Ocean currents show global intensification of weak tropical cyclones

“Our analysis further indicates that globally TCs have strengthened across the entirety of the intensity distribution.”

Charles Watson sighting at the Symposium for Western Australia Neuroscience yesterday!

When asked for career advice for ECRs, Charles said "I behaved completely randomly" in regards to his career choices and really stumbled onto working in the brain atlas.

Excellent representation of #migraine and really makes visible it's dynamic nature. It's not an all or nothing experience and even when I seem "fine" I'm battling going into one or leaving one.

Funding calls with short deadlines (to apply and spend) suck for so many reasons: they distract from lab time, encourage absurd working patterns, and favour larger, more established groups who have a bunch of applications ready/have postdocs they can just cost on. I genuinely just want to do #science I don’t want to spend my life filling out word documents 🥹🫠. #AcademicMastodon #ScienceMastodon

Banksy’s powerful new works in Ukraine

This is Mastodon right now.

Here's a lil thread of things I *wish* somebody had told me when I started advising #STEM #gradstudents as a lab head, #PhD program director, and grad school conflict-resolution officer. Or maybe they did and I wasn’t listening? 🧵

By way of more introduction, another paper (open access):
'Time to Retire the Serial Papez Circuit: Implications for Space, Memory, and Attention'
https://sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0149763422003025
We argue the notion of a serial Papez circuit makes no anatomical or functional sense...
Anterior thalamic nuclei and hippocampus conjointly support episodic memory
Focus should shift to how these two structures jointly interact with neocortex

@aidanhorner I'm neuroscience ECR using Morris Water Maze to probe spatial memory in rodents.

Since I mentioned Citizen Science, I would like to share a teaser of what we do on Flywire - proofreading AI-mapped models of neurons of Drosophila.

This is one of the more massive and beautiful cell types found in the fly brain, the CT1. Originating in the central brain and fanning out into the optic lobe, there are only two to be found in the fly brain - one for each hemisphere. It interfaces primarily with the medulla and lobula neuropils.

This, from PNAS reviewing instructions, is actually pretty good:

"The purpose of peer review is not to demonstrate proficiency in identifying flaws."

Here is a moment of calm and #relaxocean with the bait ball from #MontereyBayAquarium. I still get goosebumps when I’m in the Open Sea exhibit. It’s so mesmerizing and awe inspiring. #ocean #anchovies #tuna

@MicrobioJC @PleaseCaption alt text is something I haven't figured out on mastadon yet! Do you have a link to a guide?

@virati @neuro thanks @virati ! You're an absolute legend for making the migration so easy.

Hey #neurodon - brief reminder that tagging @neuroscience and/or @neuro broadens your #neuroscience reach across #mastodon and #fediverse

Hey #neuroscience #neurotech #neurodon @neuroscience

I'm very excited about a truly distributed community for #neuroscience.

Let's make it easier for new folks (and #twitterexodus #twittermigration) to plug into the #neurodon community!

Please add your Mastodon information to this importable community list: https://forms.gle/sWZyxMGsNefy3kzr5

And please boost so we can make this a robust community!

Hello #neurosciencemigration! 👋

I've gotten quite a few followers recently so I thought I'd do an #introduction photo.

I'm from Tucson, AZ in the US but have been living in Australia (Perth, WA and Canberra, ACT) for over 14 years.

I'm an electrophysiologist and behavioural neuroscientist who specialises in auditory #neuroscience, #hearingloss and #tinnitus.

Happy to chat all things brain, STEM and surviving a #phd in #australia

There's an (excellent) medical server https://med-mastodon.com/about
But haven't found a server for healthtech, digitalhealth, dtx, health innovation, mhealth, RPM, ... yet! Maybe I'm not looking in the right places?
A boost would be nice to speed up the search 👋 🚀 💪
