no. I just read them, I find that a) some titles don‘t even ring a bell, b) for some papers I couldn‘t even tell you the punch line. I mean, I sometimes open a paper in my library and find I‘ve highlighted it some time ago but don‘t remember anything, so it‘s apparently normal…

I tried to read 1 paper on every workday in 2022. Here's some reflections on this project: fediscience.org/@HeedLab/109…

HeedLab (@[email protected])

For the past year, I had planned to read one paper on every workday. As I’m going on vacation, today was my last reading day of the year. I’m now putting the project to rest after one year. If you...

Hi. Since apparently the „free-speech promoter“ Twitter can‘t bear people pointing to content on Mastodon, my account here may not live that much longer given my username. If you care to follow my updates, Find me on Mastodon.

paper 139: see link fediscience.org/@HeedLab/109…

HeedLab (@[email protected])

paper 139 bigger fingers have worse tactile acuity; this paper shows this is also the case for kids. Yet, when kids grow (as they get older), their acuity (cross-secitonally) deosn’t get worse. There...

paper 138: see link fediscience.org/@HeedLab/109…

HeedLab (@[email protected])

paper 138 addresses the puzzle that movement adaptation has so far not exhibited context learning with arbitrary, e.g. visual/auditory cues. This paper shows it can – if the timing is right. This...

some additional thoughts on paper 134 and the organization of PPC fediscience.org/@HeedLab/109…

HeedLab (@[email protected])

Gordon et al. mention that primary somatosensory homunculus (S1) might be myth, too. There is discussion on this (e.g. =>link). Organization of touch beyond S1 is clearly biased towards some body...

paper 134 - fascinating (content now on Mastodon) fediscience.org/@HeedLab/109…

paper 134 fascinating - multiple studies in one, showing convincingly that our concept of primary motor cortex (M1) as a “somatotopic”=body-like homunculus is likely incorrect. The proposed structure...

while I’m not as convinced about the color of grass over there, it’s worth a try, so come aboard. Mastodon works via multiple communities with their own servers. You can try, for instance, fediscience.org

FediScience.org

fediscience.org is a social network for scientists run by FediScience e.V., an international association dedicated to promoting scientific communication.

Everyone moving from twitter to mastodon is very likely to fail because it is a collective action problem, benefits depend on others actions. Here's how it can succeed. It will require your commitment for 1 month to do a few things. Read and retweet if you commit to do them.
I’ve unlinked Mastodon/Twitter and will post notices here for anyone interested to read the HeedLab output. (2/n)

the move over to Mastodon is impressive, but there’s still (to little suprise) only a fraction of people there who are active here. I’ve decided to help trying out @BrianNosek’s suggestion to move my activity over to Mastodon (fediscience.org/@HeedLab) for November (1/n)
