Neat finding! I respect your commitment to the long game.

Wonderful news! Looking forward to seeing what you do there.

That article is full of gems like "Catholics maintained the men were saved by angels or by the intercession of the Virgin Mary, who caught them; later Protestant pamphleteers asserted that they survived due to falling onto a dung heap"

How do we facilitate working across institutions and borders to improve sensorimotor research and health?
Join us for an evening of discussing the future of technology and collaboration in sensorimotor neuroscience. Made possible by the DWIH, held at NYULH!

The working title of this project was “super models”, but we chickened out in carrying that terminology through. We were worried anyone was gonna think we were making fun of human supermodels, or worse, ion channels!! And we weren’t sure blue steel was the right association for a CA++ channel…

RIP Jane Goodall.

Sharing this photo of Skosha, one of the chimpanzees she studied. I took this photo in Gombe Stream, Tanzania, in November 2000.

This is great. You might also read me and @juststimming.bsky.social on “profound autism.” It’s one of the pieces I’m most proud of.

Applying for the neuroscience/psych position at Baylor University (Waco)? Take a look at the last question on the app. To be 100% clear: I think it's great to be upfront about institutional values in this way.

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."

Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.

Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.

We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.
