This is gates keeping

Oh look, a Harvard professor who has never published a paper on the topic of intelligence, has never taught a course on the topic on intelligence, weighs in on the meaning of IQ. Dude, Gould did it, 40 years ago. He was wrong then, you are wrong now. Bored.

This does not appear to be an ironic post. 'Let me teach you how to get away with it' 🤦‍♂️

Nice thread, except -- be the 1%. The 'experiment' has been debunked. (e.g., vox.com/2018/6/13/1744…)

Hopefully this is not meant literally, but then again if the training set of these claims is any indication…

After careful consideration, I have renounced my membership in the Academy for Health and Lifespan Research (The Academy for Health & Lifespan Research). I find it deeply distressing that we’ve gotten to a point where dishonesty in science is normalized to an extent that nobody is shocked when a tenured…

I'm pretty sure that's not how you spell 'cheering'

If you want to 'live the good life', self-control is crucial.

Annual Reviews has a crystal-clear, comprehensive and smart expert-guide to self-control research created by Michael Inzlicht Kaitlyn M. Werner, PhD Julia Briskin and Brent W. Roberts. It's also a clarion call for change in the…

Interesting thread on transgenerational epigenetic inheritance (or the lack thereof)

This looks like amazing work

Leaky blood-brain barrier in long-COVID associated brain fog

This study confirms everything I have seen in the microscope over the last few years.
They use a technique called dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), an imaging technique that can measure…

We need to be cautious (and Crémieux does a great job at that AFAIK) as it’s still early but (at least many of) these concerns appear legitimate. Will need to do a deeper dive later

Tired reviewer 2:
Please consider adding an experiment to your paper

Wired reviewer 2:
How about you add a full systematic review, run a meta-analysis, and then we’ll see

Important development for the field

Important detective work here by Crémieux on the recent exercise/depression meta-analysis-- worth a read👇

Imagine the look on the parents's face when they found out their last kid who is off to college 700km away from home was still going to be living with them

'Fluid intelligence was not found to improve as a result of training, and improvements in working memory were not related to changes in fluid intelligence.'

Sora is good but let’s be honest there are still obvious telltale signs
