I highly recommend this intro to the philosophy of scientific explanation to all my neuroscience colleagues and others interested in how to think about scientific investigation and development of theory, e.g., it's highly relevant to our ongoing discussions about the brain organization of language.
New book "Explanation in Biology" with Cambridge University Press is out & open access!

Covers (1) causal explanation & (2) non-causal/mathematical explanation in life sciences--bio, neuro, etc 🌿🧬🧠

Introduction to philosophical work on scientific explanation!

William Labov died last week after a ground-breaking career at the intersection of language use and culture. His work on variability motivated me early on (doi.org/10.1006/brln...) and has since motivated our work on whole brain contributions to comprehension (doi.org/10.1101/2023...). Thank you.

Very pleased to report that my open access article on precision medicine in neurology has finally appeared! Besides "-omics", discussion includes computation, devices, brain simulation (thevirtualbrain.org), and value-based care. Hope you find it useful! Take a look: doi.org/10.1016/j.ar...
