Why (and how) we need to professionalize neuroscience
Moving away from the field’s do-it-yourself ethos and embracing professional technical expertise will make research more efficient.
Why (and how) we need to professionalize neuroscience
What are we talking about? Clarifying the fuzzy concept of representation in neuroscience and beyond
To foster discourse, scientists need to account for all the different ways they use the term “representation.”
Ruth Carper: Imaging the aging brain in autistic adults
Few studies have tracked how brain structure and function change across adulthood in people with autism. Carper and her colleagues are collecting data to fill this gap.
