Out now in @CellCellPress! doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2023.… Historically marginalized student representation drastically drops from undergrad to grad school. Are underrepresented students unqualified? Or are grad school admissions unnecessarily confusing, costly, & gatekeeping? 1/🧡

I was fortunate to co-author one of the articles in this issue, and the entire issue looks really interesting!
Really happy to announce that the editorial we wrote with @TTchumatchenko and Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleski is out! The special issue on computational neuroscience they edited is full of incredibly interesting contributions (all open access!). Link here: tinyurl.com/y29epzwv

Only 0.5% of neuroscience research over the past few decades has focused on women's brain health. Want this to change? We do too! Come join our dynamic and supportive team where we have TWO open postdoctoral positions in AI and computational neuroimaging for Women's Brain Health!

Today: wishing we'd think more about the history and race/class purpose of the SAT when we talk about the SAT. But expecting social scientists to disabuse themselves of the idea of quantifying "innate intelligence" is a fool's errand...

The SAT discourse often ignores results from a decades-long natural experiment by a selective college who did away with the test long ago. The school still found a way to find qualified students AND that lower SAT students did as well as higher SAT folks. tinyurl.com/29d7637y
