MR guided focused ultrasound surgery is an effective and uprising treatment option for Essential tremor. But where is the optimal site to sonicate? Which spots to avoid due to side-effects?

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago.
Zero edits. No recoloring. No cropping. Nothing. Just straight up reality. 🦑

For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

Blown away after visiting INM-1 led by Katrin Amunts this Monday – Markus Axer and her showed us their setup of acquiring whole-brain slices (e.g. 7,000 of them to make up Bigbrain 1) – and the mesmerizing effects of polarized light on cryosectioned (raw) brain sections as can be seen in the video.

Super happy to have one of the official iconic BigBrain trophies on my desk after giving a keynote at the recent HIBALL summit.
Even though it was a nuisance and led to lots of issues in the BigBrain 1 space, this uniquely skewed brain shape is now iconic and went into the annals of neuroscience.
