more MEG artefacts: the tram runs in ~200 meter distance from the MEG lab here. even though the MEG sensors are shielded by a few tons of metal, they still pick up the railway traction power signal (at 16.67 Hz in Germany), a demo of their high sensitivity.
Did you ever notice that Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog are left-handers? Here is a short explanation why left-handedness is so common among the muppets.

IMPACT OF PARENTHOOD ON UNIVERSITY EMPLOYMENT. Line graph shows how the probability of holding a research position changes from four years before to seven years after having children.
Becoming a parent is much more detrimental to womenโs academic careers than it is to menโs

Hello Psychology Bluesky - does anyone know an open data depository where I could send Research Methods students to find datasets? I had a link to an OSF repository, but it no longer works after the revamp. Thank you!
I am currently recruiting a PhD student to work on our "Motor complexity and aging" project funded by the @fwovlaanderen.bsky.social

Truly we are now the โAirstrip Oneโ of Orwellโs imagination.
It is absolutely astonishingly impressive how much work scientific publishers have managed to shunt onto authors, who aren't paid, while they continue to increase their enormous profits. The submission process itself takes about 5 hours. I miss the 90s ๐ข

My 2-year-old said "suncream makes us warm", and boy was he unprepared for the inevitable stats lesson.
MRC / @ukri.org are moving to in-person panel interviews for applicants.
Have they done a disability and equity impact assessment on this?
I know some great scientists with great ideas who would be unfairly disadvantaged, due to minority ethnicity, class background or neurodivergence.
Feel like I'm living through an Asimov story as I explain to my 2 yr old why I don't bring our robot vacuum cleaner (which he and his older sister named "Naomi") into the bombshelter when the sirens go off.
Aperiodic parameters are systematically dependent on the frequency range used to estimate them. We evaluated intracortical recordings of 62 patients using both Specparam and IRASA.

I did a Meet the Scientist session at my son's nursery today. Absolutely terrifying, but so cool. We did EEG and talked about the model brain. Amazing deadpan replies from 4 year olds. The best reply to "Does anyone know what the brain does?" was "It stops your head from going flat". Not wrong, kid.

Academia is a system in which extensive feedback is provided to UGs for a one paragraph piece of coursework that was probably written by Chat GPT, but no feedback is provided to researchers for a 30 page, ยฃ0.5M funding application that took months of effort. ๐ค
