I usually don’t write political posts on Twitter, but I wanted to clarify a few things about the situation in Israel.

An impressive new work by the great Seth Koslov on medial parietal cortex subdivisions!
Seth Koslov@skoslov
Ever notice medial parietal cortex in neuroimaging studies of episodic memory and wonder what's going on there? In our preprint (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…) we identify interleaving subregions responsive to memory-decisions vs semantic content during recognition within individuals.

One of the best things on Twitter just started again - "live tweets" from World War II, following the war in real time (from September 1, 1939). Highly recommended. twitter.com/RealTimeWWII

Come join us in Philly! @epstein_lab @Penn has postdoc openings on NIH-funded projects that use advanced fMRI methods to investigate the neural basis of cognitive maps (broadly defined), spatial navigation, and spatial/nonspatial memory in humans. Collaboration with @NoraNewcombe

Here's some takeaways including new tidbits (good & bad!) since the preprint & even after the paper was accepted.
Large sample sizes are helpful for individual-level prediction. We have known that for quite some time, but the recent...

1/5 Our new preprint doi.org/10.1101/2020.0… uses meta-learning to boost functional connectivity based prediction of *NEW* phenotypes in small samples. We achieve 100%-400% improvements in many scenarios! @hetong93 @AvramHolmes @anlijuncn @danilobzdok @AvramHolmes @INM7_ISN

New preprint @PsyArXiv from @LinChujun & me! "Fooled by beautiful #data: #Visualization aesthetics bias trust in science, news, and social media." Across 4 studies, we show that people (mis)place more trust in more beautiful graphs. Paper: psyarxiv.com/dnr9s/ Explainer 🧵👇

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: You must cross-validate sorted plots!! E.g. peak-latency sorted colormaps of neural activity. Otherwise you WILL find "sequences" out of random noise. Don't believe me? A proof in four lines. Anyone feel like you have seen the last panel before?
