This is my yearly reminder to graduate programs that when reference letter writers are asked to rank an applicant as being “top 1%”, you’re assuming they all had >100 trainees

hey -- i'm hiring a postdoc! the ad will be up shortly, but looking for someone with network neuroscience experience (very broadly). the position isn't tied to any specific project/grant, so lots of flexibility in terms of what you'd actually *do*. hmu if you might be interested/want to learn more!

How does the brain handle age-related deterioration in its structural properties? In a new paper (led by former PhD student, William Stanford) we show that age-related changes in the ‘controllability’ of brain networks is mitigated by redundancy in the brain. www.nature.com/articles/s42...
