Pedro and I have some new data on temporal interference (TI) stimulation in macaques, a exciting method for stimulating deep (and other) brain structures focally and non-invasively!
Here's a thread about what we found:
Exasperated with @AirCanada. First flight was delayed and they wouldn’t hold the connection for five minutes (for ten of us!), then rebooked me with a 27 hour layover when there was another flight—with room—leaving two hours later.
If you don't believe the authors about "equal contribution", why would you believe anything else in the paper either?
Madineh is good people AND does some really cool stuff!

This is your annual reminder that participants in an experiment are never doing The Task™ (whatever it may be) or even "no task at all".
If you're lucky, they're doing something that shifts their reward function towards the one provided by your task. Maybe. You gotta check!

Eagerly looking forward to participating in this next Tuesday.
Please join us even—especially!—if you're skeptical about the role oscillations, ephaptic effects, and the like!

This 🧵 epitomizes the frustrating part of tES.
Some (many! most?) individual studies are garbage but...not all of them. The mech isn't preposterous: we--and many others--have data showing it does /something/.
And yet, it's all sneering about implanting USB-C ports instead.

The Nelson Lab is hiring a postbac / technician! cu.taleo.net/careersection/2… Please share with anyone who might be interested in neurodevelopment, behavioral plasticity, or sensory biology! Colorado is a wonderful place to do science and a beautiful place to call home 🤩
If you're at #Cosyne2024, please tell me about the cool stuff you see because I am not.
(Seriously would appreciate this, but also entertained that half my feed is currently "If you're at...")

I am very saddened to learn of the passing of Peter Schiller. Peter was a great scientist. He took me under his wing when I started at MIT. I'll never forget him. Miss you, Peter.

I realize AI is a touchy subject in some areas, but can we all agree that Victorian Seinfeld is the right use of this technology?
BREAKING: Legault to announce 50% tax on most ice cream. "We must counter the historic decline in French Vanilla, especially in Montreal."
The bill requires that within 5 years, 80% of orders must be "crème glacée pure laine", with no outside flavors or toppings.
"Sure, we have world-class restaurants and cuisines from around the globe. But why? Who needs all that? Just be happy with a poutine from St-Hubert", said Simon Jolin-Barrette.

I can get stuff done with it, but there a tutorial that will make me *like* Pandas?
I always feel like it's in the way, I'm holding it wrong, I don't get the tao of it, etc.
