It's Transgender Day of Visibility, and I have mixed emotions. So I wrote something about it 😊 (this is the first in a series; the next one is in a few weeks and is about disinformation campaigns) pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/my-...

My mixed emotions on Transgender Day of Visibility
Around the world, trans people are under attack. So, while Transgender Day of Visibility is a celebration, we need to talk about the dread as well, says a University of Melbourne expert.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

I will die on this hill... Rosalind Franklin was the first to theorise the physical structure of DNA and Watson and Crick did some fancy interpretation of base pairing.

I struggle enough as it is calculating dates, but it's almost the end of February and I'm still forgetting that it's already 2025 🤦🏻 #PhDLife #AcademicLife

THREAD Things that didn't make the news that will likely change our lives for the better The news is not an accurate reflection of the world. Good news doesn't get reported as much. Here are the wonderful things researchers have achieved recently. 1/24

It will be alright in the end. And if it's not alright, it is not yet the end.

A little challenge for neuro/cog sci (/psych/comp-sci/bio/philosophy!) blueys: How would you define "cognition"?

FYI #TeamSport is surprisingly hard to define
Image is a picture of the definition of team sport from the Merriam-Webster dictionary website. Text reads as follows

Team sport (noun)

I had a fantastic time sharing the findings of my rTMS study at #ACNS It was great to have so many people interested in my research, and to also learn about what others are doing in this space. Looking forward to @ylmariano.bsky.social presenting their fast talk tomorrow ! @acnsau.bsky.social

Even though it's technically day 2 of the #ACNS2024 it was a great first day for me full of fascinating talks about music, processing, & chatting with fellow PhD students & researchers alike! 🧠 Also massive kudos to @tinotoufexis.bsky.social for smashing his poster pres & repping #ActiveBrainUC! 🙌🏼
