moving from the midwestern US to London means anything within a 2-3 hour train ride is *super close* as far as i’m concerned. also, i really enjoy giving talks. what i’m saying is if your uni is within 3 hours of London i would love to come give a talk and chat about research 😊

thank you @uobphenomenal.bsky.social for an excellent workshop today! such a diverse and thought-provoking collection of talks, and lovely conversations with fellow attendees. i’m looking forward to the next event!

I’m elated to share our latest publication - out now in @natmentalhealth.nature.com! www.nature.com/articles/s44... - tour de force by @leahbanellis.bsky.social @brainandstomach.bsky.social and the rest of the VMP team!

the Women in Network Science Seminar Series team will be meeting in the next couple of weeks to begin planning our schedule of speakers for this fall, so it’s not too late to nominate yourself or someone whose work you think is cool! we’d especially love to support phd students and postdocs :)

two of my undergraduate degree programs are now gone. fascists want to eliminate the humanities and social sciences because they know those programs provide the skills to recognize and work against fascism. my degrees are more valuable to me now than ever. the youth deserve better.

Thrilled to finally share a huge piece of my PhD project! Our paper “The Topological Architecture of Brain Identity” is now out on bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵 1/n

i couldn’t be more thrilled to be joining Sofia’s group as a postdoc and to be working with a brilliant team of people who appreciate the power of our social connections! 💖

The tech bro fascination with eugenics is so on brand. The idea that you could make accurate, actionable predictions from individual genotypes (with all their complex, non-linear interactions) from averaged, linearly modeled population-level genomic statistics is just another big data fantasy

The borderlands between fields is where the good stuff happens.

this is a great opportunity! i definitely recommend working with Rick :)

Haven’t seen one of these yet. Let me know who I missed!https://go.bsky.app/PR8rVkF
