NOA in hand, we are ready to launch research in the NeuroPRISM lab!🚀 Appreciate @noahghola @ResearchAtNU @NUGlobalNews taking time to profile this @NIMHgov R00-funded project Now hiring a fully-funded postdoc—reach out if interested & spread the word! news.northeastern.edu/resear…

📣 Attn researchers interested in movie fcMRI x reliability! Glad to have been part of this work led by @ShearerHallee & @headspace_lab

Yup, everyone’s heading to🦋 (again) in case you haven’t heard. I know we’re all dissatisfied. Come join us in trying to shift the community one more time ( Pic h/t @andreashorn_ )

Researchers at KI have made a significant breakthrough in single-cell RNA-seq technology by developing fully synthetic RNase inhibitors that can replace protein-based reagents. Published in @NatureComms. By @JCMolBio, @antle718, @mhagemannjensen, @sandberglab, @BReinius et al.

Thanks for such a wonderful symposium :) Lots of fun with my BU teammates! #ABCT2024

Understanding the difference between Standard Deviation (SD) and Standard Error (SE) is crucial for accurate data interpretation. SD measures the variability within your data, indicating how spread out the individual data points are from the mean. In contrast, SE measures the uncertainty around the sample mean as an estimate of the population mean. It reflects the precision of the mean, with SE decreasing as the sample size increases, making your estimate more reliable. The relationship between SD and SE is given by the formula: SE = SD / √(sample size). While SD remains relatively constant with larger samples, SE diminishes, highlighting the reduced uncertainty in the mean estimate. A common mistake in research is using the “±” notation without specifying whether it refers to SD or SE, leading to potential misinterpretation of the data. Clear distinction is essential for transparency and accuracy in reporting. Key Takeaways: • Use SD to describe data variability. • Use SE to indicate the precision of the mean. • Always specify which measure you are reporting.

Seconded

Universities *outside* the US about now should be working on 4-year positions and facilitating move abroad... With possibility of extension to 8 or 12 years... I heard of something like that in Canada or Italy, no???

Proud mama moment! Look at my little guy loving brain science with the assist from my wonderful husband!

💯💯💯 To those applying to PhD programs, this is great advice for contacing potential PIs—take note!

A deep empirical dive into the limits of generalizability led by Brendan Adkinson and @DScheinost ⭐️

Thanks @ajdneuro 😊 This was such a fun conversation with Andy, ranging from reliability to study planning to anti/localizationism and beyond. Exciting to be part of this latest incarnation of Andy’s Brain Blog!

Repeat after me: LAB WEBSITES MATTER! While it may seem like a nice-to-have... in today's world, it's a need-to-have. For you, your trainees, and your prospective team members. I couldn't have written this better myself: nature.com/articles/s42255-0…

Very cool—congrats @AnaM_Triana and @eglerean !!

University of Michigan has an open assistant professor position in Complex Systems. Amazing opportunity to do join an interdisciplinary community of faculty and students. Looking for discipline thinkers who transcend disciplines. lsa.umich.edu/cscs/news-even…
