Deadline in 3 days (Thursday 5th) to apply for a PhD with me and @ktsetsos.bsky.social at Trinity College Dublin in Cognitive Computational Neuroscience / neuro-AI. Please share!
Last review task of the year submitted and crossed off the to-do list!
These animals are incredibly special, people who work with them care deeply about their health and well being. There are serious threats for the future of translational biomedical research that benefits humans and animals alike. Please take action and repost. www.nwabr.org/content/our-...
PRIME-DRE supports the valuable work done at the Oregon National Primate Research Center. Please co-sign this letter to remind Oregonian leadership of its importance prime-dre.github.io/onprc
A loud argument is not necessarily a good argument. A repeated argument is not necessarily a good argument. An interrupting argument is not necessarily a good argument. Would you like me to repeat that slowly for the presidents in the back?

I'm in Brussels, done with grant review duties. Will stay until Sunday. Recommendations are welcome!
Here (Netherlands) it still seems to be functional. Search also works.
The PRIME-DRE Global Collaboration Workshop 2024 will take place online today and tomorrow. Meet fellow NHP neuroimaging researchers and make your scientific life both a little easier and a lot more fun!
I am old so I can say this: innovation in neuroscience research can be accelerated if we did not waste so much resources repeating what we already know from NHP and rat research in Cre mouse lines
Thanks for the suggestion. No luck so far. Getting the thing recognized is not really working although sometimes I seem to be able to read the last print to the serial port. Not very consistent.
Any advise on how to proceed? Methods, devices, software; all recommendations are welcome. www.rmimaging.com/spectrashop....

Any color vision experts on Bluesky? We want to color calibrate some monitors in our lab, but the spectroradiometer we have (Spectrscan PR650) doesn't work with the software we planned to use (Spectrashop 6).

We are happy to announce the 2024 PRIME-DRE global collaboration workshop for Dec 3-4. More info prime-re.github.io/GCW2024.html
Dit krijg je blijkbaar als je de 2 soorten volwassen vpro kinderen samen een clipje laat maken. Interessant! #ploegendienst #spinvis #dsmV t.co/QXsCqwZNUA
Of course there are exceptions, and there are surely cases where a first draft is excellent as-is and feedback will barely improve things. However, the chance that your thesis is such an exception is a lot smaller than the chance that you can benefit from feedback.
If mistakes or omissions are detected in a first draft, your supervisors can explain what's wrong and suggest improvements, if they are first spotted in the final work they will affect your grade. In fact, handling feedback well typically improves your grade too.
We see this tendency often. Usually because deadlines approach faster than anticipated, and/or students are reluctant to share incomplete work. This is a shame. First drafts don't need to be perfect, that's why they're first drafts.
In fact, this is precisely why you have supervisors. Use them. And remember, they are also the ones grading your thesis (or one of the people that do) so getting some insight into what they want to see is very valuable.
Feedback on a first draft (even an incomplete one) almost always improves a thesis and gets you a higher grade. Professional scientists also ask their colleagues for feedback on their work before they submit it for detailed peer review scrutiny.
Dear students, a word of advise in thesis-submission times: you may think you don't need your supervisor's feedback on a first draft of your thesis and skipping it will give you more writing time towards your 'final' thesis submission deadline, but you're almost certainly wrong.
Just stumbled upon this at a local record store. I did not know this existed but it's up there with the Wugazi record. Both great mash-ups. #TodayOneLoveTomorrowTheWorld
NeuroVault is celebrating over a decade of researchers openly sharing brain maps!
We're looking back at the amazing growth & what's next. But first...
We need your help! Take our survey to shape the future of NeuroVault & data sharing!

Heading to Newcastle University for my first participation in a UK PhD viva. Curious to see how they do it overseas.
