you shouldn‘t try to live your life in one day but you can have your year on one page neatnik.net/calendar/?ye...

A lot of interesting emails coming in right now about literally keeping the lights on, unlocking doors, etc etc.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

iPadOS showing me the current time and also reminding me of a very different time, long long ago …

As 2025 comes to a close, my university (Dalhousie U in Halifax, Canada) is recruiting faculty, including outstanding early career researchers, and Canada Research Chairs. Applications are due January 19 2026 (was just notified today!). Please repost.

🥳 Happy holidays everyone, the list will be back in January 🎉

This week's sensorimotor superlab reading list is out https://superlab.ca/posts/2025-12-19-list316.html @andpru.bsky.social @diedrichsenjorn.bsky.social @gribblelab.org #neuroskyence #psychscisky #Sensorimotor

📣 Faculty line in cognitive psychology in my department at Western Washington University. We just, finally, received permission to search. Details will be posted in early January. But hey, I just want to get this out so people will be watching. Nice place and university. I’ve liked it.

Great to see this paper on sensory expectations in motor control from @jonathanamichaels.bsky.social and @andpru.bsky.social out in Nature today! www.nature.com/articles/s41... #neuroscience 🧪

This is something that can be difficult for many grad students to absorb, namely the idea of spending years working hard on experiments, on data, on papers, on ideas—and ”still needing help”. Novel science is hard. That’s why we do it together. #neuroskyence #psychscisky

"Crystal Meth Clippy" is 🔥

Are you interested in a MSc/PhD in human sensorimotor neuroscience? Learn to design experiments, analyze data, read & write papers, present at conferences, & work with a vibrant group of students & faculty in a world-class research environment. #neuroskyence #psychscisky gribblelab.org/join.html

If you are an MRI researcher interested in moving to 🇨🇦 for $500k a year or $1M a year for 8 years with a possibility of renewal at a reduced rate, take a look at our equipment cfmm.uwo.ca and this program www.canada.ca/en/impact-pl... . MSK, neuroscience, cardiac, cancer applications all encouraged!

it’s that season, students! grading essays, reading manuscript drafts, thesis proposals, i.imgflip.com/af387b.jpg

📣We have 2 open faculty positions for senior researchers in Neuroscience at Queen's University! healthsci.queensu.ca/administrati... 1. a new Director for our Centre for Neuroscience Studies 2. a non-human primate NeuroAI researcher Please share widely and reach out for questions!

federal in-person back to work means CIHR peer review is back in person too right? right?

Scientists at Canadian institutions have long punched well above our weight despite low and stagnant funding. Spending a billion dollars on external recruitment while science here is starving is exactly what Harper got wrong about supporting research excellence in Canada.

On this National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, let us all remember the 14 women who were brutally murdered for simply being women in 1989 at Polytechnique Montréal. Say there names & #NeverForget Our society still has a long way to go to #EndViolenceAgainstWomen 🤍

Cutting-edge research shows language is not the same as intelligence. The entire AI bubble is built on ignoring it. Read more from @benjaminriley.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine. If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again. #sciencematters

Grateful to The Verge for publishing my essay on why large-language models are not going to achieve general intelligence nor push the scientific frontier. www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

No sensorimotor superlab reading list this week, we are at our superlab retreat. The list will be back next week. andpru.bsky.social @diedrichsenjorn.bsky.social @gribblelab.org #neuroskyence #psychscisky #Sensorimotor

0/7 Excited to 📢 that our (@mkashefi.bsky.social @diedrichsenjorn.bsky.social @andpru.bsky.social) new preprint on sequence preparation and its effect on reaction time is now up: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Please get in touch if there is anything you'd like to discuss! Brief summary 🧵👇

Garrett Stanley and I are leading the recruitment of a senior faculty position in BME at Georgia Tech and Emory, focused on Neural Engineering. Come talk to us, we're looking for a leader in research and training, in areas with neurotranslation potential. More details here: lnkd.in/eusCqCSR

Profits from scientific publishing are eye-watering, costing us billions. In ‘The Drain of Scientific Publishing’ (arxiv.org/abs/2511.04820), (building on ‘The Strain of Scientific Publishing’ doi.org/10.1162/qss_a_00327) we show how it is harmful – and unnecessary.

✨ Exciting News! ✨ I am thrilled to share that I will be joining the University of Guelph's Department of Psychology in Neuroscience and Applied Cognitive Science as an Assistant Professor, starting July 1, 2026. I will be returning to Canada on Canada Day!

A very interesting discussion with input from teachers and professors of all stripes across multiple levels (school, higher-ed) and disciplines (engineering, history, ...) and <what a concept> some actual research and actual data. Worth a listen for all of us. #academicsky #neuroskyence #psychscisky
