Don't miss the @BritishNeuro Members Meeting, next week 24-25 April 🧠
I'll be debating 'a revolution in sustainable neuroscience is needed more now than in open neuroscience'
with
@Dom_Makowski of @Sussex_Psych
@hjhope of @wellcometrust
@josephclift of @BritishNeuro
The countdown is on… only one week till our Members’ Meeting!
We have a fantastic line-up of talented researchers giving short ‘Rapid Fire’ talks about the current neuroscience research advances being made.

I'm very excited to announce that I will be speaking at the @BritishNeuro Members' Meeting on April 24th!
I will be discussing our adaptation of an attention training paradigm with real-time fMRI, for subsequent implementation in participants with ADHD.🧠

How can it be that in time of climate breakdown one of the largest conferences in the world keeps on doing the same thing?

The world has gotten much better for humans. But it's gotten much worse for factory farmed animals -- and there are far more of them.
Under reasonable assumptions, their suffering may outweigh all the increases in human welfare of the last 60 years.
