Obviously a consequence for the scientific community is that all federal review sessions (such as study section meetings) and institute council meetings scheduled before Feb 1 are halted for now
Federal health agencies (NIH CDC FDA etc) are directed to pause external communications including scientific reports, updates to websites and advisories

We are ever more closer to an Iranian-Israeli war which will be an unmitigated disaster, will lead to more innocent people dying and will likely not make any of us any safer.
It can still be stopped. It must still be stopped.

First time I’ve seen Northern lights in person. Never expected to see them from Davis! By naked eye, it was a slight hue in sky. But enough that my son could see it from his bedroom window (yes, I woke him up!) 2-3 sec long exposure on iPhone brought out more detail.
Please spread the word about a great opportunity at UC Davis for a computational and/or cognitive neuroscientist. Based at the Center for Neuroscience with space directly adjacent to @CharanRanganath and Mark Goldman! Need to apply by November 15 to guarantee review.
@UCDavisCNS & @UCDneurosurgery invite applications for a TT faculty position in cognitive and/or computational neuroscience focused on addressing how cortical and subcortical networks generate complex human behavior in both health & disease.

My department @ucdavis is hiring a tenure-track neuroscientist. Emphasis on human but also animal models, for computational folks OR experimentalists who don't need wetlab space (e.g. research in the EMU, OR, scanner, etc.). 👇

Thank you, @arash_tehran, for writing down the collective dream of many of us so eloquently
As we found ourselves in the abyss, I wrote of a different Middle East we can dream of and build

For decades, Narges Mohammadi has been a vocal advocate for women and girls in Iran. This @NobelPrize is a well-deserved recognition of her courage, and the hope that she represents—not only for the women in Iran, but for women fighting repression and violence around the world.
BREAKING NEWS
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the 2023 #NobelPeacePrize to Narges Mohammadi for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran and her fight to promote human rights and freedom for all.

Excited that recently graduated Ph.D. Preetham Ganupuru will be presenting exciting PPC results Nov 15 (Tues) morning @SfNtweets:
489.15 / WW28 - Flexible integration of evidence in rat parietal cortex for perceptual decisions
Teaser: PPC matters but for what?
I’ll add that Preetham is now a postdoc in lab of @A_Izquierdo1 and I’m looking forward to seeing the future of their research!

What are the causal contributions of the frontal orienting field and posterior parietal cortex to decisions under risk? Check our recent preprint to find out! With @xiaoyuezhuu @mollermara Sylvain Dubroqua and Chaofei Bao.
Frontal but not parietal cortex is required for decisions under risk biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #biorxiv_neursci
Excited to share the latest publication on decision making from our lab. Co-first authors Alexa Booras and Tanner Stevenson @TanLStevenson found parallel evaluation of the same stream of evidence along distinct timescales: rdcu.be/cm3pk
