I’m excited to share our (@action_brain @Brian_Corneil) preprint commentary on recent work by Yu & Katz et al on face-detection by the primate superior colliculus. We highlight their impressive work and provide an alternative explanation of their finding. doi.org/10.31234/osf.i…

Effects of 5Hz-rTUS (tbTUS) on corticospinal excitability are less robust than we initially thought. Check out my new preprint with @drcarysevans and Po-Yu Fong showing that offline excitatory TUS-TMS effects don't replicate. Thread below 👇 doi.org/10.1101/2024.1…

Using non-invasive MRI, we found a pathway in dog brains that predicts receptive vocabulary size. It’s left-lateralized & connects regions that produce and perceive vocal communication. A convergently evolved arcuate fasciculis? Read at @CurrentBiology: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

When I was 17, it was a very good year. It was a very good year for small town girls. And soft summer nights... #NarrativeStyle

Big news for applicants and reviewers! CIHR, @NSERC_CRSNG, and @SSHRC_CRSH will be transitioning away from the CCV to a new narrative-style CV for funding opportunities. science.gc.ca/site/science/e…

Today we honour and remember WO Patrice Vincent and Cpl Nathan Cirillo. 10 years ago, we lost these two brave men in acts of terrorism on Canadian soil. The military community continues to grieve these losses. Our condolences go to their families and friends. #WeWillRememberThem

List of high-level Alzheimer's researchers accused of credible fraud:🧵 #1 - Marc Tessier-Lavigne Genentech pointed out problems in his 2009 Nature paper in 2012. After an expose by @tab_delete, he had to resign from Stanford Presidency, but can still run lab and do research.
