I wrote a little thing on how the reporting of science during the pandemic has shown up the absurdity of peer review (again) drmdhumphries.medium.com/the-absurdity-…

What are people’s favorite #openaccess #creativecommons rat brain atlas? Seems insane to pay Elsevier $400 USD/$600NZD to use george paxinos and Watson’s reference material (that we already paid for). #academicchatter #OpenScience

imagine: you train a classifier to predict something from a bunch of recording electrodes. you obtain weights, 1 value for each electrode. if only 1 weight is unequal 0, does it mean the informative signal is only present on that single electrode? 🧵⬇️

It's time to stop making t-SNE & UMAP plots. In a new preprint w/ Tara Chari we show that while they display some correlation with the underlying high-dimension data, they don't preserve local or global structure & are misleading. They're also arbitrary.🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

For every fellowship I got I had example successful apps to see because my network is large. Not everyone has that privilege. I share my success apps with anyone, even if I don't know you. DM me if you need an example app for a K99, FWIS L'Oreal, pre and postdoc Ford, BWF PDEP

So stoked that my first postdoc paper is now out! A huge thanks to the co-authors and members of the Buzsaki lab for all their suggestions and help! Here’s a thread with small nuggets of inside information! cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

Not going to make a string of (X/20) clickbait posts. We simply did a comparison of theta, acceleration, and velocity. Velocity still carries the dominant effect on theta frequency. Check it out here: jneurosci.org/content/early/…

Very excited to share my postdoc work nature on elucidating the role of neurotensin in guiding valence assignment in the amygdala, under the guidance of Kay M Tye PhD at Salk Institute HHMI, and in collaboration with Praneeth Namburi and Jake Olson nature.com/articles/s4158…

UC Faculty Assoc. University of California I want to speak to faculty who feel hurt, blindsided, and angry about the #FairUCNow strike. Faculty are most immediately hurt by these strikes, and it can feel unfair especially for those who have spent their career trying to make grad ed better.

What’s everyones favorite drill for surgery? We’re ideally looking for an angled, electric hand-piece. The one we have is no longer made 😔 #ephystwitter #scitwitter
