A highlight of #SFN2022 was a masterful presentation by @analog_ashley on how we can integrate coding into the neuroscience curriculum.

Check out Ashley's recent paper on coding in the neuroscience curriculum in Neuron: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0896627321009946

And this preprint on what we *say* is important in neuro vs. what we train: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.09.455678v1

This is part of a "dueling perspectives" feature in the Journal of Neuroscience that was also presented at #SFN2022.

For a contrary opinion, see Brad Alger's take: https://www.jneurosci.org/content/42/45/8432

It was a real treat to work with Brad on this, as well as Marina Picciotto (JNEuro Editor), JNeuro staff, and Christophe Bernard (ENeuro Editor) -- hope they'll be on Mastadon soon.

RT @MIT_Picower
At an #SfN2022 press conference, @MIT Picower Fellow Takato Honda presented his research providing insights into the neural mechanisms of bipolar mania and sleep homeostasis https://picower.mit.edu/news/research-offers-insights-mechanisms-underlying-bipolar-mania-sleep-homeostasis #sleep #bipolardisorder #neuroscience

Neuroscientists need strong training in experimental design.

Another highlight of #SFN2022 was Mary Harrington's presentation on why and how to integrate experimental design into neuroscience training. Here slides (with sample syllabus) are here: https://osf.io/phzje

And her textbook, The Design of Experiments in Neuroscience, is a great starting point (https://tinyurl.com/expdesignneuro)

Mary's not on Mastodon (yet) -- but soon?

I was so nervous my mind went blank!

What math do neuroscientists need to know?

A highlight of #SFN2022 was Ella Batty's answer to this question. She showed off an incredible math for neuroscientists course she has developed at Harvard with open materials (https://ebatty.github.io/MathToolsforNeuroscience/) and discussed her amazing work with Neuromatch Academy (https://compneuro.neuromatch.io/)

Her SFN slides are here: https://osf.io/s94b2

#neuroscience So lucky to be working with this amazing group of scientists! Great job on your brilliant presentations at #sfn2022 Tatiana, Leila, Valentina, Sofia, Abdiel and Kim!!! See you all back in beautiful Miami 🏝️

Now that the excitement is over, I can finally share some reflections on #SfN22 #SfN2022! Thanks to @APANHearing@twitter.com for my research talk award, the @SfNtweets@twitter.com TPDA program for sponsoring my attendance, and the ECPA Program for allowing me to share some of my #SciPol work!

I once said that Twitter was like going to an academic conference, only much less expensive.

But what does that mean in practice for #ECR and #academicTwitter on Mastadon?

Here's a typical Twitter example. Two days ago I spotted a tweet from Brad Voytek (whose Twitter account is now deleted - please join us here, Brad!) about a poster at #SfN2022 featuring his PhD student Eena Kosik's work on neural #oscillations and #respiration. 🤩

I tweeted Brad - he tweet introduced me to Eena...

Brought this lovely back from #SanDiego #SFN2022 Happy Friday #AcademicTooting

#SfN2022 was a blast! We had a huge turnout to the lab's posters. Congrats to the team. What an awesome group.
