Researchers at @MIT, @Harvard, @MassEyeAndEar and @Columbia have developed a biocompatible microphone that could lead to cochlear implants that sit entirely in the ear canal, with no cumbersome external hardware. spectrum.ieee.org/cochlear-i…

Today marks the launch of the Federal Open Science Repository of Canada - this is an important step forward in #openscience in 🇨🇦. Huge congrats to the departments and agencies who worked relentlessly to make this happen! 👏👏👏 open-science.canada.ca/home
For @ChiefSciCan, the arrival of the Federal Open Science Repository is a significant step forward in enabling greater openness of government #research and helps promote a culture of #science for all. bit.ly/3SjLYKY

It’s okay to not be okay. If you need help, or if you know someone who does, please reach out by calling or texting 9-8-8. That’s the number for Canada’s new suicide crisis helpline – and it’s now available across the country, in English and French, 24/7.

New study on motion sickness in VR gaming from @uwaterloo @multisensebrain @will_UWkin "suggest that the severity of a person's cybersickness is affected by how our senses adjust to the conflict between reality and virtual reality."

Study explores individual differences in motion sickness with VR gaming. The way our senses adjust while playing high-intensity #VirtualReality games plays a critical role in understanding why some people experience severe cybersickness and others don't. buff.ly/3LJ2DUX
