While the newly awarded Autism Data Science Initiative projects look “outstanding,” concerns remain over the program’s abnormal and opaque review process.

Autism researchers remain concerned about NIH data project
An atypical funding mechanism, short timeline and opaque review process had generated concern over the quality of projects that would be selected.

Did you know that facial expressions reveal more than meets the eye? 🤯

Our new study shows that even a mouse's face 🐭 can reflect hidden neural computations🧠. Turns out, facial expressions are more than just emotions!

Building reproducible systems across labs is possible, even in large-scale neuroscience. You just need rigor, collaboration and the willingness to look your own practices in the eye, writes Anne Churchland.

A method for capturing neuronal activity using fMRI excited the neuroimaging field but couldn’t be replicated. Today, the authors of the original paper retracted their work.

I remember learning in my undergraduate degree - in ~1996 - that Huntington's was the first movement disorder to be given a clear explanation. It has a *relatively* simple genetic cause, compared to the others.

30 years on, a breakthrough treatment.

Good science takes time, but it can really work.

Truly an amazing breakthrough for one of the cruelest diseases that afflicts humanity.

Here’s hoping the results bear out and can be operationalized at scale.
