No I don't!

I actually want to save time from doing useless admin stuff, so I can spend MORE time reading, understanding and writing research papers!

Werner Reichardt, credited with discovering the neural circuitry for motion detection in the retina in the 1950s, did so on borrowed time.
As a young student, Werner Reichardt was a pupil in the laboratory of Hans Erich Hollmann, a pioneer of ultra-shortwave communication. Because of his knowledge he was drafted in 1941 to the German air force as a radio technician.There he met members of the resistance and established a covert radio connection with the Western Allies. In 1944 Reichardt was arrested by the Gestapo and sentenced to death, but escaped, and hid in Berlin until the end of the war.

New paper out in @commsbio.nature.com!

🔢 We reveal how the brain represents numerosity across the entire visual system, from early visual areas to high-level association cortices.

This should be bigger news - the Dutch parliament decided to strongly reduce non-human primates experiments. Subsidy for the large primate center - which includes important virology research unique in Europe - is gradually reduced to zero by 2030. Going towards the end of NHP research in NL...

I've seen the Y-shape as well, but assumed it was a methodological artefact from cortical folding, partial volume, segmentation, or interpolation. Similar to what used to happen routinely with dorsal V2/V3 at lower resolutions. Have you tried scanning the same participant at higher resolutions?
