  • I’m in Neuroscience. My favorite way to keep up is rss feeds of the 5 best journals (100-200 titles per week), rss feeds to the relevant pubmed search terms (20-50 titles per week) an google scholar email alerts to some of the most relevant researchers in my field, auto forwarding to kill the newsletter, and read through rss (50-100 titles per week, lots of duplicates). So every day I aim to open the rss reader and burn down the unread count. Papers that are really relevant to my research tend to show up 4-5 times over 2 weeks this way, so it’s hard to miss it. Which journals: you know that if you have been in the field for a while, if not, ask your colleagues and mentors where they publish and what they read.
    Bad papers sliding through the cracks: it happens, you don’t know unless you read it.

    If you get all the achievements for completing the game, what are achievements actually for? They are there to create fun or not so fun challenges above just completing the game. It’s not like someone will punish you if you leave some achievements incomplete. On the other hand, completing a tough one can feel like - an achievement!




  • I look at your post with a bit of suspicion- do you want to learn something, or do you just want to talk negatively about America and provoke others to join in? There are terrible and absolutely fantastic schools from infant care to postgraduate education. Many of the world’s best universities are in America. About half of the students in those universities come from American schools. The US has by far the highest number of Nobel laureates, many of whom immigrated after previous education abroad, but not all.
    While it is difficult to say anything general about K12 education in a continent-spanning country consisting of 50 states, I wouldn’t summarize it in one word as “crap”.
