Good night, #MedMastodon! Looking forward to finding more friends tomorrow.

For those wanting to learn to code. I wrote about why I learned in my newsletter here. zainsyed.substack.com/p/why-i-

I also include some resources that really helped me.

For me, the only reason I was on Twitter was #MedTwitter. So I googled "Med Mastodon" and found my server/people/instance 😀 #MedMastodon

Lastly, this list is a part of a broader effort to organize academics (and fans) spanning Mastodon:

Hey #neuroscience #neurotech #neurodon

I'm very excited about a truly distributed community for #neuroscience.

Let's make it easier for new folks (and #twitterexodus #twittermigration) folks to plug into the #neurodon community!

Please add your Mastodon information to this importable community list: forms.gle/sWZyxMGsNefy3kzr5

Mastodon is really having a moment in mainstream news coverage. CNN, BBC, TIME, etc.

The influx of users will continue at an alarming rate. Remember to be welcoming, and kind, and positive, and helpful.

This isn't just an opportunity to improve the idea of social media, it's an opportunity to shine a wonderful light on #opensource.

Trying things out. I will be posting mainly #neuroscience. So here is a question. What is the most important thing we need to be able to do to understand the principles on which brains work?

Hello, i'm a Professor of #Social #Neuroscience at UCL, studying how face-to-face interaction works in adults and (occasionally) children with and without #autism. I use mocap and #fnirs and virtual reality and wearables to understand #cognitive mechanisms.

After switching instances I will introduce myself again:

#Introduction

I am a #Neuroscience researcher at UC Berkeley investigating how the human brain can imagine sequences of musical sounds, using #EEG #MEG and #iEEG

I am also interested in reinforcement learning and how humans process reward.

Proudly #Colombian. #BikeTooter Love #salsa #dancing.

Howdy!

Stoked about Mastodon - absolutely LOVE the lack of ads, looking forward to an active feed with hopefully less doomscrolling here! #science #neuroscience #space #xenarthrans #spaceagepolymer

#Introduction 🧠

Hi folks! I’m a cognitive neuroscientist studying the brain networks involved in skilled action production. I use #fMRI, #DTI, #LesionSymptomMapping, and #ECoG.

I also enjoy talking about music, sports, running, and travel. Looking to make connections and build a community here.

Researchers in have been doing animal studies in virtual reality for more than two decades. But to someone from another field, it still seems amazing, especially when the equipment is tiny, for a participant the size of a fly.

Hello! #introduction

I'm a computational neuroscientist, currently a postdoc at Princeton, but about to start my own group at #bostonuniversity. I build neural networks, trying to keep them real with biology, and analyze neural population dynamics using #machinelearning.

Sometimes, I do some #sciencewriting about other peoples science. I also love #julialanguage, and try to contribute to that effort.

I think the #neurosciencemigration is freaking awesome. Fight the man!

Hey new mastodoners

Put up a pic and fill out your bio with stuff so folks know who you are

I tend to be more likely to follow folks if I can get an idea of who they are when I open their profile
