For the first time ever, I had to make a payment in crypto.
I can now confidently say that crypto payments combine the speed of a dial up modem and the ease of updating the drivers on a 1998 HP Laserjet printer.

Without monkeys, neuroscience has no future
Research in primate brains has been essential for the development of BCIs, ANNs. New funding and policy changes put future such advances at risk.

Unlike prior emphasis on gray matter thinning (e.g. due to pruning of unwanted synapses), our study shows cortical volume & thickness poorly predict cognitive maturation. White matter maturation was the key driver (7/10)

It has been well known that improvement of cognitive performance in adolescence coincides with a number of structural changes in the brain, including volume and surface of the prefrontal cortex and maturation of white matter tracts (3/10)
