A new computational model that accounts for individual differences in human color vision can help determine why the colors of today’s displays sometimes appear different from person to person. Read more: bit.ly/4hyWzyw #Vision 🧪 💡

The image shows the model’s simulations of color differences between observers viewing a Rec. 2020 capable display calibrated for the CIE 2006 2° standard observer. The upper left and lower right quadrants show the original color. The upper right quadrants show the color as seen by an observer with shifted sensitivity to red light. The lower left quadrants show the color as seen by a person with a shifted sensitivity to green light.

French paleontologists found a new mosasaurid in ancient freshwater deposits near Provence. Unlike the sea-going mosasaurs most people are familiar with, this older species had long limbs and was adapted to life in shallow freshwater! 🧪 peercommunityjournal.org/articles/10....

NEW: In March the White House released an FY27 budget request that zeroed out the National Science Foundation's directorate of Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE). For months it was unclear what would happen. Now, with FY26 over, the damage to SBE is coming to light. My reporting:

Dealing with difficult people may be hazardous to your health. Each additional "hassler" in your network predicts 1.5% faster biological aging—and poorer physical and mental well-being over time. Non-spouse family hasslers are the most problematic. Some ties aren't worth the toll they take.

The reports about the rapes at Cornell—and the lack of accountability—are sickening. So is the victim blaming: “If you don’t want to be raped, don’t go to a frat party.” Instead of telling girls and women to avoid harm, we should be raising boys and men not to commit it: Don’t. Rape. Women.
