New preprint 🎉

Enhancing Precision in Human Neuroscience https://psyarxiv.com/m8c4k/

In this article we introduce measurement precision and its importance for well-powered studies in human neuroscience. We cover determinants for precision in a range of neuroscientific methods (MRI, M/EEG, EMG, ECG, EDA, Eye-Tracking, Endocrinology, and Genetics).

Was really fun being a part of this project, fantastic team effort.

Nice that #privacy in #schools is being fixed. #BigTech just has to wait until the school goes out before the great data robbery can continue. Now even more effective, because every pupil and student was taught these services are OK, ignorant of any true privacy and #sovereignty respecting service.

If we really want to fix this problem, we should build our school IT based on decentralised #FOSS solutions.
