@UpdatesChennai If TN govt is clever, they can simply ask IndiGo to build a world class hub for themselves as the second airport in Chennai. Give them full control, including the location; no interference from govt.

Chennai Airport is further destined to fall & doom if this rule is passed which allows Pvt airport operators to own airlines. Let's all fly via neighbouring state airports as our govt doesn't care about aviation...😇👍

Govt weighs rule change to allow airport operators own airlines amid IndiGo-Air India dominance. Welcome to #AAI airlines operating from #Chennai. Ticket prices and connectivity depends on who wins kolam and fancy dress competition. 🙃🙏 share.google/blMXEUoUlYaae8…

People who know me know I love aviation. And not often one comes across a niche game like @airlinesim
that is very realistic. I have been hosting a private server, Fokker, since 2019. We restarted recently, follow/join us here: aero264.github.io/fokker-statist…

Just watched The Sheep Detectives movie. So unexpectedly poignant. Ignorance is bliss, but can we ever truly forget? We can tire ourselves trying though.

@AravindKumar264 Quite affordable
DBS for parkinsonism can be done for as low as 10-15 lakhs
High volume places have better outcomes

India is a weird country
People with essential tremor will take propranolol 40 mg/day for years
Propranolol takes a minimum of 160 mg/day for any effect
Any dose below that is basically a placebo
English
@zebrahoofbeat How affordable is DBS in India, doctor? And what is the uptake?
English
@s8mb The diagnoses are largely true: there's an implicit recognition of supply shortage but they think the solution is state capture of markets. Market participation is well and truly low in the UK on so many fronts that the instinctive response to any problem is state intervention.

As a mechanical engineer, I was often told that the greatest invention of mankind is a wheel. But looks like bacteria developed wheels and gears millions of years ago! Really cool!
Natalie Wolchover@nattyover
Bacteria move around using a molecular machine called the flagellar motor that rotates faster than the flywheel of a race car engine and switches directions in an instant. After 50 yrs, scientists have finally figured out how it works. “My lifelong quest is now fulfilled.” Link⤵️

Excited to share our new paper in @Nature_NPJ Systems Biology and Applications: using a parsimonious 2D neural mass model, we explain why first-line treatments fail in a subset of status epilepticus cases and how second-line interventions succeed.

And it definitely doesn't help that the zero key is situated directly above the letter O in the keyboard.

I used to get annoyed at typos in data annotations when analysing data. But now conducting a clinical study first hand myself shows how many things demand attention at the same time and how easy it is to judge typos from the comfort of a desk.

Across dysfunctions, the model captures a sharp rise in inhibitory activity relative to excitation just before seizure onset, followed by a rapid excitatory surge at onset. This mirrors physiological observations and emerges naturally from dynamics rather than being prescribed.

Updated my personal website after a long break, with a refreshed layout and a clearer overview of my current research direction. Have a look for updates on my UK DRI Pilot Award and epilepsy research.

Not much flying done this year but that's set to change. Time for the annual ritual of LHR-MAA with British Airways.

@apd_flynn Hey Andrew, great work! Regarding NCTs Vs BNCTs, one could view NCTs as BNCTs that are far away from the bifurcation point, right? Have you found any evidence from the data that may indicate whether the brain is always bistable?
English
When applied to voltage recordings from epileptic rodents, our framework showed that most seizures are noise-induced.
This aligns with recent experiments, challenges the popular opinion that seizures are bifurcation-induced, and could inform future seizure therapies.
English
Extremely excited to share a preprint of my postdoctoral research with Sebastian Wieczorek and many fantastic collaborators!
We model seizure onset as different types of critical transition and present a new framework to classify seizure onset in voltage recordings accordingly.
