Don't forget - poster abstract submissions for #ACNP2026 are due *this Thursday*, August 28th ⌛️

My lab has an open post-doc position! We will begin reviewing applications as they come in. The post-doc will work with a vibrant research team at Penn State in the Department of Psychology and the Child Study Center. psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/PSU_Academic... 1/3

Texas politicians could've passed bills to help their constituents, such as supporting communities impacted by the recent floods. Instead, they chose to target trans people.

There is no solace for NIH funded researchers in this Supreme Court decision. Grants that were ripped away on dubious grounds, restored by a reasonable judge are now again terminated by an out-of-control Supreme Court. Labs will shutter, people will lose jobs. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

I've been thinking a lot about the preprint in terms of my own career. I grew up academically in computational labs. My papers were abstract early on and they only got more abstract as I progressed. The model was: find a new exciting mathematical tool. Apply it to brain imaging data. Write it up. 1/

Personalized Adaptive Cortical Electro-stimulation (PACE) in Treatment-Resistant Depression Punchline: PERSONALIZED network neuroscience works. *Easily* the most important paper I’ve been part of. Read the manuscript for details. Watch the movies for *amazing* testimonial. 1/2

Mary K Gaillard, a theorist who had a knack for telling experimental physicists where to look, died in her home on May 23 at 86. Dr. Gaillard was an unpaid scientist at CERN for more than a decade, & the first woman physicist hired & tenured at Berkeley: www.nytimes.com/2025/07/31/s...

An exciting collaboration is underway. @thetransmitter.bsky.social is partnering with @neuromatch.bsky.social to serve the computational neuroscience community and help connect neuroscientists across all career stages. www.thetransmitter.org/neuromatch-p... #neuroskyence

We have argued that the brain’s Action Mode Network controls functions required for goal-directed behavior. www.nature.com/articles/s41... Now, in new work, we show that AMN contains distinct subnetworks for making decisions, implementing actions, and processing feedback. doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

Congrats to Dr. Angela Santee, our lab's newest PhD!! 👩‍🎓 Angela has been a rock star student, and true to form she produced & ably defended a rock star dissertation.🤘I miss having her in the lab, but am thrilled she'll stay across the street at URMC Psychiatry for postdoc! @urochester.bsky.social

If Congress approves the cuts proposed by the White House, the number of early-career researchers it supports could fall by 78%: from 95,700 students and postdocs this year to 21,400 in 2026 www.science.org/content/article/it-s-nightmare-u-s-funding-cuts-threaten-academic-science-jobs-all-levels

I think this post got me blocked by two people on here, so I'm reposting since it's apparently quite edgy.

I can't stress enough how close U.S. science is to the cliff. "Numbers released in May by the National Science Foundation (NSF) indicate that if Congress approves the cuts to the agency proposed by the White House, the number of early-career researchers it supports could fall by 78%" (@science.org)

Alert! ... for the child development world! @fluxsociety.bsky.social @fitngin.bsky.social ‪ The Healthy Brain and Child Development (HBCD) Study has released its first data wave - it’s massive. Check here: docs.hbcdstudy.org and here: nbdc-datahub.org Here’s why it matters 🧠🍼

“As a medical researcher, it’s hard for me to understand why the way the undergraduate campus may or may not have dealt with antisemitism impacts the treatment or cures for cancer, heart disease, atrial fibrillation,” Passman said. 7/n

"Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants. Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. Hispanic PIs and those with disabilities were twice as likely to lose a grant."

FWIW, NIH had already silently barred Harvard and four other schools from receiving funds — and agency staff were forbidden from telling applicants and grantees about it. bsky.app/profile/maxk...

All right, scientists. 🧪 The Trump administration is trying to break scientific expertise in the civil service. This will affect #NIH program staff. Red 🚨. It's your job to submit comments by 5/23 saying that's a terrible idea! This group has info: www.friendsofbls.org/comment-temp...

Thinking about devastating cuts to NSF: US gov-funded science has been the engine upon which most of the tech wealth was generated. But the oligarchs (currently hoarding much of that $) think it’s their own brilliance & not the accident of standing close to the scientific engine that made them rich.

Science is under threat in the US. @elife.bsky.social have commissioned a series of articles discussing the implications and what we can do. The first three articles are now live. More to follow: elifesciences.org/articles/106... elifesciences.org/articles/106... elifesciences.org/articles/106...

At a time of massive inequality, Trump's budget is breathtaking in its degree of cruelty. It slashes funding for health care, housing & education that the working class desperately needs in order to pay for more tax breaks for billionaires & the Pentagon. That is morally obscene.

Excited that we are recruiting for a new postdoctoral program in Cognitive, Computational, and Systems Neuroscience at #WashU! Get in touch if you have questions! sites.wustl.edu/systemsneuro...
