Multi-dimensional social relationships shape social attention in monkeys

Multi-dimensional social relationships dynamically shape attentional biases toward in-group and out-group conspecifics in monkeys, with oxytocin modulating these interactions to reveal neurobiological links between social networks and visual information processing.

Good. Lets replace search with "AI" then! Totally logical if you ask me. Even more worth it when you know they're exponentially overtaking the airline industry in their carbon footprint.

AI Search Has a Citation Problem

We compared eight AI search engines. They’re all bad at citing news.

Know somebody who insists women’s soccer is boring?

When researchers disguised the gender of players in game highlight reels, viewers judged female players to be just as entertaining and skilled as male players.

We blurred the gender of soccer players and had people rate their performances − with surprising results

A common criticism of women’s sports is that female players aren’t as entertaining or skilled as their male counterparts. Two researchers decided to put this notion to the test.

For those of you attending #SfN23 for the first time, or if you’ve gone but never braved the NIH booth before, please come by and say hi! Especially if you’re a trainee or early career, don’t be discouraged by the mob of graybeards! POs are equally (if not more) excited to meet/talk with you!

As far as what to say/do, I’ll just repost this excellent advice from DrugMonkey (don’t know if he’s on here) on the topic:

I’ll be presenting a poster about #HippocampalReplay at #SFN2023!

The session: https://www.abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/10892/session/1900

The poster: Hippocampal replay does not reflect trajectory planning in a spatial planning task

The date: November 15, 2023, 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM

The location: Walter E. Washington Convention center, Washington D.C., WCC Halls A-C

Will you be there?!? There is also an online version!

André Fenton making the correct argument that manifolds dont spontaneously reorganize themselves, but their high dimensional structure facilitates effective remapping as a subset of long duration manifold. An argument that developmental linguistics ppl have been making for a long long time #SfN23
