New Open dataset alert: 🧠 Introducing "Spacetop" – a massive multimodal fMRI dataset that bridges naturalistic and experimental neuroscience! N = 101 x 6 hours each = 606 functional iso-hours combining movies, pain, faces, theory-of-mind and other cognitive tasks! 🧵below

github.com/pmolfese/NIf... Continuing to iterate on Quick Look Previews for NIfTI files. Now works with dark mode on macOS 15 and later. New Makefile to simplify compilation and install: make all && make install. Details on GitHub. #nifti #mri #quicklook #neuroimaging

Releasing a NIfTI Quick Look tool compatible with macOS 15+. This is necessary since Apple significantly changed those frameworks and broke the (legendary?) Gary Zhang's old NIfTI plugin. PRs welcome! Download and build with Xcode: github.com/pmolfese/NIf... #mri #macOS #nifti #neuroscience #science

happy saint patrick's day everyone

Come and work with us at @thechbh.bsky.social, we have a position for a full Professor in Human/Cognitive/Translational Neuroscience. Please circulate and get in touch for an informal chat. www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DLE056/p...

please retweet this ad for a tenured-research position in fMRI at ultra-high. Join us!

ISMRM Ultra-High Field / fMRI workshop in Annapolis, March 31'st to April 2'nd. The website is still being populated but so far looks exciting. Abstract deadline is January 10th. www.ismrm.org/workshops/20...

Neuroimaging Resource Alert: The NIH fMRI Summer Course has recorded talks available on YouTube from 2024, 2019, and 2018: fmrif.nimh.nih.gov/index.php/Su... And we're actively working on uploading talks from 2014-2017! #fmri #neuroimaging

Fellow scientists: If you are going to make broad public pronouncements based on your results, please have someone check your math first. The general population is losing faith in science, and reversals like this are a big part of the problem.

"We need to get [scientists] to realise that history and philosophy of science has much to contribute to science itself" A highly quotable episode with Editor-in-Chief of Science @holdenthorp.bsky.social Out on @hpspodcast.bsky.social now! #hps #philsci #histsci #sts🧪

You know the "🔹AI Overview" you get on Google Search? I discovered today that it's repeating as fact something I made up 7 years ago as a joke. "Kyloren syndrome" is a fictional disease I invented as part of a sting operation to prove that you can publish any nonsense in predatory journals...

When I will respond to your email

I don't know if it's being added to @micahgallen.com's Cog Neuro starter pack or a real growth of users, but I've seen more new followers today than any time before. I've been in the fields of neuroscience and fMRI methodology for a while. I mostly post about science, mentorship, and job listings.

77 people in the starter pack! What a network! And #protip: if you add #MRI or #MRS to your post, they will automatically show up in the MRISky feed, which is also included in the pack! go.bsky.app/EVqd6pe

Looks like the secret is out! #neuro www.thetransmitter.org/community/hu...

New-ish grant mechanism for building scientific software. Would be prime opportunity to fund existing and new projects to carry science forward.

The Center for Multimodal Neuroimaging (CMN) and the FMRIF are hosting a workshop September 4-5 on “Insights Into Cognitive And Neural Function Through Eye Tracking”. The hybrid workshop will be streamed on zoom, info: cmn.nimh.nih.gov/cmnworkshop2... #eyetracking #neuroscience #cognition

NIH Summer #fMRI Summer Course continues with great talks on #highres and #layerfMRI by @[email protected] and @layerfmri.bsky.social. Watch it here: youtu.be/IPCuW7x0d_8 #science

PSA for applications for graduate school: 1) your backstory can be interesting and not read like a pitch for the next limited-run Netflix show; 2) you’re allocated a maximum of 3 commas per sentence, with bonus points for the occasional semicolon; 3) passive voice is bad.

In our new paper out today at Trends in Cognitive Science, @lisik.bsky.social and I argue that social interaction perception is a visual process–computed by the visual system. (1/3) tinyurl.com/nhh2dhx #PsychSciSky #CogSci #CogPsyc #compneuro
