Have you thought about how beautiful engineering is when humans decided to build bridges to connect communities rather than walls separating them?

"We're going to create superintelligence" How about making outlook search work first. How about that

Adults up to 80 years old maintain effective movement planning when facing complex body dynamics Aging can significantly impact motor performance, especially in highly complex tasks such as multi-joint movements where the nervous system needs to adequately coordinate mechanical interactions betwe...

First first author paper of Anouck Matthijs on the fact that aging does not affect the ability to compensate for interaction torques during movement planning. Both the timing and scaling of anticipatory EMG activity are preserved with age.

New paper led by @drlynam.bsky.social on the need for more training in and engagement with open science practices in clinical psych programs. It has been difficult to make progress due to a variety of barriers, including students working in labs uninterested or hostile to these approaches.

Adopt A Station - Rescue Public Media Help preserve independent journalism and community programming across America by adopting a public media station. Congress has voted to rescind public media's funding.

As always, support your local station. They need it more than you know. And, if you can swing it, adopt a station in another state: adoptastation.org

Not just an amazing dataset, excellent 3D pose, shape, and eye tracking in the real world! Bravo @trackingskills.bsky.social et al!
