I sympathise with review pressures but cannot believe this is anywhere near an optimal solution: the ERC panel review is the weakest part of the process, based on short summaries & non-topic experts-- punishments will be given unfairly, not even based on the actual B2 applications

The number of submissions will only increase and I believe their solution is a poor fix. But my friends and I disagree about better solutions. To make resubmission intervals longer for people who get a low rating acts as a penalty for low ratings. If these ratings reliably evaluated quality: good.

Sustained alpha oscillations serve attentional prioritization in working memory, not maintenance Abstract. Recent theory on the neural basis of working memory (WM) has attributed an important role to “activity-silent” or -quiescent mechanisms, suggesting that sustained neural activity might not be essential in the retention of information. This idea has been challenged by reports of ongoing neural activity in the alpha band during WM maintenance, however. The precise role of these alpha oscillations is unclear: Do they reflect attentional prioritization of stored information, or do they serve as a general maintenance mechanism, for instance to periodically refresh synaptic traces? To address this, we designed a visual WM task involving two memory items, one of which was prioritized by being tested first for recall. The task included both short (1 second) and long (3 seconds) delay intervals between encoding and retrieval. The long delay condition allowed us to test whether the alpha-based decoding effects persist beyond the early delay period, thereby putting accounts that attribute alpha activity to generic maintenance processes to the test. Time-resolved decoding analyses revealed that both tested-first and tested-second items were initially decodable following stimulus presentation. However, only the tested-first item exhibited sustained decodability throughout the delay, particularly in the long delay condition, where it transitioned into a stable coding scheme. This prolonged representation was selectively supported by induced alpha power, which reliably tracked the prioritized tested-first item, but not the deprioritized tested-second item. Impulse-based decoding further confirmed this asymmetry, showing a selective increase in readout for the tested-second item only when it became immediately task relevant. Together, these findings suggest that sustained alpha-band activity primarily reflects attentional prioritization, rather than general memory maintenance. Unattended, deprioritized items appear to transition into an activity-quiescent state, consistent with models of synaptic storage in WM.

More evidence for the role of alpha/beta oscillations in top-down control.

It’s brutal in academia right now. A lot is out of our control, but it doesn’t cost anything to remember that there are humans behind papers and grants…reviewers, program officials and funders can be more empathetic in the face of unprecedented chaos in the US scientific enterprise.

Ist schon an vielen Unis Gang und Gäbe, dass Professuren ohne ordentliche Ausschreibung vergeben werden, oft durch vorgezogene Neubesetzungen. Schneller ist das natürlich, aber fair ist es nicht. Viele Leute haben so gar keine Gelegenheit, sich auch nur zu bewerben.

The mid-career reset: how to be strategic about your research direction A decade after completing a PhD, your research can begin to lose direction. So consider each opportunity carefully, says Mohamed Ezat.

"The mid-career stage is not a plateau; it is a pivot. If the early-career journey is about opening doors and the senior-career track is about shaping institutions, the mid-career phase is often about choosing the path that leads somewhere meaningful." www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Recently got 5 excellent reviews on a paper. Super thankful — four reviewers clearly put real thought into strengthening the work. The problem: Reviewer 2 (of course!) was, by every available indicator, substantially generated by a large language model. 🧵

Flagged it to the journal. Response: 'no direct evidence of a violation, AI for formatting is permitted.' I get it; as a senior editor myself I know we're all overwhelmed. Policies against AI-generated reviews are functionally unenforceable. And denial is costless.

Open questions I don't have answers to: Can AI review policies be enforced when denial is costless? Time for signed reviews? Do we need norms for AI-assisted vs AI-delegated reviewing? Or did we build a system so reliant on unpaid labor that this was inevitable? #AcademicChatter #OpenScience
