I know I'm biased (married to the EIC and friends with lots of the team) but... 500 papers is amazing!

Imaging Neuroscience has shown what can be achieved in breaking away from for-profit publishing when you have a dedicated, capable team and a supportive scientific community. Super proud.

Don't forget to write 2025 as

I'm loving this idea of microfeminism. About how every day habit the little things can change the world. I'm especially loving the school teacher that calls the dad first. These acts are not insignificant they sometimes matter more. What is your act of micro feminism? www.npr.org/2024/12/04/g...
