Getting at it at last with likely 2 personal abstracts. Great to have extra space for the text, but I wonder who decided that *just 5 references* were sufficient ?! 😬 "Bonus point", hahem, for the obligatory 'state' field in the author affiliation. We are not all from the US of A, you know.... 🙄
‼️Final week to submit for #OHBM2026! ⚠️ Submit early via our new platform, Oxford Abstracts, to avoid last-minute stress! ⏰ Deadline: Dec 15, 2025, at 11:59 pm EST, USA #BrainMapping #Neuroimaging
En route to Marseille for #ESMRMB25, where the @giga-crc-hi.bsky.social team will be presenting some of our work ! Anyone already arriving on Tuesday up for dinner later on?
EurIPS is coming! 📣 Mark your calendar for Dec. 2-7, 2025 in Copenhagen 📅 EurIPS is a community-organized conference where you can present accepted NeurIPS 2025 papers, endorsed by @neuripsconf.bsky.social and @nordicair.bsky.social and is co-developed by @ellis.eu eurips.cc
⏳ 1 week left to submit your late abstract for #ESMRMB2025! 🗓 Deadline: 22 Aug 2025, 17:00 CEST 📍 Marseille is calling — will you bring a 📑 registered report or a 💡 new project? 🔗 Submit: esmrmb2025.org/late-abstrac... #MRI #MRresearch #AbstractSubmission
"... the strain on academic publishing could be substantially alleviated if funding agencies stipulated that the work they support must be published in non-profit journals." Amen. Poke @apertureohbm.bsky.social !
Hanson believes the problem is not open access & APCs per se, but for-profit publishers that seek to publish as many papers as possible... the strain on academic publishing could be substantially alleviated if funding agencies stipulated... work they support must be published in non-profit journals.
