Very happy to share the latest from my postdoc‬! 10 yrs of mouse social networks + 1.25 yrs of acoustic data ➡️ insight into vocalization & sociality in a wild population of your favorite lab model 🐁 paper: bit.ly/4n93yyD data: bit.ly/4lfFBEk code: bit.ly/4kNnMwx #bioacoustics #neuroskyence 1/8

€721 million in @erc.europa.eu Advanced Grants has been awarded to 281 leading researchers across Europe. From AI to cancer prevention and space exploration, we are investing in Europe’s most cutting-edge science. Europe remains committed to excellence and global talent. ↓

Pulsed taVNS elicits pupil dilation. However, if sham feels as intense, there is not much left. Based on our comparatively large sample (94 participants, single-blind crossover), we show that a highly variable sham response explains this. #neuroskyence 🩺 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Congratulations to our Human Neural Circuitry team; bit.ly/4dEyX7Z publishes today in Science! This was the hardest challenge of my career, but one of the most rewarding, after years of rebuilding– & expanding my inpatient neuropsychiatry in the service of basic discovery bsky.app/profile/deis...

Spam emails from predatory academic journals: Dearest Dr Professor Landes, may you grace us with your world-leading expertise? Emails from actual academic journals: We've created an account in our system for you. Review this paper, kthx.

Evasion of peer review is a hallmark of pseudoscience. But even more insidious is the obviation of scientific scrutiny by publishing in pseudoscientific journals that exist to provide an illusion of scientific legitimacy. There’s nothing new about MAHA’s propaganda tactics.

🚨🚨 Deranged letter from Education Secretary Linda McMahon to Harvard’s president, cutting off federal funding for any new grants. Worth reading in full. It is NUTS.

It’s very hard to see this as anything other than cruelty for its own sake.

Europe’s choice is clear. To put science at the heart of its economy. To become the home of scientific freedom and collaboration. And to welcome talent from all over the world. I’m glad to present the first elements of our Choose Europe Initiative. → europa.eu/!TTbWbJ

Being a millennial academic is like arriving at a party where the place has already been trashed and someone called the cops. Sure looks as if it was a fun party, once upon a time.

Celebrating The Brain Prize! Congrats Frank!! @hlsalliance.bsky.social

When we use TMS to treat depression, we think it alters neural activity in a deep brain structure known as the subgenual anterior cingulate (sgACC). But this is hard to test directly, until our preprint with @coreykeller.bsky.social, @neuro-engineer.bsky.social, Nick Trapp, and Aaron Boes (UIowa) 1/

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

Published now in Psychophysiology: We show that taVNS decreases HRV independent of a caloric load. This suggests that acute taVNS does not increase cardiovagal activity ("vagal tone"). #neuroskyence 🩺 Led by @kristinkaduk.bsky.social w/ @koeniglab.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately. The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

NIH imposes major cuts on indirect costs. Make no mistake, this is an attack on universities, intended to paralyze research with federal control. arstechnica.com/science/2025...
