If we’re talking about ‘generational investment’, Canada needs faculty positions for postdocs.
There have been virtually no cog psych/neuro jobs in the past three years.

My sister lives in #Evanston, IL and feels the severity of the situation is not well reported nationally. The local paper interviewed residents after the Halloween assaults, and she says that matches what she's seen herself and heard from neighbors.

Do you ever wish you could just use python to pull together the files and code for running FSL's randomise? Me too! I made this: github.com/jmumford/ran... It will even replace the numbers in the file outputs with contrast names of your choosing (and replace corrp with 1minusp).
