TIL that measles can infect and persist in the brain, and then (rarely) FIVE TO TEN YEARS LATER, kills you. There are no effective treatments. Vaccination against measles obviously prevents this 🧪 journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

"Funding cuts will surely reduce or even stop the progress we are now starting to make toward cures for Alzheimer's disease & related conditions. That is esp problematic bc our pop is aging more than ever before & these diseases will therefore become much more prevalent in the years to come.” 🧪🛟

I am also not thrilled at the possibility Trump and his senior officials are going to double-down on these tariffs because 1) they don't care about tanking the global economy, 2) they refuse to listen to actual economists, 3) they think negotiating anything is a sign of weakness

Important thread about how modern life obscures important things we rely on. When most people go the store, they see loaves of bread, but you don't understand everything that makes it possible. Eg, a stable climate with predictable temperatures and precipitation, weather forecasts, plant research.

Maybe I'm a bit of a curmudgeon and this might be an unpopular opinion, but I'd rather see threads, all posted on the same day, of the books (doesn't have to be 20) that changed you WITH an explanation within the 300 character limit about how and why. 💙📚🇳🇿

osf.io/preprints/ps... turns out, u can analyze meta-d' w/ just reaction times rather than confidence. loses some info & also a bit different. but maybe RT really isn't so metacognitive, so we might have to call it pseudo-meta-d' new preprint with Kiyo Miyoshi & Doby Rahnev 🧠📈
