Regarding the "Opioid-Crisis" in the US: Are there/have there been any regulations how many opioid-meds doctors can prescribe a patient (i.e. per month)?

@DrGBuckingham Here we have an open room (normal room, which is also used for the lectures) where you can go once a week for ~2h to ask questions or work with others or alone.

I know people will get upset, but this is utter shit and needs to be called out. I have heard advice like this in many forms, in many places. We should design coursework such that is doable in 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. More is not inclusive (and NOT effective!)

Your daily reminder that the insulin I’ve used for 23 years, Humalog, has gone from $21 a vial to $278 a vial with no changes to the insulin or even the packaging. That’s a 1200% increase on a hormone every human requires to live, but my body can’t make. I die in 48 hours w/o it

The brain is the most terrifying thing in the universe. No-one was scared until brains came along.

@sarcastic_f @charliejane @Annaleen I'm so sorry to hear this! :( Can't imagine how much you must miss her and how hard these times must be for you.I really hope you have some kind of support, even if that doesn't make the loss smaller. Wish the best for the coming days and weeks!(Sorry don't know the right words)

@sarcastic_f Yes, it's really hard to watch (in general). Understandably it must be especially hard for you... :(

This was an excellent 30 min documentary (in German with English subtitles). Initial example of real world consequences of predatory publishing hard (for me) to watch. #cancer #quackery

Open science tweeps, I try to put all my papers on arXiV. But where should I put short abstracts which arXiV doesn't accept? (Other than my website, which I still need to do)?

@wandedob Thanks!

[Non Significance @non_sig]

@wandedob But shouldn't it be easy to find somebody then? Btw, do you know a good intro-text on machine learing?

Why I Became a Neuroscientist https://t.co/i9jxY0j6qc I wonder about the question of how scientists choose a discipline. New post!
