I really like this package! Lots of potential for my field (neuroscience) as well

@getcoldturkey.com i love your software & have tried it successfully myself. Have you had thoughts about a version teachers/professors could ask students to install & the timer is synchronized (everyone starts and stops at the same time) and the file gets saved to a common location?

Amazing! Thank you!

congrats! Is there a preprint version of the article? I can’t access this version

I was asked to give a guest lecture this morning for the Health Sciences Department on brain aging @carleton.ca. Sometimes it's really neat to speak to people outside your usual bubble (in my case, Psychology/Cognitive Science). Students across many fields are doing such cool and interesting work!

This is awesome! Do you know if this measure correlates with the attention squared tasks of Draheim/Engel fame?

I've changed my approach to reading & reviewing papers. Rather than reading on my computer, I read on my e-ink device (supernote) & mark them up there, then they're synchronized back to my computer, where I summarize the notes in a document. This has been much better for close reading! #academia

I can understand if it’s on purpose, sometimes though the weak LOR is the only thing in the application that stands out (including compared to other glowing letters). Then you‘re left wondering if the person KNOWS something, or if they didn‘t have time to write a strong letter

All good points Andrea

Reading applications for NSERC/OGS, I think there should be a course on how to write excellent letters of recommendation. Some things shouldn't be brought up in LORs (they are actively detrimental or irrelevant). Positive points should be concrete. LORs that are too short aren't helpful. #academia

Very cool - and useful for generating predictions/simulations based on pilot data (if you think the pilot data is representative)

it is - but now you also have a pair of Bluetooth headphones that can take phone calls! I still take mine out sometimes, but stick with it - you’ll find you’re less tired in the evening from active listening all day

Hi #canadian researchers - please sign this petition to help ensure funding isn’t cut to tri council agencies (NSERC, SSHRC, and CIHR). We’re looking at potential 15% cuts to ALL federal spending including grants win.newmode.net/canadianasso...

That sounds so cool! Lucky students!

Teaching graduate statistics is such a wonderful experience - I love being in the position where I can say here are all these cool resources, here's what you can do, here's how to do good science #academicsky #R

Definitely had a few, but not quite that many all at once. Block and report them

This is such cool work Hunter - by any chance did you look at whether the participants had prosthetics?

Fantastic - please add me!

Mostly looking at language loss with dementia progression & new ways of assessing that carefully. Lots of implications for how we should measure language and cognition in the presence of cognitive decline before making inferences about cognitive reserve though!

Forgot to tag @marcocalabria.bsky.social - and it appears Boon Lead Tee is not on Bluesky

Fantastic #AAIC session on Language as a Lens chaired by Dr. Marco Calabria and Dr. Boon Lead Tee. This was such an exciting session & I love the integration of new technology and tools for assessing language and its relation to dementia and cognition.

#psychjobs

This is a great initiative @nirx-nirs.bsky.social - do you do something similar?

I wonder if #AI will close academic discourse even further as people mistrust people they don’t already know. We were already being flooded with papers pre-A.I., now we need a way to verify quality in an era when the internet is being hit with a tsunami of content. #academia

Maybe this is what print newspapers and letter mail needs to recover…

Would it be possible to have ONE sign on for all journals? It would be absolutely glorious to have a single place to submit, track your review assignments etc. Going through the dance of what's your password for Elsevier/Cambridge/Sage etc journal X, reset, login every time is getting old. #academia

The Royal Society is offering £4 million per researcher for scientists in the USA who want to move to the UK. The money offered is £30 million in all for all the Fellowships. These Faraday Fellowships are for 5 to 10 years.

To any international #U.S. bound students who may have had their lives upturned by recent events, please consider #Carleton, consider #Canada. I am open to applications from graduate students #academia.

My mac has started making an ominous clicking noise - time to make sure the Time Machine backup is current…
