Each of the large publishers has their own journal suggester.

Paste your abstract in the white rectangular box.

Then click on "Reveal Suggested Journals" at the bottom of your screen.

It will give you a list of suggested journals with the most relevant ones on top.
Thanks to @MustaqBilalPhD on the bird app for the original idea.

Here are a few suggester URLs:

'At the time, Argentina’s regime, the bloodiest in modern South American history, was rounding up thousands of real and presumed leftists and putting them in torture camps or killing them outright in what came to called the “dirty war.” The dictatorship lasted seven years, during which at least 8,960 people disappeared, according to official estimates. Some human rights groups put the figure at 30,000.'

"There is a mass exodus underway from Twitter and Facebook. After decades of eye-popping growth, these social media sites are contracting at an alarming rate."

After hearing some feedback,a nd wanting to be fair in my representation, I have change the title of the article. It is now:

# Eugen Rochko, CEO of Mastodon, Caves to Nazi's Agenda

I think we can all agree thats a more faithful title.

Pew Research study of "BitChute, Gab, Gettr, Parler, Rumble, Telegram and Truth Social:"

"When asked for the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about alternative social media sites, people in this [nonuser] category commonly cite inaccuracy and misinformation, political bias and the political right, and extremism and fringe ideas."

📣This afternoon, the Lords will consider whether the police should be given new powers to stop & search protesters, even without suspicion.

👮‍♂️These draconian powers would take us another step closer to becoming a police state.

@claire_h Create lists by finding posters on subjects, e.g News. (BBC, CNN, Bylines etc.) then folloew them and add them to a list you create, so after a while, if you click on the list, you will see their posts in real time as they are posted.

I posted an #introduction but then moved to fediscience.org, so let me introduce myself again.

I'm a #computational neuroscientist at Boston University. I make circuit models of cognitive-emotional interaction in the #limbic system. I shifted to #Julia from Matlab recently (and I love it!).

On the birdsite I tend to post a mix of neuroscience, philosophy, history, math, literature and... not-quite-serious musings.

I'm interested in public scientific communication and education too.

I was exposed to the importance of interaction between top-down and bottom-up neural/cognitive processes early on (I did my PhD in the department Steve Grossberg started), so I am slightly amused and baffled by the hype surrounding #PredictiveProcessing and/or #ActiveInference.

It suggests that David Hume's idea that all knowledge comes from the outside world has had way too long a half-life in biology.

#Neuroscience #Philosophy

Since I've migrated to zirk.us, here's an #introduction. I'm Chris Levesque, a historian of the #VietnamWar with interests in connections between gender, religion, and war. In my day job, I'm the Head of the Professional Studies Library and subject specialist librarian for Education, Criminal Justice, and Social Work at UWF. My second hat here is as Instruction and information Literacy Coordinator.
