RFK JR: I did not fact check
RUIZ: It included citations to sources that don't exist. How does that happen?
RFK JR: All of the foundational assertions are accurate
RUIZ: They did not exist. How can they be accurate?

In "The Invisible Hand," @mattlongo.bsky.social provides a deftly written account of the neural and cognitive mechanisms that have made a seemingly ordinary physical appendageโthe human handโan extraordinary tool in the evolution of humanity: mitpress.mit.edu/978026255187...

We much FIGHT BACK against efforts to demolish US universities and US science, two things that actually make America great.

The line drawing style mouse head is in a raspberry red and includes the shape of its brain and dots representing the barrel cortex. Like van der Loos it is at 3/4 and placed so that its eyes are at his eye-line. Its whiskers lead to a array of spots on its snout in a gradient of blue to red with a green strip, to match the barrel cortex diagram above. The barrel cortex above van der Loosโ head looks like five rows of obloid shapes in a gradient of red to blue with a final offset top column in green.
Happy birthday to #neuroscientist Hendrik Van der Loos (1929-1993) shown in my print with his discovery (along with medical student Thomas Woolsey), of the barrel cortex, along with the mouse head & whiskers linked directly to it. #histsci ๐งช๐ก #SciArtSeptember
