#Neuro4Pros 4ever 🧠🤓 Grateful for a week of learning from & being in community with fellow early career profs & amazing facilitators @gunnarblohm.bsky.social @kordinglab.bsky.social @meganakpeters.bsky.social @yaelniv.bsky.social @patrickmineault.bsky.social Hannah Bayer 📸: @mohebial.bsky.social
What a fun time! Thanks so much @gunnarblohm.bsky.social and @kordinglab.bsky.social for the initiative!
The Viking (Gunnar Blohm)@gunnarblohm.bsky.social · last yr.Having fun facilitating this amazing group of young Profs at the #Neuro4Pros workshop with @kordinglab.bsky.social and @meganakpeters.bsky.social, @yaelniv.bsky.social, and Hannah Bayer. Watch out world: this is the next generation of leaders! compneurosci.com/Neuro4Pros/i...

We are excited to announce our new Simons Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience (SCENE)! This program will unite experts in experimental and computational #neuroscience approaches to investigate how the brain represents sensorimotor interactions. www.simonsfoundation.org/2025/04/24/s... #science

EEG tip: Alpha waves (8-13 Hz) show up when you're relaxed. Delta waves show up when you're sleeping. And that flat line? That's when your patient unplugged the machine to charge their phone. #EEGProblems
I have run into a rock climbing video about self-organization, affordable, attractors and constraints. Wow! youtu.be/FvjEmQ6OcBg?...

So it honestly took longer to frame than to actually make, but I finally finished stitching Federico Ardila's axioms for my office! #mathsky
Sadly this is far from confined to Max Planck. Egomaniacal bullies are sadly rife in academia. There are many academics where their abusive behaviour is an open secret in the community, with v little backlash. Some junior scientists are lucky enough to be warned, but many are not.

Apparently I'm being cited by multiverse research now. Curious.
"This is a massive loss for neuroscience,” says Cory Miller. By @avaskham.bsky.social www.thetransmitter.org/funding/u-s-...
U.S. BRAIN Initiative set to lose $81 million this year
A government spending bill, approved today by the House of Representatives, allocates 20 percent less funding for the program than last year.
