To improve reproducibility in (systems) neuroscience we have developed: - NeuroBlueprint (neuroblueprint.neuroinformat…), a simple, standard data folder specification - datashuttle (datashuttle.neuroinformatics…), to automate the creation, validation and transfer of NeuroBlueprint projects

🧠Big news, little brain 🧠 I’m excited to share our preprint introducing our hierarchical cerebellar atlas!🎉 We fused many fMRI datasets into a comprehensive map of the cerebellum - and created a new resource for localizing and interpreting data. 🧵1/7 doi.org/10.1101/2023.09.14.5…

Consider joining NARF which has been working relentlessly for decades to make the biomedical sector a better place. Still so much to do!

NARF recently held a special general meeting to modify our constitution. It was unanimous! We now represent #biomedical research current and past (within last 10 years) fellows, not just #NHMRC fellows. Let us know what you think we should focus on in 2023 and beyond. Thx all

What electronic lab notebook systems do you use in your lab, if any? Would you recommend it? We are looking for examples of web-based platforms which are highly usable and adapted to the research in neurophysiology and systems neuroscience labs?

I've been in my #altac role for almost three years. First as a research scientist, and now as a content marketer. It's possible to still do education work and not be a professor. Why did I chose this path? Financially I didn't really have much of a choice. A🧵
