Nature ha publicado una News feature donde indica que en una encuesta la mitad (46%) de los cientificos activos en Twitter han creado una cuenta en Mastodon en el último, por encima de Linkedin, Instagram, Threads y bluesky.

No pone cuantos se han quedado, pero diria que es buen momento para impulsar #MastodonScience

Thousands of scientists are cutting back on Twitter, seeding angst and uncertainty

AI changed my life to the better, its help is priceless, especially with regard to my studies.

AI helped me creating a learning plan out of a mass of complicated subjects in a jiffie, it explains high concepts and formulas to me and never gets impatient when I don't get it. It even helps me writing flashcards by "translating" incomprehensible passages of the lecture notes.

AI won't steal my job, it helps me to get a good one in the end.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/astronomers-see-a-star-eating-a-planet-for-first-time-ever #mastodonscience  multi-university team of researchers published a study on Wednesday in the journal Nature that described the first ever observation of a star swallowing a planet. The cosmic feast seems to have occurred in our very own Milky Way galaxy, roughly 12,000 lightyears away in the constellation Aquila. #NASA #Astronomy

Re: filtering for neuroscience #preprints/#papers, it could be done by a bot in the same way as I do it for #mechanobiology, see @mechanobio
Also, if you want to filter neuroscience papers among Drosophila ones, you can suggest your keywords for the @flypapers bot: check https://gitlab.com/jocelyn_etienne/keywords-for-flypapers-on-mastodon/-/blob/main/tag-drosophila.txt

@marcrr Thanks! We're on #mastodonscience but not very active yet.

A 44-year-old man from France started experiencing weakness in his leg, he went to the hospital. That's when doctors told him he was missing most of his brain. The man's skull was full of liquid, with just a thin layer of brain tissue left. #MastodonScience #Psychology #ClinicalResearch

These moons are all believed to hold oceans of liquid water, possibly more water than exists on Earth. #MastodonScience #spaceexploration #NASA

#MastodonScience : nearly 50% women scientists exposed to #sexual #harassment according to an international poll among (French-speaking, afai understand) #researchers

There's a notable difference of about 25 percentage points between the answers of male and female respondents on the prevalence of #sexism and sexual harassment in research.

Half of the cohort was based in #France

Any scientists working on how to disrupt this BIG problem? #ScienceMastodon #MastodonScience ???

Hi #MastodonScience community!

I'm curious about tracking single cell position and morphology with deep learning methods. Have any of you tried this before?

If so, what approach did you take and were you satisfied with the results?

I really should tag these 3 posts to #Lepidoptery #collecter #science #scientist #bugcollector #MastodonScience #ScienceMastodon about a famous man my brother and I used to visit in the late Sixties

The physics of Anthropogenic Global Warming explained by @skdh

Most people don't really understand climate science in detail, which gives an easy opening for deniers to sow doubt

#MastodonSports #mastodontech #mastodonscience While bringing this up post a potential tragic outcome of a player requiring life saving treatment tonight, indulge a couple thoughts? Professional football is a multibillion yearly PROFIT entertainment industry. What owners and NFL League exec’s have done to the NFLPA (union) is sickening. Billions made on the backs of the top .0002 percent of athletes. Please, sport, technology and science collab better to serve the health of these athletes.

Application deadline (2nd Jan 2023) fast approaching!
The International Max Planck Research School for Language Sciences in Nijmegen is offering two fully-funded 4-year #PhD fellowships for innovative cutting-edge research projects, spanning a range of disciplines from #genetics & #neuroscience to #psychology & #linguistics.

#introduction

Hi,

I am a #physicist and #neuroscientist who tries to bring both fields together in #neuroimaging.

I direct the Dept of Neurophysics at the #MPI for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (https://www.cbs.mpg.de/en). Our main tools are #MRI, #histology and #biophysical #modeling for in-vivo histology (#hMRI) and ultra-high resolution #fMRI.

Excited to see #MastodonScience growing so quickly 😀

This is my personal account and my posts/toots are just my personal views.

Do you find preprint bots useful?

Then consider supporting not me (my uni pays the little costs!), but the instance bringing them to you: botsin.space has patreon https://www.patreon.com/muffinista and paypal https://www.paypal.me/muffinista accounts

Thanks to them! #MastodonScience
