I wrote something mildly irresponsible:
A Bestiary of Modern Scientists
Featuring:
- The McScientist
- The Broker
- The Hipster
- The Socialite
- The Costanza
- The Late Blooming Theorist
I suspect many will recognize local fauna.

Announcements for Open Mind, an MIT Press Open Access journal for Cognitive Science
1. We are now “Diamond” access for the foreseeable future (at least 2 years at this point): this means there are NO CHARGES for publication (or submission, or anything)

New @CurrentBiology paper from @SchynsPhilippe lab funded by
@wellcometrust: “Pre-frontal cortex guides dimension-reducing transformations in the occipito-ventral pathway for categorization behaviors” with @JiayuZhan @Joachim__Gross @drrobinince. We investigate how brain networks actively transform the same complex input scene images into their task-specific lower-dimensional manifolds to support flexible categorization behaviors.

What is the computation underlying confidence? With @DobyRahnev and @Mynameismedha, we compared distance-to-criterion models to Bayesian models in two experiments, and provided support for the distance-to-criterion models over Bayesian models. 1/13

Thanks-36 authors went thru this in month after publication. Sig errors in method, reporting and inference, covered here in depth #LeakyUmbrella ☂nature.com/articles/s41380-0…
Serotonin hypothesis of depression: balance (and imbalance) is in the eye of the beholder.
@DrBexWilkinson & @sameerjauhar shed fresh light on this research and what it means for mental health science and practice.
