Are you a neuroscientist that also makes art? I wanna get to know you and spotlight your art at this session at #SfN26! Show me your art, whether it’s related to your science or not! 🧠🧪
News for SfN peeps: I'll have a small show in a gallery very close to the meeting from 11-18 November #sciart
You know what's also interactive? Reading the paper. Talk to your colleagues about the paper you just read. Tell them why you loved it. Tell them why you hated it. And even better: invite the authors to talk about their paper 🧪
Ran Blekhman@blekhman.bsky.social · last mo.This is the future of scientific papers. Instead of a PDF, the paper is an AI agent that you can talk to, ask questions, run analyses. No more digging through supplements - just ask the paper directly: "what p-value cutoff was used in Fig 3B? Re-run at 0.01." www.nature.com/articles/s41...
I finally finished a project I started in June that I was certain I would finish in four weeks (I am better at science project management I swear)
