And it's done! The 2023 Workshop has officially ended 🎉 We are excited to have this amazing group of participants and keynotes join our ever-growing #MESEC community

Why are we conscious? Don't say "I know the answer". Instead, come help us figure out the best way of asking the question. To do so, join the fab ERC_XP team. Extra credit for a computational cognitive neuroscience background. crcn.ulb.ac.be/news/opening-o…

Our lab currently has an open postdoc position in the field of perceptual neuroscience. Specific questions: w flexibility, and a focus on vision; Techniques: open (fMRI, E/MEG, iEEG, stim, modeling); Salary: $70,000 or higher (w excellent benefits); Start date: flexible in 2024

I'm seeing more & more people use partial correlation during model comparison to identify the contribution of a model to prediction *after controlling* for other models. However, the correct approach is *not* to use partial correlation. A brief explanation. 🧵 1/n
