Hi all- after a lot of thought, I can't in good conscience keep using this platform. You can find me at See you all there!

@jakefwatson @JustinKOHare Nice quantitative discussion- as you say, these are not really "new" concerns. Doing comparative mini frequency analysis at different holding Vm or using explicit "high threshold" cutoffs to compare apples:apples is a standard in the best studies.

@drugmonkeyblog Surprisingly, the recent Pew Foundation calculator put $400k for a family of 4 in CT as firmly middle class!

@nico_neurophys @DrNancyPadilla Multiple freeze-thaw is bad for AAV. We dilute in cold PBS on arrival or after production to preferred concentration, then aliquot and freeze.

@FelixFelxfel @mjhigley I remember in early ages 2012-2015 when getting AAVs at 10^8 was sufficient. Everything changed when people wanted to inject high volume to not troubleshoot coordinates

@QianQuanSun1 @NIMHgov Very interesting work, though I point out similar earlier work in mouse V1.

@KordingLab @pwlot to whom? i think the original post was meant as a "look, the brain is braining, isn't that cool", not a specific take on which patterns of activity in which cells mediate decisions. we need more people to be awed by our ability to watch stuff happen in vivo.

@KordingLab @pwlot i mean, "animal makes decision" and "animal's brain makes decision" are equivalent statements.

@KordingLab @pwlot putting aside whether decisions are "made" and not simply deterministic consequences of prior events, are you arguing the brain isn't the thing doing it?
