{truffle} is an R package for teaching users to process data. Semi-realistic psychological datasets with predetermined effects (via `truffles_` functions) are then hidden in common data processing headaches (via `dirt_` functions) for students to clean and analyze. mmmdata.io/posts/2025/0...

I am happy to announce that I am nearly caught up on all the work I had from Spring semester and boy am I ready for summer vacation what's that you say

An explosion in open-neuroscience datasets has created a new generation of researchers with expertise in data science. But new restrictions put our research programs in jeopardy, writes Elvisha Dhamala @elvisha.bsky.social. #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/open-neurosc...

I'll admit, I was skeptical when they said Gemini was just like a bunch of PhDs. But I gotta admit they nailed it.

Wow: tenure letter writers’ publication records (h-index) are better predictors of tenure decisions than candidates’ own publication record.

Other paper-writing realities include: “The most important element of a paper is the title—think of the ratio of the number of titles you read to the number of papers you read.” “The abstract is, for most readers, the only part of the paper that will be read.” pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Always be wary of: 1) test > train performance 2) great accuracy predicting cognition from brain data (okay, #2 is less strict, but we do tend to see modest performance predicting cognitive scores in humans)

Nice tips and conversation in here for promotion letter writing

"Science is not just something I do; it’s a core facet of who I am. If science is taken from me, an important piece of me will be gone."- @feliciatuchman.bsky.social @sciforgood.bsky.social Bravo, friend! So well done. We can't just switch off what inspires us, especially when it is under attack.

Brenda Milner just turned 107. Happy birthday! On my very first day as a PI at the MNI, she was right in front of me in the cafeteria line. She was already nearly 100, and still coming to work. What a legend.
