Here for the chips. I embrace meaning, irrationality, nonlinearity, and complexity as defining features of humanity. I don’t understand speed walking.

Everyone needs at least one colleague to routinely remind them that sometimes less is more.

Do fewer things better.

You don't need to solve every interesting problem or answer every interesting question you encounter.

Is Alzheimer’s prevention next? We didn’t have GLP-1 at the top of the list. If you told me that the venomous saliva of a Gila monster was going to be the answer, I would have probably said you were nuts. Love science! 🦎🧠

The narrative on old people being more likely to be fraud victims was tough to evaluate given how overtargeted they were for many years. Now seems tech is making it easier to target the young & ppl are now saying young adults are more susceptible. Anyone can be a victim. This is an all ages problem

Scientists - consider writing up your research for Frontiers for Young Minds (if you are brave enough to face kid reviewers 😉).

Here's how:

This is a good analysis explaining why the scientic migration to bluesky worked when it failed to take hold with mastadon, threads, or linkedin.

The key is network effects: Moving an entire community is hard and people are reluctant to leaveit www.science.org/content/arti...

Clinical Psych PhD admissions is wild!

I’m not a clinical sort, but a subset of my department’s PhD students are. We received 811 applications this year for ~8 positions. Of those, each of our non-clinical faculty: 10s of apps; each of our clinical faculty: 100s (for 1 slot). Genuinely curious:..
