Preach Self report can only describe what can be perceived. But what if sensation is accurate but perception is not? I'm very biased tho. Years of teaching people to sing with an instrument they can't see (not to mention a 20 year career wrangling my own voice)... #neuroskyence

This increased functional connectivity continues to be robust in musicians (esp singers) - more evidence that learning to play an instrument is beneficial. 🧠🎶 (And yes, you can start learning to sing at any age!) #neuroskyence #music

One last thing I’ll say about this is that judging by people’s messages, the audio version has some stuff not in the edited online transcript, including a discussion of the false tension around empathy in journalism, and a bit about paying attention to sparrows.

New paper alert! Have you ever looked at single-trial fMRI activation maps? If so, you know that they are super variable. Here we show that the variability is not just noise. In fact, the same task can consistently elicit different activation patterns. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I've decided it's perfectly normal to mutter quietly to yourself as you walk around campus. Action provides a conduit for thoughts, whether it's speaking or writing or just moving... If you ever find yourself bothered by over-thinking or ruminating, my best advice is to just do something physical!
