Wrote a little guide on how to make publication-ready figures in Python using Matplotlib including a step-by-step example olebialas.github.io/matplotlib Should be suited for beginners but may contain some new tricks for more experienced users as well

Messed up the link, here is the correct one; olebialas.github.io/posts/matplotl…

That person has obviously never met an Arch Linux user before

I Wrote a little guide with examples on EEG preprocessing in Python (part II coming soon) where I also discuss whether "EEG is better left alone" olebialas.github.io/posts/eeg_prep…

I wrote another blog post on EEG preprocessing. This time, I address eye blink artifacts and repairing/rejecting bad channels and segments: olebialas.github.io/posts/eeg_prep…

Made a small edit to my post on EEG preprocessing: ICA is now computed on a high pass filtered copy of the data because it improves artifact separation, see Winkler et al. 2015 ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/docum… olebialas.github.io/posts/eeg_prep…

German ministry of education after making it effectively impossible for universities to hire postdocs for longer than four years: "we improved working conditions in academia"

One thing I've learned over the last years is that having properly pipelined scripts, structured data, version control and unit testing dramatically reduces the stress and anxiety associated with scientific data analysis!

Nicely illustrates the insufficiency of static flow charts for capturing complex dynamic systems

I just requested a refund for a work-related train ride from a German University. This involved me having to send not one, but two, physical letters because the University requires wet ink signature on every single form. A bizarre experience after spending two years in the US

Wtf does that even mean?

We are likely to advertise a postdoc position in the next month or so. If you are interested in brains, speech, language, oscillations, computational modeling, multisensory integration, predictive perception, please reach out and I can tell you more. RTs appreciated.
