The International Day of Women and Girls in Science is definitely one to celebrate. We have come a long way, and the future is bright and hopeful. But to get there, we need to keep acknowledging the systemic biases that sadly still exist nowadays 👇🏻

Better version of the meme.
The joke is, Nature is the one killing null results, but blaming scientists.

We are seeking a high profile, dynamic and innovative researcher. The ideal candidate will possess deep expertise in the application of cutting edge computational methods to understand the brain mechanisms (at the cellular, circuits and/or behavioral levels) associated with psychiatric disorders.

‪In solidarity with scientists and academics working in the United States, Argentina, and all countries where academic freedom is under threat. Today, French scientists and citizens rally in more that 30 cities #StandUpForScience @standupforscience.bsky.social @cdelawalla.bsky.social
Dear all,
The Stand Up For Science movement has gained exceptional momentum in France. This Friday, March 7, we will have the opportunity to collectively express our solidarity with scientists and academics working in the United States, Argentina, and all countries where academic freedom is under threat. We hope to bring them strength as they wake up to see that mobilization is already widespread here, with around fifty events taking place in thirty cities. 
Tomorrow’s marches and rallies will also be an opportunity to stand together against the threats facing public research and universities here as well. Stand Up For Science was born from the momentum of the scientists and citizens who joined it. It is now up to us to turn it into a lasting movement in the weeks ahead. There is much to be done: welcoming scientists and academics forced into exile, securing scientific data and results, driving the necessary changes to confront democratic, social, climate, ecological, and health crises, and lifting knowledge-producing and knowledge-sharing institutions out of financial distress.
On March 7, let us rise for science—and then, let us remain standing.

Is neuroscience research really working to understand the human brain? Or do we get lost in mouse cognition? I’ve asked myself this a lot since starting to work with human tissue. Our first Jonas Lab foray into untangling human hippocampal circuits is now online! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... 1/a few
cell.com
Human hippocampal CA3 uses specific functional connectivity rules for efficient associative memory
Human hippocampal CA3 networks use sparse and broad synaptic connectivity, and their recurrent synapses employ reliability, precision, and long integration times to enhance memory capacity. Thus, the human hippocampus is distinct from both rodent counterparts and human neocortical circuits.
