Can we reconstruct images from brain activity? The Yuki Kamitani lab argues that recent work uses a non-diverse dataset, and with appropriate controls, performance breaks down completely. This has important implications for what we can learn from such datasets.

Borrowing the idea of ‘bug bounties’ from the technology industry could provide a systematic way to detect and correct the errors that litter the scientific literature, says Malte Elson go.nature.com/4dIi1Nv

The fact that it’s a child is completely irrelevant. They should be treated the same as if they were the President of Stanford, and immediately named CEO of a billion dollar startup.

We recently published a multivariable prediction model to aid in the decision to obtain a bone marrow sample in MGUS acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M2… . Now I seek critique of my paper & methods by experts in prediction modelling on Frank Harrell's datamethods

Good to be in Washington for tomorrow’s NINDS event on publication bias. We’re gonna set the world right.

In 2020, James Diao and I began studying race adjustment in lung-function equations. With amazing coauthors, today we published the past years of work in NEJM, estimating the many clinical, financial, and occupational implications. #ATS2024

A registered report published in Science Advances following recommendation by PCI Registered Reports (@[email protected]) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Very interesting to see Registered Reports discussed in this domain.

(I still don't completely understand why scholars aren't switching their confirmatory quantitative research to Registered Reports, and/or PCIRR)

Neuromatch Academy teaches thousands of students about neuroscience, deep learning, climate. We uniquely have export permit, ~1000 applicants per year from embargoed countries, e.g., Iran. We can not accept money, making us somewhat unsustainable and may force us to eventually

Hard - if not impossible - to find examples of bespoke models (cc Richard McElreath 🦔) in medical research

But here is an example by Keith Goldfeld et al

Amazing work on using simulation + prior predictive check + bias analysis to adjust priors choice!!

We have a new potential contender for biggest research fraud in history.

I always presumed we might. I just didn't know when.

Delighted to see that both GRIM and SPRITE were used.

*Markedly* less delighted when considering the effect on women's health.

Thanks to Society for Neuroscience (SfN) for the chance to participate in this webinar on #registeredreports and replicability, and my co-panelists Christophe Bernard (@eNeuroEiC) and Jose Abisambra (Co-EiC of Brain Research). Both eNeuro and Brain Research offer RRs! Watch: neuronline.sfn.org/scientific-res…

If grants/pubs remain the currency of science, #registeredreports are the solution. Publishing null results in repositories is great, but if journals won’t, it won’t help careers. RRs solve both problems and ⁦PCI Registered Reports (@[email protected])⁩ are leading the way. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Another stellar presentation came from Annie Ly Annie Ly hailing from Boulder Colorado and the Ford Lab, who helped establish a code of conduct at her institution as well as organizing workshops on microaggressions for the Center of Inclusion and Social Change shared her thesis

Starting in an Hour! ⏰

Discuss replicability issues in science and how #RegisteredReports can support rigorous & reproducible research with Randall Ellis, PhD, (Randy Ellis), Christophe Bernard, PhD, #eNeuro Editor-in-Chief (@eNeuroEiC), and Jose Abisambra, PhD,

Don't forget to register for this free webinar on #RegisteredReports supporting reproducible research

Great to see this out at last. Please share widely!

Registered reports can fix this by realigning academic incentives. To learn more about #registeredreports , register to hear our conversation about them hosted by Society for Neuroscience (SfN) on Wednesday at noon ET: neuronline.sfn.org/scientific-res…
