“Can psychology and cognitive sciences help in deescalating war and strengthening international collaboration?” asks Stanislas Dehaene in his acceptance speech for the 2024 Atkinson Prize in Psychological and Cognitive Sciences. ow.ly/HrmY50Rqca7#NAS161#NASaward
We are thrilled to announce the election of 120 members and 24 international members to the National Academy of Sciences in recognition of their distinguished and continued achievements in original research.
Congratulations to our new #NASmembers and welcome to the Academy!
Studies like this consistently find extremely high heritability of autism. Will this overwhelming evidence that it is a *genetic condition* receive any coverage? Of course not, because we're distracted by microbiome nonsense...

“As if an angel dropped down from the clouds”, William Blake's 1809 illustration to Henry IV by a certain William Shakespeare whose birthday is celebrated #onthisday in 1564 (also his death day in 1616).

The CORE LANG SYSTEM is implemented in the language network—a set of left-lateralized frontal+temporal areas that1️⃣engage during comprehension (👂👁️)+production (👄✍️🤌)
and2️⃣respond across task contexts. Basically:whenever you are doing language, these areas are hard at work!3/n
TLDR: The🧠language network is distinct from i)perceptual+premotor lang-relev. mechanisms (eg,speech perception+Broca’s articulation areas)—selective for ling inputs/outputs but insensitive to meaning; and ii)systems of thought—important for language use but not lang-specific.2/n
Science produces enormous value for our society.
The next government must make long-term decisions that ensure the UK has a science ecosystem in which fundamental research discoveries can provide the foundations to a more resilient and prosperous future. #ManifestoForScience
