I was recently asked to do a short in-person workshop for Robot Heart this Friday at 4:30pm. If you are interested come and join us. -I’ll put the invite on the next post.
‼️Job alert! ‼️ multiple #postdoc positions open in my lab @Princeton. Interested in single cell #genomics & brain development? #studyBRAIN projects, cell type tools for 🐒🧠, weird evolutionary phenomena (chimeric microglia??) Check us out krienenlab.org & pls RT!
@kathryndevaney Her work has found brain activity differences that both have implications for brain health as well as could serve as a biomarker for meditation experience #CNS2024 @kathryndevaney
Really excited to be a part of, as far as I know, the first ever panel about meditation at @CNSmtg! And yes, if you're wondering, I do meditate before all of my talks.
I’ve been writing a lot of sci-fi set in posthuman worlds lately, and thinking about new types of conflict that might open up. Some ideas in comic form (with explanations and examples below):
"I may need to get these forms in a better format than a .jpg" -things nonprofit lawyers say
Kahneman has passed. I join many, many others who owe a great deal to his work. Thank you for changing how we think about how we think.
** Such ** great fun talking with @robertwrighter on @NonzeroPods! We discuss how to start or re-start a meditation practice, Bob's coffee + meditation hack, how practice can orient us to AI, a little bit about the neuroscience of enlightenment, and more open.spotify.com/episode/7l2Uz3…
Meditation Tips for Beginners (and Non-Beginners) | Neuroscientist @kathryndevaney of @BerkeleyAlembic and @robertwrighter discuss meditative best practices, how meditation aids cognitive empathy, whether mindfulness can save us from AI doom, and more. youtu.be/kEPQtZN9h18?fe…
Looking forward to dropping into @thesfcommons tonight to discuss neuroscience, meditation, and tech! Details & registration: lu.ma/2dcm05zd
If you find yourself trying to believe something, or trying stop believing something, you’ve taken a very wrong turn somewhere. Relax, allow yourself to notice whatever it is you believe, and try to understand what you anticipate observing in the world instead.
I've had fun collecting data before, but this week was next level. Thanks to @nicberries for helping make it all happen, and to all the meditators who came thru Alembic Labs this week - stay tuned for results!
I spent some time at Imperial during my postdoc - it's a fantastic place to work, with a very dedicated community of scientists in one of the best locations on earth. This is a dream job for someone detail oriented who wants to support psychedelic research

I'm getting a new experiement running, and I'd love to talk with someone who's a real expert at EEG study design - I'm still wrapping my K-Space wandering, voxel-clustering, fMRI-brain around what to do with all these wiggly lines. If this is you, let's chat!
if anyone attended the @trampolinehall event I spoke at last week and met a Kaiser doc in the audience, please LMK her name. I was supposed to follow up and forgot to write it down...
This went incredibly well It reinforced my opinion that @mishaglouberman is a communication wizard, who you should talk to if there are people issues in you/your organization/team — he made ~200 people he's never met feel like participants in a hilarious collective enterprise
