The emphasis is often on problem-solving and rarely on not-creating-the-problem-in-the-first-place. We then sell (mostly expensive) solutions for the problems we created. And I am amazed that as a society we have no problem with this entire process!

4. Invited expert reviewers should be compensated for their time (eg, #IITs do this for PhD theses review, as I remember from my time there). So academic publishing process can & must change. Research is already tough, so let’s simplify the publishing process at least🤷‍♀️👩‍🔬

3. So we are paying $$$ to publishers for what?! This has to end- While, #arXiv is a great platform for publishing (possibly unbiased work), grant agencies or institute where the research was completed should link/put the work on public servers & invite periodic expert reviews.

Wow!! In absolute awe of Prof. @LucinaUddin for taking this bold & much needed step! ❤️💪 The current money-minting academic publishing model is bad for science & a nightmare for most scientists. 1/4

@PTVassiliadis @DuqueLab Pleasure collaborating with you and Gerard on this motor skill learning study… 🤗🥰

Happy to see this part of my PhD @DuqueLab finally posted in bioRxiv with the help of my co-first author @GoldyYadv 😎 Using TMS (MEP, SICI, UDP), we explored motor learning-related plasticity when people train for reward Check it out!

@GDerosiere @PTVassiliadis @UPHUMMEL_EPFL @DuqueLab

More on reward, motor cortex, and motor learning! Here is our latest article on BioRxiv, exploring how extrinsic rewards impact motor plasticity during skill learning: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A collaboration with @GoldyYadv, @PTVassiliadis, @UPHUMMEL_EPFL and @DuqueLab!

On the centenary of the first human #EEG recording, @faisalmushtaq et al. ask more than 500 experts to reflect on the impact of this discovery and potential of its application in science and society over the next 100 years. nature.com/articles/s4156…

@breath_Guy Thank you @breath_Guy 😊

It was a pleasure to discuss with André Duqum recent advances in the sciences of perception, evolution, and consciousness. How do recent discoveries relate to spirituality and the perennial philosophy? Why pursue scientific inquiry rather than dogmatism? youtube.com/watch?v=ffgzkH…

@SpencrGreenberg @jAdityaSingh6 we should have done a study like this as independent project in our phd! Too interesting for the Indian market! Just that we need to trust that people are enough self-aware to report their true personality traits :)

Does astrology work? We tested the ability of 152 astrologers to see if they could demonstrate genuine astrological skill. Here is how the study was designed and what we found (including a result that really surprised me): 🧵

A theory of biological relativity: no privileged level of causation "Biological relativity can be seen as an extension of the relativity principle by avoiding the assumption that there is a privileged scale at which biological functions are determined."

"The yearning for a utopia is basically the yearning for harmony in the individual and in the society. The harmony has never existed: there has always been chaos. Society has been divided into different cultures, different religions, different nations - and all based on superstitions. None of the divisions are valid. But these divisions show that man is divided within himself. These are the projections of his own inner conflict. He is not one within, that's why he could not create one society, one humanity, outside. "The cause is not outside. The outside is only the reflection of the inner man. Nobody has paid much attention to the individual. And that is the root cause of all the problems. "But because the individual seems to be so small, and the society seems so big, people think that we can change society and then the individuals will change. This is not going to be so because 'society' is only a word; there are only individuals, there is no society. The society has no soul; you cannot change anything in it. You can change only the individual, howsoever small he appears. And once you know the science of how to change the individual it is applicable to all the individuals everywhere. "My feeling is that one day we are going to attain a society which will be harmonious, which will be far better than all the ideas that utopians have been producing for thousands of years."

I've been wanting to say this for a long time. Thank you!

Every day I am in awe of international students. Doing a PhD in your native language and home country is hard. Doing it in a non-native language, in a different country and different culture is so much harder. You are not stupid. You are legends.
