#introduction
Hello! I work on computer vision as it applies to medical imaging. I'm especially interested in neuro imaging.

I fill my free time with soccer and soccer data and I maintain a #python package, ScrapeFC, https://github.com/oseymour/ScraperFC.

I'm glad to be here and looking forward to meeting everybody!

I think I’m supposed to toot an #introduction. I’m Senior Research Fellow in computational geoscience at the Department of Earth Sciences in the University of Oxford. My research interests are mostly around Earth’s core and mantle at scales from atoms to planets.

This, from PNAS reviewing instructions, is actually pretty good:

"The purpose of peer review is not to demonstrate proficiency in identifying flaws."

I just received the kindest and most uplifting email from a colleague today. This career includes so much criticism and competition, it's so lovely when someone takes a moment to be supportive. I am deeply appreciative, and I need to do more of that myself for my colleagues.

#introduction

I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Laboratory of Sensorimotor Research (LSR), at the National Institutes of Health, working with Dr. Hendrikje Nienborg. I study the neural and computational mechanisms underlying perceptual decisions. I did my PhD with Prof. Tobias Donner in Hamburg, on choice-induced biases in perceptual decision-making. I employ methods like psychophysics, computational modeling, Neuroimaging (fMRI, MEG), & Neurophysiology with NHPs. #neuroscience #neurodon

Shamelessly hopping on the #introduction bandwagon: Hi, I'm Ian. I'm a science communicator and space writer working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California as a media relations specialist. Space robot PR, basically. In a past life, I was a solar physicist. I love science fiction in all its forms and have a passion for #astrophysics, #astronomy and all things #space. When not typing, you'll likely find me at the #gym, #running in the hills, or at the pub with a G&T.

I’m just a Gen Xer playing computer games in my basement. 🤟 I can’t believe this really worked. They really don’t build them like the used to. “Does it boot?” Yes, yes it does!

Since I mentioned Citizen Science, I would like to share a teaser of what we do on Flywire - proofreading AI-mapped models of neurons of Drosophila.

This is one of the more massive and beautiful cell types found in the fly brain, the CT1. Originating in the central brain and fanning out into the optic lobe, there are only two to be found in the fly brain - one for each hemisphere. It interfaces primarily with the medulla and lobula neuropils.

Hi everyone

Here's my #introduction... I'm a freelance writer / copy editor and amateur astronomer.

I've self-published some #astronomy guides, I write annual almanacs plus I write a bunch of astronomical content for others.

Happy to be here!

If you follow me, I'll follow back - even if it's not #followFriday 🙂

Hello Fosstodon! 👋

Time to give you a go and see if you're a viable alternative for data, visualisation and renewable energy related stuff.

I've attached a fun map of "live" wind turbine output that I've been working on recently as a little taster of what's to come ⚡️

Here's my Twitter if you're curious who I am: https://twitter.com/robhawkes

Okay time for an #introduction toot. I work with various web and automation backends at a university, and I've been an enthusiastic Linux user since about the year 2000. I'm a licensed ham radio operator and probably in a parallel universe I'm a pilot, because I love aviation and spaceflight. I run, lift, and ruck to stay fit.

I'm here to make connections with others in the FOSS world and trade notes on getting good work done in a slow moving and exceedingly cautious work environment.

Will #FollowBackFriday for #birds #birding #petbirds #birdcare and related content

With pet birds, my special interest is senior birds, rescue birds, peachfronted #conures

Note: Courtney was about 27 years old at the time I took this photo. He lived to be 29 years & 11 months, very old age for a small conure.

I am looking for people who can translate example codes in #R to an equivalent #Python, #Julia, or #MS #Excel code for my #educational #datascience #blog.

Excited to hop on the #Mastodon train! I look forward to connecting with others to discuss exciting #neuroscience research, #books, #scicomm, and any #science #podcast you are into at the moment.

My friend @kousu would love you! He has expressed interest in a lot of your specializations and interests

@DoctorRinny

Reinventing the wheel is an educational process and solidifies comprehension - or shows the lack of it. 😀 As a software guy I had gone through that a number of times - and sometimes failed!

@DoctorRinny Going to be a lot of fun having you here and looking forward to chatting sometime. Let me know if you have any questions too.
