New study: "We find that scientists are overwhelmingly (95%) failing to publish their #code and that there has been no significant improvement over time, but we also find evidence that code sharing can considerably improve citations, particularly when combined with #OpenAccess publication."

Good ol' "garbage in/garbage out"

'A key aspect of the aforementioned modeling approaches is that the accuracy of a model's translation to in vivo biology relies on the underlying data used as input in the model.'

"I am honored to be a banned book whenever it happens, because I look at the history of books that have been banned; the history of who bans them. I will never be on the side of the people who ban the books. I'm on the other side. I will always be on the side of the libraries."

“Thousands of scientists are cutting back on Twitter, seeding angst & uncertainty.”

That survey with only a 5% response rate went viral & got me wondering about other evidence & how the #ScienceTwitter #MastodonMigration was panning out.

So I updated my study tracker & wrote a new post @PLOS : https://absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2023/08/20/how-is-science-twitters-mastodon-migration-panning-out/

tl;dr There's been a big recent surge here; the future of #ScienceMastodon looks bright; ScienceX is materially diminished tho the network is still there.

'In different ways, political philosophers, economists and advertising executives have pointed out how our economic system capitalizes on the insecurities it produces, which it then prods and perpetuates, making us all insecure by design. Only by reckoning with how deep manufactured insecurity runs will it become possible to envision something different.'

In contrast to NHP economic #decisionmaking where task variables are represented in OFC goods space, this finding suggests rodent OFC has a role in action space. In line with what our lab also finds using different task and methods 🐀 #neuroscience https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-023-01409-1
