Job titles shape perceptions and realities—we should start by dropping the old-fashioned and misleading 'PhD student' and 'postdoc' titles!

Just read this fantastic paper by matteo saponati and Martin Vinck - great work and insights!! Thank you for the beautiful science!

🔖📋📝🤓'There is more to theory in biology than replicating the results of experiments' - Thank you, Eve Marder!! doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

Cool piece Richard Gao, especially the discussion on the definition of computational neuroscience and the difference between AI4neuro vs NeuroAI. Thanks! 🙏

🤓🌟🥳 So happy this is out! Big thanks and shout out to Jozsef Csicsvari, Gašper Tkačik, and Cristina Savin! In-depth tweet to come :)

'Scientists overestimate their ability to become and remain experts across too many domains, and underestimate the time required to solve technical problems.'. Cannot agree more, Jakob Voigts! Great article!

🤓Excited to give a talk at SAND10 (Statistical Analysis of Neural Data) in Pittsburgh next week! :)
