@foundmyfitness @Hyannis321 @foundmyfitness You could consider being more explicit that you recap an associational study result, and being more conservative in your takeaways which many are likely to take (especially the last bit of last paragraph) as a causal statement. Thank you for considering!

@canna_brain @BarneysRubble0 @trikomes @MindingtheBrain I have not checked out these podcast (yet) - thanks! To clarify, is your point about scientists being able to discuss their own science in detail, or discuss science in a somehow other way than AH does?

@canna_brain @BarneysRubble0 So, what would be better examples of conveying neuroscience research to general public at (comparable) scale? Please provide 1-3 examples of such individuals/entities. Thank you.

@jkpritch UMAP is a non-linear dimension reduction method, with 2 parameters allowing one to obtain results that look wildly different depending on those params choice (AFAIK, no clear guidance out there on making the choice...) In what context may we want to use it in scientific papers?

@drg1985 What is "the" threshold you have in mind while stating those using 20 ng/mL are wrong (and what is the basis of it)?
