Maybe it's an average and there are a select few outliers who spend a lot of time chatting up Grok?

Despite These Times...my department is hiring! I really like my department, we have a good mix of disciplines and organisms and we're really low-drama. We also get pizza at faculty meeting. So if you're a computational and structural biologist, join us! 🧪 jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/260...

It’s not for everyone, but getting into Jiujistu was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Skill development, physical fitness, and 6+ years in and I have made a set of life-long friendships with people from all walks of life. It’s a firewall between me and my existential life crises.

Such a wonderful milestone on this incredibly important paper!

I wish people on the both sides of the political spectrum would realize that the weapons they use to inflict harm on their "opponents" will inevitably be turned on them in the future.

Pack it up everyone they solved autism.

Some of the nicest and most supportive people you’ll ever meet.

My apolgies if we did not specify this clearly enough. Overhead costs can include recruitment, associated staff, additional MRI modalities, other biomarkers, etc. So this does not only reflect the cost of the fMRI scan itself. For example the costs of clinicians to screen, RAs to collect data, etc.
