off the essential task of letting the world know what you've done."

【起きたまま睡眠!?】眠らなくても、睡眠中と同じ脳活動パターンを人工的に作り出せば、あたかも睡眠をとったかのように脳がリフレッシュ（睡眠圧が低下し記憶力も回復）するそうです。マウスでの実証。今日の『ネイチャー神経科学』誌より→ https://t.co/WDufcab6ze

@graciouswoodsy agreed, its the same clusterf*ck still. let us know if you ever decide to rejoin the madness.

[Oded Rechavi @OdedRechavi]

A PhD's success depends more on the fit between the student, the advisor, and the lab than on the specific topic being studied (it barely matters at all).

Similarly, a lab's success depends more on how excited (or miserable) its researchers are than on the precise project they are working on (it could be virtually anything).

This information isn't in papers or in grant proposals, you have to ask the researchers.

If Heated Rivalry managed to make even hockey interesting, think what a Heated Rivalry-inspired Dispatch does for our recent paper.
Thanks @J9Kwapis and Chad Brunswick for the insightful Dispatch in @CurrentBiology!

@BohannZhao This is amazing. Thanks Bohan!!

So I built a small tool that merges Allen CCFv3 with the traditional bregma-relative coordinate system (calibrated with Paxinos & Franklin's Atlas). Click any coronal or sagittal section, and get coordinates instantly.

[Prof. Michael Lin @MichaelLinLab]

Instead of spending years mastering surgery, trainees could begin asking scientific questions almost immediately.

The idea is similar to chemistry CROs or NGS companies where you can get complex procedures done for less cost than doing it in-house, if you count a trainee's time.

Our latest paper is out in @NatureNeuro! Cheese3D🧀 enables sensitive, quantitative analysis of whole-face dynamics in mice.

Manuscript: https://t.co/jL5z9snmbI
Code: https://t.co/bsw6AiA58w

Led by Kyle Daruwalla & Irene Nozal Martin, with contributions from the entire lab.

ethan hawke said something i haven’t stopped thinking about — we usually move past art like we have no need for it, until loss enters our life and suddenly nothing ordinary can hold what we’re feeling

[Dr. Emily A. Aery Jones @EmilyAeryJones]

The Aery Jones lab is recruiting another postdoc! If you're interested in neural mechs of spatial memory, high-density recordings, cool tasks (like cricket hunting), and/or aging and Alzheimer's, come check us out: https://t.co/smTojuAk6G. Please pass along to your friends :D
