This is getting serious folks. It is becoming increasingly clear that the traditional clown - even three of them in a row - is insufficient to describe what we are dealing with. We require a new GigaClown emoji. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

I think it's time for a gritty reboot of Smokey and the Bandit in which @michaelhendricks.bsky.social and I drive a truck full of illegal Cheezies over the Canadian border.

The latest paper from the Shea Lab is out today online. Here @anowlan.bsky.social shows that responses to sound in the auditory cortex merge with olfactory information via the basal amygdala. This is likely an important pathway for maternal behavior www.cell.com/current-biol...

You all may recall a post I wrote last week explaining how many times the BSDneuro tweets would write themselves

When I was in graduate school, probably my second year or so, my program chair approached me in the hallway and asked: “You aren’t still studying that bird song shit are you, Steve?” Neuroscience has come along way.

A heads up as this site grows: some accounts may not be who they appear. Even among other scientists. Don’t let down your guard when following someone back.

Hey, senior grad student! I see you there, trying to hide. You're probably thinking: "That @CSHL symposium sounds cool, but I'll never be invited because my research is lame" Wrong! Tell your impostor syndrome to take a seat and apply now! Deadline extended to Dec. 15 cshl.edu/research/pos...

You would be surprised how many of Bob’s tweets were just transcriptions of things we heard or actual events. I almost fell out of my chair when I read a paper that unironically used the equivalent of Bob’s marble burying HMM.

After years of complaining from me and every other PI I know about how difficult most schools made it to submit rec letters to graduate programs (every school makes a separate account, uses different forms, etc) I feel like we’ve turned the corner and they figured it out.

We were actually "unknown" for it, but for years @neuroshea.bsky.social and I ran the bsdneuro account, which now rests in a grave befitting Bob (and his cortex).

This past week has been brutal, and I just returned from a doctor appointment to find somebody parked their Tesla in my spot. I’m feeling trolled.

I have never once done this. Is that weird? I don’t think I have ever had a figure that couldn’t wait for the main body, but I also don’t understand why it would be a problem.
