Stop what you're doing and apply for this job.

No position on the accuracy of these claims BUT I did a little happy dance at, 'I looked at the open code and I think this metric is meaningless.' Because I'm old enough to remember when we didn't do open code and you had to take these things on trust 😬 This is how we get better people 💪💪💪

Thanks so much everybody for reposting this 🙏🙏🙏 Please please continue to share it among your networks. I'm hoping there's somebody out there who is as excited about this project as I am.

Passionate about women's mental health? Interested in brain stimulation? Excited by cutting edge neurotech? Come do a PhD with me! www.findaphd.com/phds/project... (thread)

Congrats Dr. Hommerson en Gefeliciteerd @dondersinst.bsky.social ! Any other Donders alumni remember their numbers? I just checked; I'm 193.

Neat! Folks arguing for a move from verbal theories into more formal theories in the context of environmental psychology. Seems like something @irisvanrooij.bsky.social and friends would support... see neat tutorial paper here psycnet.apa.org/record/2020-...

These are great people. Go work with them.

"Five people said they left Oxford in order to get away from Hewstone." Appalling.

Hey, @thechbh.bsky.social: Isn't official 'Rising Star of Neuroscience' @nadinedijkstra.bsky.social scheduled to give a talk at our institute next month? What's that? She IS? 😮😮😮😮

Happy International Day of LGBTQIA+ People In STEM! How are you celebrating it? #LGBTQSTEMDay #PrideInSTEM

We still have some places available for our thalamus workshop in January, including slots for attendee short talks (just submit a thalamus-related abstract). uobevents.eventsair.com/emerging-tec... @thechbh.bsky.social

An international collaboration fails to replicate one FUS (/TUS) protocol previously thought to change motor cortex excitability. We're firmly in the phase of 'okay, so what *really* works?' with FUS. Great to see these kinds of efforts to find robust effects 👍 direct.mit.edu/imag/article...

Always love seeing people make a big noise about their open M/EEG datasets. Go have fun with this one 👍

Love this. Congrats Sage 🙂

The brain represents the world around us as a series of neural states - stable patterns of activity that change as we move from one event to the next. New paper by @selmalugtmeijer.bsky.social showing that neural states get longer as people age. #PsychSciSky nature.com/articles/s42003-025-08792-4

I'm looking to create an advisory group for a project on Monotropism, an attention-based theory of autism and potentially ADHD. If you or anybody you know is interested, please fill out the form below. Thank you! forms.office.com/Pages/Respon...

Doing a lit search and finding many recent papers still using the jet colormap 😭😭😭 Please don't use this colormap for anything because it's not perceptually uniform (changes of equal size don't look equal) and not friendly to people with variant colour vision. Some alternatives below... <thread>

Looks like a great opportunity for someone with a background in brain stimulation. The Maastricht brainstim gang are very kind and collaborative and Maastricht is a lovely city🙂

Two framings 1: We're proud of <researcher> for getting <grant> because it's prestigious and really hard to get. 2: We're proud of <researcher> for getting <grant> because it enables them to do research that's really important. I see versions of 1 a lot but think 2 is MUCH better. Here's why 1/4

Really looking forward to reading this from @eelkespaak.bsky.social I love this kind of fundamental-assumptions-about-what-the-brain-is-doing stuff.

Is the the neuroimaging community (broadly conceived) submitting to 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲 again????? Not to be publication police but the shift had seemed major 1-2 years ago. Looking at the editorial board it seems to have serious scientists once more. Curious about thoughts of the community.

Ever wondered about the variety and depth of neuroscience research at the University of Birmingham (if not, why not?)? Seek no further: www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/pro... @thechbh.bsky.social @uob-sop.bsky.social @imh-uob.bsky.social

Goed bezig @stanvanpelt.bsky.social! Definitely picking this up next time I pass through NL.

Help out with a survey of TMS research practices!

The Sleep Network is up and running at the University of Birmingham, looking forward to talking to more people about sleep and circadian rhythms

A deep sense of gloom descended on Birmingham‘s York Road this evening as people came out in number to mourn the absence of cars.

We’re excited to share some leadership updates at the CHBH! After three years, Dr @katjakornysheva.bsky.social stepped down this month, we're grateful to Katja for her leadership. Prof @bagshaap.bsky.social will continue as Co-Director and we welcome Prof Stephane De Brito as Co-Director into 25/26.

Holy Moly this looks like a cool opportunity.

Nice

Hivemind, what are your favorite platforms for scientific collaborations/networks in their early stages? Listserv (Google Groups?) is easy but limited functionality + would prefer to move away from Google Dedicated channels (Slack, discord) often fall out of use Hoping to avoid platform lock-in

Bots and sockpuppets are starting to show up here. Advice for dealing with them?

This is an excellent opportunity for people interested in working at the leading edge of neuromodulation.

For precisely no reason, today I'm thinking about this list of assumptions programmers - and perhaps other organisations - might have about names... ...all of which are incorrect. www.kalzumeus.com/2010/06/17/f...

Tried to use a large language model to help me find research groups at my uni studying a particular topic. Model helpfully points me to some researchers who published a paper on said topic... ...from Australia and Germany 🤦‍♀ WHY are we incorporating these tools into our workflows? They don't work!

Benefits of Ireland's first OPM system: ✅Enables awesome cognitive neuroscience ✅Enables awseome clinical neuroscience ✅Makes @redmondoconnell.bsky.social look rather fetching

Neuroscientists: which films do a pretty decent job in being scientifically accurate when it comes to the brain (including sci fi grounded in neuroscience)? I’m making a watchlist!

Is there a better way to convey: 'We exist for the community, not for shareholder profit'? Imaging Neuroscience walking the walk.

Cannot get over the first sentence of this abstract. 'Think you understand biology? No.' www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Want to do RIFT but you're not RICH? These folks have got you covered.

Periodic reminder that, if you had gotten <thing>, it would also have been 'well deserved'. You didn't not get it because you don't deserve it. That's not how any of this works.

Words cannot describe how good a decision the University of Osnabrück have just made.

Current fatigue shapes future motivation. Talking at the poster session about how momentarily fluctuations in fatigue influence willingness to exert effort for reward in the future. Enjoying a great conference - Cognitive Computational Neuroscience - Amsterdam

An abbreviation (ABB) in a journal article (JA) or Grant Application (GA) is rarely worth the words it saves. Every ABB requires cognitive resources (CR) and at my age by the time I'm halfway through a JA or GA I no longer have the CR to remember what your ABB stood for.

Workplace green flag: Senior colleague sends you a message they didn't have to send, offering support they didn't have to offer, based on a need they thought you might have that you didn't explicitly tell them about. Find workplaces like that and stay in them 👍 Happy Friday everyone!

📢 Job announcement: Two (!) 3-year postdoc jobs in our lab at UCL 📢 🧠💫🔊 We are looking for postdocs interested in the abstract mechanisms underlying social cognition. Modelling, fMRI and non-invasive ultrasound, a new deep-brain stimulation method. Please RT www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...
