INSTEAD OF WATCHING AN HOUR OF NETFLIX TONIGHT. This 1-hour Stanford lecture by Joel Peterson will teach you more about negotiation and getting what you want than most people learn in years. Bookmark it and give it an hour, no matter what.

🚨Anthropic just showed a 24-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude. Taught by the people who built it. Free. No registration. No paywall. I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes. Watch it and bookmark it now!

Our paper was just published in Nature Communications. Acute pain leaves reliable neural and facial signatures that can be tracked in natural contexts, thus promising objective, real-time pain monitoring. With @StanfordNsurg @DrCoreyKeller, @VivekBuchMD @josef_parvizi rdcu.be/elzjf

1/10 We need better ways to measure brain excitability in psychiatric disorders. The prefrontal cortex—key target for brain stimulation treatments—is particularly hard to assess. Our new studies tackle this with systematic mapping! bit.ly/4cjHknX &bit.ly/3PW8RCx

Glad to share some of my PhD work on using molecular classification to predict outcomes following surgery and radiotherapy in meningiomas published in @NatureMedicine. Grateful to @gelarehzadeh and @FarshadNassiri for helping guide this work and to our collaborators, reviewers, and funding agencies. nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

New TBS findings w/ iEEG by brilliant @YuhaoHuangMD! TBS → plasticity in minutes; DLPFC stim affects ACC; Connectivity predicts response! 🧠⚡️Opens new avenues for TBS optimization. More w/ TMS-iEEG, 3x TBS & units soon! Thanks @ACPaulk & team for collaborating 🙏 @StanfordBrain

Theta-burst stim (TBS) is used to treat depression, but how does it work? I dug into this question in my research yr with @DrCoreyKeller @ACPaulk, now out in @NatureComms, finding that TBS can produce plasticity-like changes in just minutes of stim. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
