Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

At @ox.ac.uk it's time for the staff survey. Here's my answer to: "What is the main thing the University could do to help you to progress your career?"
Please repost and respond similarly to the survey if you agree. It's the only way to get our points across!

A key paper, and monumental effort from the lab, demonstrating the potential for truly naturalistic imaging neuroscience. What a tour de force! Go team! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

Great to see our excellent colleague @peterkok.bsky.social getting further recognition of his great work!

Congratulations Peter! 🥳👏🏻

Great opportunity to learn directly from those developing the methods! #SPM

It is with profound sadness that we share the devastating news that Eleanor Maguire passed away on January 4th. She was a phenomenally brilliant neuroscientist, with immense passion for her work and many remarkable accomplishments. We will miss her terribly.
