A rotary evaporator device that boils away a liquid through pressure changes leaving the solute in the flask which is in the water.

This week in my organic chemistry class we were extracting caffeine from tea. After filtering and doing multiple rounds using a separatory funnel, I got to use this new device, the rotatory evaporator.

I’m definitely enjoying these labs quite a bit.

Distillation system that has a flask of liquid on the right sitting in a heat element. The vapors from the boiling liquid move up through the tubing and down the water cooled condenser until it turns back into a liquid and drips out into the graduated cylinder on the left.

If you pronounce Likert correctly (lick-urt) people will often think you don't know what you are talking about because the incorrect pronunciation (lie-kurt) is so common. Are there other good examples of this kind of thing?

So happy to share our paper on the role of the hippocampus as a mismatch detector:
doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

We show that the hippocampus detects mismatches between ongoing experiences and episodic memories but not generalised schematic knowledge.

🧵How to write and manage your first research budgets

The point of funding is to convert it into quality research. A well-spent research budget should fund the idea it was raised on, plus revision experiments, plus preliminary data for the next grant. So you need to spend, while avoiding waste.

I earned my first Tableau certification this week! I've had several clients this year where I used Tableau, so I thought I'd go through their foundations certification to fill in some knowledge gaps.

Seen a bad or misleading graph or figure in the media recently? I'd love to see it/share with my research methods class as they develop as consumers of research! Manipulative axes, really small sample sizes, misconstrued percent vs. percentile...show me what you've got! Thanks! #academicchatter

Python: The Documentary | An origin story
This is the story of the world's most beloved programming language: Python. What began as a side project in Amsterdam during the 1990s became the software powering artificial intelligence, data science and some of the world’s biggest companies. But Python's future wasn't certain; at one point it almost disappeared. This 90-minute documentary features Guido van Rossum, Travis Oliphant, Barry Warsaw, and many more, and they tell the story of Python’s rise, its community-driven evolution, the conflicts that almost tore it apart, and the language’s impact on... well… everything. Thanks to our sponsors for making this documentary possible: Anaconda: https://www.anaconda.com/ @AnacondaInc.
