The neuroscience program at Dominican University is looking for an adjunct instructor to teach Intro to Neuro in the fall of 2022 (in person; we're in River Forest, IL).
Pay is crud. To help make up for that, we provide not only the whole course but meaningful mentorship in being a PUI faculty member.

statpsych for Estimation in R
One reason p values remain so popular is that it is so easy to produce them -- there is a whole ecosystem of software that will help you churn out endless hypotheses tests, even if the researcher doesn't actually have any clear hypotheses to test.
Rather than p all over your papers, you might be persuaded to report and interpret effect sizes along with measures of uncert

"Better Inference in Neuroscience: Test Less, Estimate More" is my new paper out in the JNeuro making the case to:
a) use hypothesis testing better, to actually test the *researcher's* hypothesis, and
b) to use estimation for the many, many situations in which a researcher is not yet ready to conduct a strong hypothesis test

If anyone had any resources they use for helping people make a Code of Conduct or group working agreement, and don’t mind sharing, I would be really interested in seeing what others do. Particularly if aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate project groups where people might not have much prior interaction with each other or experience working in groups.
