I am beyond excited to announce that ggplot2 4.0.0 has just landed on CRAN. It's not every day we have a new major #ggplot2 release but it is a fitting 18 year birthday present for the package. Get an overview of the release in this blog post and be on the lookout for more in-depth posts #rstats

Excited to share my new lab website! The Learning & Behavior Change Lab will launch at Rice in July 2026. I’ll be recruiting over the next year! @ricesocsci.bsky.social www.sinclairlab-rice.com

Thanks @chelseakisil.bsky.social, totally agree! Mindfulness is such a key piece of the puzzle. Excited to see how future research from our group and the field at large might help bridge the gap between the attention economy and meaningful ways to refocus and reengage students.

Thanks for the kind note about our paper @jeffgreene.bsky.social ! We have some emerging work that will be out soon addressing some of the points you raised. Happy to chat more if you’re interested.

The Open Science Room has been an exciting space at the OHBM Meeting for many years, but its future is threatened. Please sign this petition to signal your support for preserving a dedicated space for the OSR at future meetings. ohbm.github.io/osr2025/peti...

It was my pleasure @silicolabs.bsky.social!! 🫡 So fun!

I’m pleased to share our new review article, “Attending to Remember: Recent Advances in Methods and Theory”, written with Haopei Yang (HY), Alice Xue, and Anthony Wagner, now out in Current Directions in Psychological Science. 🚀🧠 A brief thread 🧵 doi.org/10.1177/09637214251339452

Thanks for resharing!!

Introducing a new tool from @tsbolt.bsky.social, find-viz (FMRI Interactive Navigation and Discovery Viewer)! It’s a browser-based visualization tool built with one purpose in mind: get researchers to spend more time looking at their fMRI data 🧠 @ohbmofficial.bsky.social @ohbmtrainees.bsky.social

I've already had two federal grants terminated and face a 33% pay cut due to future terminations. It's painful, but not as painful as the conversations I'm having every day with brilliant trainees in graduate school and postdoctoral positions who see little future for themselves in US science.

Are you tempted to orthogonalize the regressors in your fMRI model? @jeanette-mumford.bsky.social tells you why this is almost never a good idea, and is likely to wreck the interpretation of your model. mumfordbrainstats.tumblr.com/post/1337933...

Check it out! The future of Neurosynth. We launched Neurosynth Compose: A free and open platform for neuroimaging meta-analysis. NS-Compose makes it easy to perform custom neuroimaging meta-analyses without leaving the browser. It's live, check it out! compose.neurosynth.org

I want to draw attention to a special issue that Lila Davachi and I put together to memorialize our friend and colleague Sarah DuBrow. It’s full of papers inspired by her work and her being from a group of collaborators, friends, and fans! Thanks @bradpostle.bsky.social for helping make this happen.

is there something going on with homebrew? all os builds in my R package’s CI are passing except for macos… Error: Failed to get R release: Failed to get R 4.4.2: Failed to install qpdf: Error: The process '/opt/homebrew/bin/brew' failed with exit code 1

Sure, this sentiment isn’t new—but wow, doesn’t being here feel genuinely refreshing? It actually feels like a real community, not a feed forcing content down your throat. 💨

OpenNeuro is now on Bluesky!

starter packs are a fantastic feature, especially for those just beginning their migration to these bluer skies ✨

Now that I've fled Leon's site for bluer skies, I'm sure I'll be called an #Ex-X, but personally, I'll always consider myself a #TwitterQuitter.

It is like we are rebooting the beloved sitcom Twitter which ended in 2014.

I have deleted all of my tweets from X using tweetdelete.net. Well worth the $3.99 fee for one month to remove all 9,609 of them, and super easy to use.

Can you believe this whole site runs on a mac mini m4
