How to design your academic website - Nature Human Behaviour
An academic website serves as both a public-facing window on the world wide web and an important internal laboratory resource. In this ‘How to’ piece, I outline how to build your academic website, inc...

yes, the git commit to update the website on github pages is pretty cool! I feel many people (me also) now use this template: academicpages.github.io
Academic Pages is a ready-to-fork GitHub Pages template for academic personal websites

no info regarding laminar profile here from this data (only two electrodes which have this type of signal), but of course it would be interesting to know 🙂

some of them def! but others go on for an extended period of time.
what is your burst cut-off threshold in cycles? 😅

(happy to be back in data-land! after lots of time spent last month on superboring paperwork, time that is lost forever 😶‍🌫️😖)

it's this service, collaborative Markdown documents: hackmd.io
Marijn said it's more stable with 100s of participants compared to something like Google docs.

what question would to be most interesting to you in regarding the structural MRI? maybe I can check 🙂
(I think there is MRI for at least a subset of the participants)

also great: extremely motivated + nice participants! there also were tracks for: FieldTrip + EEGLAB + Brainstorm, the other toolboxes for MEG/EEG, with instructors interacting well, no animosities, great community.

all orchestrated by great team behind @cuttingeeg.bsky.social ❤️🙂 #PracticalMEEG2025

the live document was super interesting to run in a course of this size. participants were asking questions in it and they were either answered in the document (by a trainEEr) or on stage depending on how general the question was. idea from my co-teacher Marijn van Vliet, who used the tool before. 🙂

for support we had 6 so called 'trainEErs' who helped us out (tremendously) with everything from 1-on-1 questions to answering the live document (where questions during the whole course were collected) to demonstrating the code on stage. the aim was to train more people in providing these tutorials.

(I will be in Aix-en-Provence next week, at the on-site part of the event to help out with the more extensive mne-python course. it will be intense. 🙃)

so if one is rejecting NeuroImage because of high APC, that should also be a no for Human Brain Mapping & Cerebral Cortex. 🙃

that's maybe why I ended up with JNeuro papers recently. we also did J of Cognitive Neuroscience (MIT press).

they didn't seem very active in the past, ~20 articles per year according to google scholar vs. ~350 for you folks, but I am keeping tabs on it! 🙂

if a paper is rejected by Imaging Neuroscience (65%? reject rate), the authors will look for alternatives, but what are the good alternatives? I am not supersure; shun NeuroImage, but then send to another journal from commercial publisher with high APC? 😶‍🌫️ feels strange

this is from MRI data that we acquired here for a project (my actual work 😬)

but there is a lot of open MRI data available now, e.g. on openneuro.org, I think one could definitely make this using free resources.

🩷 they made fun of me around here for excessive color use, but this barbie type pink is a supermagnet for the kids, definitely sparks the initial interest. 🙂

3D printed! the human ones are with length scaled to 25%, but if I would reprint, I would do 33%, because there are definitely some resolution issues. 🙂
