There is precedent for claiming your first authorship without taking it away from your late colleague. For example
www.frontiersin.org/journals/imm...
Author contribution snippet reading, "The co-first authorship order was determined via the best of three rounds in Super Smas Bros. Both YB and BZ contributed equally and have the right to list their name first in their CV."

Knowing things is good.

Collage of 5 images from Stand Up for Science protest in San Francisco. Middle image is a wide shot of crowd holding signs against backdrop of bright clear sky and the S.F. City Hall building. Surrounding four images depict protest signs: - A trans flag and the chemistry pun, "Science is for Alkynes." - A handwritten sign reading "Knowing Things Is Good." - Another handwritten sign reading "I'm Not A Mad Scientist; I'm a Scientist Who's Really Mad." - A stenciled sign reading "Got the Plague? Me Either. Thank You Science."

Talking optimal signal properties for assisted #echolocation at UCBerkeley Vision Science's #BAVRD conference, where our lab was among the @skeriresearch.bsky.social contingent. TLDR: in biomimetic sonar as in life, slowing down clears things up 🔊, in this case for object echo discrimination!
Conference poster titled "Optimizing Signal Parameters to Enhance Echoacoustic Perception of Objects in Humans" being discussed by a long, dark-haired presenter and a visitor with a long gray ponytail and colorful Route-66-themed shirt UC Berkeley Campanile tower seen through a bright red-orange tubular steel sculpture, set against a clear blue sky and green campus foliage

Epilogue: the reviews come back
Video frame of Fiona Shaw's character from True Detective: Night Country, Rose Agineau, reclining wistfully in her chair with a cigarette. Subtitles display her dialogue: "Every damned word I'd written in my entire life was meaningless."

Had a great time speaking to CS grad seminar students at
SF State yesterday! Thanks to Ilmi Yoon for the invite, and everyone for your patience, engagement, and interest.

Minimalist title slide for a talk titled "Computational approaches to understanding perception and the brain," by Santani Teng from Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute, for the SFSU Computer Science Graduate Seminar on Nov. 15, 2023. The black text is on a plain white background except for two horizontal lines near the top and bottom, and a light gray background diagram of a human brain on the right half of the image.
