Simons Foundation Launches Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience Simons Foundation Launches Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience on Simons Foundation

We are excited to announce our new Simons Collaboration on Ecological Neuroscience (SCENE)! This program will unite experts in experimental and computational #neuroscience approaches to investigate how the brain represents sensorimotor interactions. www.simonsfoundation.org/2025/04/24/s... #science

EEG tip: Alpha waves (8-13 Hz) show up when you're relaxed. Delta waves show up when you're sleeping. And that flat line? That's when your patient unplugged the machine to charge their phone. #EEGProblems

Sadly this is far from confined to Max Planck.

Egomaniacal bullies are sadly rife in academia. There are many academics where their abusive behaviour is an open secret in the community, with v little backlash. Some junior scientists are lucky enough to be warned, but many are not.

Apparently I'm being cited by multiverse research now. Curious.

U.S. BRAIN Initiative set to lose $81 million this year A government spending bill, approved today by the House of Representatives, allocates 20 percent less funding for the program than last year.

"This is a massive loss for neuroscience,” says Cory Miller.
