The Synapse (a neuroscience carnival)
purepedantry | December 11, 2006The Synapse #13 is capably hosted at Neurocontrarian. Thanks Nick.
I have a Synapse-related announcement. The Neurophilosopher, host of the other neuroscience carnival Encephalon, and I have noticed a decline in the number of posts coming into the carnivals. We have agreed that it would make both carnivals better if they were consolidated into one.
Therefore, until further notice the Synapse is being suspended. The permanent page will remain up to archive the old issues. If you would like to submit to a neuroscience carnival, submit to Encephalon. Submissions can be made either…

purepedantry | October 28, 2006I'm a space cadet, but remember to submit to the Synapse today for tomorrow's issue. It is being hosted at the Neurocritic (All glory to the Hypnotoad!!!...Check the link...you will understand). Submission details here.
purepedantry | October 19, 2006This Synapse features a special Society for Neuroscience line-up with Shelley, Evil Monkey, Nick the Neurocontrarian, and myself attending.
I arrived and faced a moral quandry of whether to drag my ass out of bed to see stuff. Having decided to have a look, I attended a Workshop on Teaching, a Workshop on Open Access publishing, nearly lost my mind, and a neurogenesis/gliogenesis slide session. Shelley summarizes some interesting work on oxytocin and vassopresin and critiques the lecture by Frank Gehry. Nick and Evil Monkey (here and here) have their sparse summaries here.
As you may have…
purepedantry | October 10, 2006So there is no one schedule to do the Synapse for next week, and this is kind of deliberate.
For those of you who don't know, the annual Society for Neuroscience convention is this weekend from Saturday to Wednesday. The SfN is the Lolapalooza of neuroscience meetings. Tens of thousands of neuroscientists from all areas go every year. Neurology rock stars go on stage to explain their newest bestest research, and hordes of male and female grad students (read: neurology groupies) throw their underwear at them.
Anyway, I am going to hold off publishing the Synapse until after the annual…
purepedantry | October 1, 2006The Synapse #8 has been capably posted at Mind Hacks. Thanks guys. Haven't figured out where the next Synapse will be. If you would like to host email me. I will let you know when I know.

purepedantry | September 19, 2006Hi everyone. Sorry for the lull in blogging. I was moving into the quintessential New York apartment. I now have a room only slightly larger than my mattress and back problems from trying to lug a couch up a three story walkup. Never again.
Anyway, over the weekend GNIF Brain Blogger published Synapse #7. The next Synapse is being hosted at Mind Hacks on October 1st. Submission details here.
