I assigned random gender/ethnicity labels to scientific abstracts from the literature and then asked Claude to do a thematic analysis. Claude identified a clinical versus computational split for female/male authors and a DEI focus for Black/URM authors. All in completely random data.

Just got home (well, just woke up after getting home) from this year's @achems.bsky.social Conference! I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity to present my work to such a lovely group of people at the Polak Young Investigator session, and I received a lot of useful feedback.

Cool news for the tiny sliver of people who use Positron/VS Code and Typora on macOS: the latest version of Typora added a new VS Code extension for opening Markdown flavored files in Typora: support.typora.io/Open-in-Typo... That makes this post here a lot easier! #rstats #databs

Ever thought that food tastes bland when you have a cold? In this piece, I explain how that happens as I summarise my latest article on the neural encoding of odours in the canonical taste cortex! theconversation.com/smell-trigge...
theconversation.com
Smell triggers the same brain response as taste does – even if you haven’t eaten anything
Our latest study showed that taste and smell were both found to activate a region of the brain important for taste, hunger and thirst.
