Autism is associated with inflexibility of brain dynamics. Watanabe and Yamasue show that TMS over the right superior parietal lobule while the brain is ‘stuck’ in a certain state reduces this rigidity and relieves various autistic traits. @takamitsuw.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Us : “We need 50 patients to find the effect.” NIH: “Cool, here’s the award.” NIH Post Trump: “Actually we’re taking back some of your money.” Us: “Ok, that means we can only get 46 patients.” NIH: “That’s bad. If you can’t prove that 46 is enough to find the effect, you lose.”

A Reagan-appointed judge ruled that the Administration’s attempt to cancel hundreds of NIH grants are “void and illegal.” We must continue to stand up to the attacks on health research and lifesaving clinical trials.

Presidential budget proposes a 70% reduction in NSF funding for 2026 compared to2024. Instead of funding 23% of proposals (2024) they will fund 7% (2026). A perfect recipe for the destruction of American science.
