A little #FollowFriday post with some recommendations of folks who I enjoy seeing posts from!
@jonny - #neuroscience with lefty politics flair.
@HeavenlyPossum - #anarchist/ #communist history and #philosophy that always seems to cut to the heart of the matter.
@liaizon - #Fedi/ #FediMeta, open source hardware (#OSH) and general interesting shit.
@neuralreckoning - wacky ideas around #AcademicPublishing.
@chartgerink for #AcademicPublishing innovation and thoughtful social commentary.

"If you take it for granted that nobody can listen in on your innermost thoughts, I regret to inform you that your brain may not be private much longer. Luckily, the brain is lawyering up." Colorado passed legislation to prevent companies from selling your brainwaves. But is it enough to stop the likes of Meta and Apple?

Colorado brain data bill: How a new law will protect the privacy of our thoughts
What are neurorights? Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are building tech to read our minds. Lawyers are trying to protect our mental privacy from Silicon Valley through neurorights.Sigal Samuel (Vox)
I'm happy to present the last paper from my thesis!
Lisa Li and I set out to build a model of fly walking which is based on 3D kinematics data, handles perturbations, and includes sensorimotor delays. (This was supervised by Bing Brunton and @tuthill )
We set up a new modeling framework, generated fly walking with kinematics matched to real data, a simple metric for quantifying similarity of trajectories, and found constraints on delays for robust walking!

Sensorimotor delays constrain robust locomotion in a 3D kinematic model of fly walking
Walking animals must maintain stability in the presence of external perturbations, despite significant temporal delays in neural signaling and muscle actuation.bioRxiv
An open platform for visual stimulation of insects
To study how the nervous system processes visual information, experimenters must record neural activity while delivering visual stimuli in a controlled fashion.doi.org

eNeuro is looking for an editor in chief.
https://www.sfn.org/publications/eneuro/eNeuro-Editor-in-Chief-Search
Made me ask: what is the job of an editor in chief, and what kind of qualifications should an applicant have? And what kind of job is it – full time job, or part time? Paid or not? A practising scientist or a dedicated specialist? The ad doesn't specify much beyond the obvious.
