For decades, the US government has painstakingly kept American science #1 globally—and every facet of American life has improved because of it. The internet? Flu shot? Ozempic? All grew out of federally-funded research. Now all that's being dismantled. 1/ www.technologyreview.com/2025/02/21/1...

Claim to defend "free speech"—only to crack down on press freedom, censor science, prepare the jailing of political opponents, threaten to plunder allies for resources, & deport those who don’t look like you. Demand "free speech" just so you can openly salute Hitler again. This is where we're at.

Meanwhile, not only is Bannon doing a Nazi salute at CPAC (to raptorous applause), but Musk is waving a chainsaw on stage. Politics as a pro wrestling show, somewhere along a continuum from Caligula to Hitler. www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

The political weight that Vance and others give to social media and their definition of free-speech is for me the best sign for how dependent their power is on it and more and more reason to get seriously working on a democratic version of online platforms.

New preprint by Michael Wolff and me, on accelerating visual perception! The perception of an image can be accelerated by another before it. But how does this happen in the brain? Michael developed a new method to quantify the temporal shift across time in EEG. 1/3 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Tell me you’re insecure without telling me you’re insecure. You. Can’t. Erase. Us. Dude. Take pictures down. Burn books. Ban knowledge. We’ll continue doing meticulous science. You can’t erase curiosity, our integrity, our drive for knowledge & excellence. It’s our nature -not yours, we know.

We could be doing science for the next 2-3 days. Instead, we have to waste this time to prove our publication record in a ridiculously overcomplicated way (just so it is reflected on my salary). All this info is already on ORCID and other platforms, but let’s waste everyone’s time instead.

I just learned the very sad news that Eleanor Maguire passed away. It is very unlikely that I would be where I am if it wasn't for the work that she did since the early 2000s. She was a real trailblazer in the cognitive neuroscience of autobiographical memory, and conducted some (1/n)

One thing that really helps me (at work and beyond) is writing yearly reports: what I achieved, what I didn’t, and my goals for the next year. Yes, it sounds SUPER BORING and a year seems like an odd timeframe, but doing this it helps to believe (😂) that I am on the right track.
