I just heard that I have been selected to attend the 64th Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting in Physiology/Medicine. This annual meeting, which takes place in the South of Germany this summer, brings together Nobel Laureates and around 600 young researchers from 80 countries for a week of discussions, lectures and masterclasses. Topics such as the future of research in physiology, global health and medical care in developing countries will be discussed. Extra cool is that this year is the first time that there are more female than male young scientists invited to the meeting. I am very excited to have been selected for this unique meeting!

So as a re-start to my new blog, here are some personal considerations and bits of computer goodness I tend to use.Continue reading “Software for (neuro)science”
Cognitive science movies
Between all the good science, we all need a night off every now and then. Check out Indiana University’s cognitive science movie index for a great selection of movies about neuroscience, artificial intelligence and and cognition. Benjamin Motz also wrote a review about the movie database in Current Biology.
