Come see my poster today at 5:45 pm where I use data from 500+ kids to see how specific and general assessments of early numeracy are related to each other #CDS2024

Handing over control of our policies to large, powerful (often international) donors is so dangerous. Especially when they can never be held accountable. Ask your donors -- would you put your own kids in the education systems that you build?.

Teared up listening to this story about the incredible Alexandra Elbakyan and SciHub. Every scientific article I read between 2012-2020 (i.e before moving to a big American university) has been on SciHub. Any desire I have to do any science has been because of SciHub.
This is the story of one woman’s battle against a global network of academic journals that underlie published scientific research. Listen to the Library of Alexandra here:

Amazing, and extremely needed compilation of great scientists across India. I’m going to be spending hours looking at all the research coming out of these labs!. (Side note - thrilled to see two labs I’ve worked at on this!!).
I & @_PoojaKulkarni have compiled a list of labs in India that are working in the field of Psych/Cog Sci. We have locked cells & only given comment access to anyone that wants to add more labs to the list. 1/3. Do reach out for Qs :). Link to the sheet:
