During these tough times I remind you of Rocky Balboa's wisdom: "It ain't about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward."

Gave my first editorial 'desk reject' today on the basis of post-hoc selection of data & the bias this creates in a dataset. Since Galton (1886), many scientists have devised many ingenious ways of biasing their samples. 👀👇 youtu.be/VN19B-3P6Cc?...

Recognizing excellence in neuroscience strengthens the entire field. The 2025 SfN Awards and Prizes celebrate the researchers, educators, and mentors who drive neuroscience forward. Nominate a colleague, friend, or peer by Thursday, May 8. 🔗 bit.ly/4iXFGLz #Neurosky

Went to support the #StandUpForScience in #WashingtonDC. Science is our future, we need to protect it. Very positive and motivated rally, European researchers are standing with you!

“You can’t discover what you don’t study.” @jennifergarrison.bsky.social highlights the need for more focus on women’s health at the Merkin Symposium at Caltech. Hard for anti-diversity folks to argue against addressing health issues that impact half the population…

Hier, c'était les #NeuroStories par NeuroMarseille! Entre raison et sentiments, mon cerveau balance : 5 stand-ups qui ont expliqué leur recherches. J'ai eu le grand plaisir de présenter une partie sur le toucher avec Sophia Faresse "Toucher Discriminatif" et moi "Toucher affectif" lnkd.in/dbDnw8fK

Feeling philosophical this morning: one secret to happiness and success is knowing what to care about—and what to ignore. Simple, but not easy to master!

This is pretty cool!

What a fantastic EuroHaptics 2024 meeting! Big thanks to the organizers and for the invitation to present. We had a great time, including the all the talks, posters, demos and art exhibits, as well as many discussion at our Affective Haptics Workshop

New paper alert! We investigated tactile sensitivity of the finger, arm, and cheek skin over the lifespan, finding decline only on the finger doi.org/10.3389/fnag...

Really looking forward to going to #EuroHaptics in a few days with the team! Come to our workshop on Sunday too... we have had a last-minute change of speaker, but we are very happy to announce that Prof. Johan Wessberg will be presenting sites.google.com/view/affecti...

Merle Fairhurst and I are very happy to be organizing a workshop at #EuroHaptics in the afternoon of 30 June on #affective #haptics. Hope to see you there! Dispelling myths & forwarding the next generation of affective haptics sites.google.com/view/affecti...

Nice one, didn’t know it. Very useful for future reviews….

We went to see mastectomy surgeries yesterday, as part of Sophia's @sophiafaresse.bsky.social PhD working on nerve stimulation and breast sensation #BionicBreast #CNRS #UChicago MITI collaboration. Such amazing work fighting #BreastCancer

Just learned about bioicons.com Free, open source icons for illustration. not so many brains on there yet, maybe add some if you have made any?! #neuroskyence

in which i stare down the barrel of scientific history at 150 years of bad ideas & ask*: are we making any progress at all? (trigger warning: contains NO discussion of *that* replicability paper.) * but don't answer. #podcast #neuroskyence #stats Enjoy! theerrorbar.com?e=38
