Weird experience, watching relatives listen to Epiphany service today. All about reading Isaiah, Paul, and all about the waters of Jordan. So bitter, given the claim that it's all about God 'enlightening' people. In Palestine-Israel!! Religions contain much wisdom but a 'personal God' isn't just unfathomable, it is a crushingly misleading trope.

Dear neuroscientists, is there a beginner's guide of replicability of between-group dynamic causal modelling out there? Where do I start? Can anyone e.g. @dr_rick_adams help?

Adaptive expression of engrams by retroactive interference https://www.cell.com/cell-reports/fulltext/S2211-1247(23)01010-0
Highlights
âą Retroactive interference causes forgetting by the competition of two memory engrams
âą Forgotten engrams can be expressed or updated by reexposure to training cues
âą Artificial reactivation of engram cells rescues interference-induced forgetting
âą Interference is an active process that requires the activation of the suppressed engram
these findings indicate that retroactive interference modules engram expression in a manner that is both reversible and updatable. Inference may constitute a form of adaptive forgetting where, in everyday life, new perceptual and environmental inputs modulate the natural forgetting process.
Neuroscientists successfully test theory that forgetting is actually a form of learning
Neuroscientists today report the first results from experimental tests designed to explore the idea that "forgetting" might not be a bad thing, and that it may represent a form of learningâand outline results that support their core idea.

Emeritus Prof Christopher MayNow the #UnitedNations wants a bigger role on the reform go global #taxation, and in doing so is setting itself up against the #OECD which jealously guards this aspect of its international norm setting function...
That said, in many ways the UN looks like a more sensible place for global tax reform to be formulated, until you think about the difficulties the organisation has in driving forward other changes.
Nevertheless a UN Tax Programme (UNTP) might build on (much) earlier work by UNCTAD!
Now -> #British #Quakers (aka Religious Society of Friends) have pledged to stand by the #UK #Trans community.
The faith unites people through a belief in each personâs ability to experience the light within or âanswering that of God in everyoneâ.
âBelonging is being accepted as oneâs true self. Who are we to resist what God has created & continues to create in all their glory?"
Article also outlines the history of Quakers supporting #LGBTQ+ in other ways. đ đȘ

Jack RusherâCooperation occurs at all levels of life, from genomes, complex cells and multicellular organisms to societies and mutualisms between species. A major question for evolutionary biology is what these diverse systems have in common. Here, we review the full breadth of cooperative systems and find that they frequently rely on enforcement mechanisms that suppress selfish behaviour.â

Enforcement is central to the evolution of cooperation - Nature Ecology & Evolution
The authors of this Review discuss cooperative systems across all biological levels, including genomes, multicellular organisms and societies, and develop mathematical models to argue that enforcement is central to the evolution of cooperation.
