When Animorphs ended, fans were vocal about how they didn't like the depressing ending.
K.A. Applegate responded with amongst the most brutal letters I've read.
It takes a generational talent to tell your fans "If you're mad at me because that's what you have to take away from Animorphs, too bad."

Curious what lessons from genomics will apply to whole-brain scans. Not (now) obvious that full mapping will unveil all the secrets of the brain/mind.
But complex interactions seems to be bread and butter in comp neurosci, so is it as a field more ready for the challenge?

This is wonderful!
🧪 E11 Bio is excited to share a major step towards brain mapping at 100x lower cost, making whole-brain connectomics at human & mouse scale feasible (🧠→🔬→💻). Critical for curing brain disorders, building human-like AI systems, and even simulating human brains.

seeing my courses on dynamical systems and machine learning converge in hamiltonian monte xarlo was surprisingly satisfying... now to try to actually implement it

It's the time of year when I teach research proposal writing to the new PhD students. Here is my 2 page PhD project template that we work with. Many people find it useful, so sharing again. LaTeX template (and PDF): github.com/rmcelreath/P...
