"Decoding EEG for optimizing naturalistic memory" out now in Journal of Neuroscience Methods!! @ELSneuroscience
TLDR; we trained neural decoders to predict memory success, then applied them to present items when people were predicted to learn well

Kamala should put Mark Warner on the VP list so we can get him to support the PRO ACT TOO!

We're thrilled to share the recording of our first live event at Penn, Rigor in Plain English! @KordingLab, @kss_phd @arjunrajlab and @thatbrass of @PlainEnglishSci sat down to talk about scientific rigor in, well, plain English! Check out the full ep below!

pls rt folks! at @neuromatch we have some funding from generous donors, but are looking to create a sustainable future for ALL our students regardless of means or geopolitics.
we are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit eligible for federal & foundation donations, all tax deductible ❤️❤️🙏
Neuromatch Academy teaches thousands of students about neuroscience, deep learning, climate. We uniquely have export permit, ~1000 applicants per year from embargoed countries, e.g., Iran. We can not accept money, making us somewhat unsustainable and may force us to eventually reject students. Who knows someone who could help fund the participation of these students?

Come to The Confound Hour at SFN 2023 (#SfN23) and share your tale of troubleshooting woe!
Special Guests: Konrad Kording (@KordingLab) & Kristin Bigos @KristinBigos
#neuroscience #brainresearch #Brain
ALT Society for Neuroscience Conference (SFN) 2023 Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2023, 6:45 PM - 8:45 PM Westin (999 9th St.) - Rooms 12/13/14 The Confound Hour: Let’s Make Some Noise! Did you have an experiment that tanked this year? Now is your time to shine! At this SFN social, we want to hear about your most beautiful confounds, artifacts, lab accidents, and disastrous mistakes. Come share your tales of scientific woe to raucous cheers! The best stories will be awarded with drink tickets. We will also play games that celebrate our heroic (sometimes mortifying) troubleshooting efforts, culminating in the coronation of a winner of the 2023 “Stuck To It” Golden Duct Tape Award.
Let's chat at #SfN23 in DC. 😋
Society for Neuroscience attendees: you're invited!
Join us Sunday, November 12th from 6pm-8pm for our free networking event!
See you at Yardbird for a great conversation with real life rigor champions @MHagenauer and @KordingLab!

Is it possible to reverse engineer a nervous system?
With @KordingLab and an epic of authors, we wrote an opinion piece that suggests the time is ripe (and also clarifies what we mean by "reverse engineering").

RT and let us know what you think!
"(Do not skip this)" is right. I knew what the literature said about sleep deprivation & let myself slip into <6 hours/night anyway. Kept justifying it until I realized half my comments were barely coherent, let alone intelligent. Sleep isn't just important, it's foundational.

We'd like to note that our #rigor materials are suitable for all career stages, from students to university presidents. 🙂
BREAKING: Stanford president to resign his post, retract “at least” 3 papers, after our reporting in @StanfordDaily exposed multiple papers with data manipulation and his refusal to retract studies when given opportunities over the course of 2 decades.
