A borderline-illegible mechanical drawing of a circuit board drill pattern. So many lines. So many inscrutable dimensions.

thanks, that clears things up

Anatomical White Matter Tracts Span the Cortical Hierarchy to Support Cognitive Diversity Long-range white matter (WM) tracts support cognition by enabling communication between distant cortical regions, which are organized along a hierarchy defined by the sensorimotor-to-association (S-A)...

Ever wondered how white matter tracts actually map onto the cortical hierarchy and cognition—beyond the usual “projection vs association” labels?
Our new preprint tackles exactly that! 🧠✨ doi.org/10.64898/202...

It's been quite a year for hypothalamic development. With this heroic analysis of developmental cell lineage, coupled with earlier multimode-based gene regulatory network analysis, the prosomere model looks like it has passed into history.

Argh I had forgotten about both her and Sabatini and this randomly showed up in my feed. It must be Spooky Season.

Scientists from NIH, NSF, EPA, CDC and NASA, united in opposition to the horrific cuts to science and dangerous misinformation.

Join me in welcoming the CDC to the dissent letter club!!! As a member of a fellow HHS organization, I stand with you, always.

I LOVE IT!

Everyone. Please stop doing this. Validate your reagents. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trainees. Trust yet verify. Reagent validation is annoying, tedious, time consuming, expensive, yet essential. Authorship on a flawed paper is not what anyone aspires to. Don’t let flawed reagents mess up your science. Be the wheat, not the chaff #Reproducibility
