Last night Adam Kampff, the glue, the light, the catalyst, the builder, the smile, left us. He and his work transformed the lives of many labs, scientists, students. He inspired and was generous to his last transformation, working tirelessly to set up a foundation to continue the work.Thank you!

Today I woke up to the sounds of the rainforest and read you were on your way to the stars. You inspired me so much. You made me dare. You inspired so many and spread stardust on your way to democratizing knowledge. You will be missed but your inspiration lives on.

In Buzzy Papers we set out to compile some of the most exciting neuroscience papers published in the past two years! A panel of 10 neuroscientists selected the papers from a preliminary list our editorial team assembled by considering publications in top neuroscience journals

Put your belief about how ai and bi, capital and labor interact and simulate the economy using our intelligencesaturation.org simulator. Depending parameters you obtain runaway success with wages going to infinity, the evisceration of wages, or everything in between.

If you've ever asked me what my wife does and I tried to explain something about glaciers and forest mice and climbing...this is what I was talking about.

Go prairie mouse go!!! 🐭
🧠🌟🐭 Excited to share some of my postdoc work on the evolution of dexterity!

We compared deer mice evolved in forest vs prairie habitats. We found that forest mice have:
(1) more corticospinal neurons (CSNs)
(2) better hand dexterity
(3) more dexterous climbing, which is linked to CSN number🧵

This all started 10k years ago when glaciers receded from North America and left in their wake a natural neuroscience experiment! Some deer mice moved into newly available forest habitat, and today we have forest subspecies, which show dexterous climbing, and prairie subspecies that don't

Very excited to share the amazing work of my friend and colleague @kelseytea.bsky.social !! Ecologically relevant behavior, crazy differences, connectivity, activity, genetics! A beautiful story of motor evolution. And she is on the #jobmarket!

I am thrilled to share our latest work: we identified a population of central amygdala neurons that promote the earliest and perhaps most important social behavior: pup suckling!... We also developed new tools for pup neuroscience
