Thrilled to have our paper with @markcnewry out in BRAIN. academic.oup.com/brain/advan… We show that CSF1R inhibition to deplete proliferating microglia in APP/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimer's actually increases hyper excitability in hippocampal circuits doi.org/10.1093/brain/awag14…
Looking at my own kids' school work I do not think digital learning is better than textbooks and copybooks. Quite the opposite. It is all so fragmented and non-linear that I can't see how it benefits students.
A beautifully written case for why physical textbooks are so much better for learning than the online distractions that have replaced them.

reading this Uta Frith interview in TES. It's so important on the expansion of autism diagnoses to include almost anyone, many of whom would be better described as having social anxiety. This bit in particular on masking seems really insightful tes.com/magazine/teaching-le…

Universities are meant to model openness and critical thinking. Yet many academics remain silent about injustice within their own institutions. This new article from ecrLife examines two entrenched mechanisms that may be helping sustain that culture.

We wrote this review in which we attempt to bring together neuromonitoring, risk factor, biomarker and experimental studies supporting a brain energy disruption account of #delirium @Age_and_Ageing doi: 10.1093/ageing/afag024. With @jgordonboyd & Laidlaw Scholar Meher Sabharwal
This is the best description I have seen so far on why AI-generated music won't eclipse human music. Nick Cave on AI, Awe, and the Splendor of Our Human Limitations themarginalian.org/2019/01/2… via @mariapopova

Excited to be in Cairns for Australian delirium Association conference but, my God, quite the journey! Straight to bed.
Good God. Please make it stop. Literally revising works of art to bring them into line with our modern sensibilities. Did we even agree what those sensibilities are? The rolling stones and holy bible better watch out.

This is good to see. TDs unashamedly refuse to answer questions from one press outlet so the other journalists refuse to ask them any further questions and close the press conference down. Proper order.
"I THINK WE'RE DONE": Today journalists in the Leinster House press pool slammed People Before Profit TDs Ruth Coppinger and Paul Murphy for refusing to take a question from Gript's @Ben_Scallan, and ended the press event early in protest:

Timely opinion piece on academic freedom/compelled speech since we are all also talking about Trump targetting research programmes, Irish and other campus protests etc.
Our article about the erosion of academic freedom in Ireland as a result of mandatory participation in a UK-run ‘equalities’ charter is on page 9 of the @IrishTimes print edition today @johnarmstrong5
Thanks to education editor @carlobrien
Was actually listening to the new @throwingmuses album when this @kristinhersh interview dropped in my timeline. #midnightconcessions is a great record. Check out Drugstore drastic for an auspicious arrival youtu.be/CcYG5_Np3qc
“My songs are my soundtrack. My life pictures are easier to take when they’re set to music.”
