Can scientists read your mind and figure out what youâre thinking just by looking at your brain? Well, sort of.
In this episode of The Social Brain with Taylor Guthrie (@The Cellular Republic) and I (@Sense of Mind) talk about a fascinating new area of cognitive neuroscience, called âbrain decodingâ as well as its counterpart, âbrain encoding,â and related topics. It all centers on the question posed above and the future applications, some of which are scary while others are inspiring.

SpaceXâs 25th cargo resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS) launched from Pad 39A on July 15, 2022. The Cargo Dragon carried up to 13,000 lbs of scientific payload and tech, including 8 Cubesats. The capsule docked with the ISS on July 16, 2022.
The Dragon Capsule carried out a variety of experiments that are designed to help scientists understand more about the world around us. The scientific research performed in the microgravity aboard the ISS canât be replicated anywhere else. Consider the ISS like an orbital laboratory, performing science for the Earth â off the Earth.
These experiments include studies of the immune system, including how it responds to stress and medications.
Unfortunately, the organization will not be rebuilding the damaged observatory.
The U.S. National Science Foundation issued a solicitation on Thursday for a new multidisciplinary, world-class educational center at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico, according to a statement by the organization. The center will serve as a hub for STEM education and outreach.

It was a big year. Researchers found a way to idealize deep neural networks using kernel machinesâan important step toward opening these black boxes. There were major developments toward an answer about the nature of infinity. And a mathematician finally managed to model quantum gravity.

How we got to where we are today, and where we go from here. Featuring Dr. Daniel Monti (Director â Marcus Institute of Integrative Health) and leading neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Newberg (DMT: The Spirit Molecule), we get a fresh perspective on the effects of stress. Thanks to a new study from the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, PA, there is now compelling evidence that this breakthrough intervention can help people to alleviate their emotional stress, as well as deeper insight into this exciting topic.
