Re: Improve your brain health?
http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/does-brain-training-work/ Another way to look at all this is that the very concept of “brain-training” is probably flawed. It is useful as a marketing slogan, but does not seem to be based in reality. “Brain-training” is just a fancy term for good old-fashioned le...

I will not presume to know how such...

Re: Animals in translation
Temple Grandin is a fascinating person.

Sounds like an interesting read.

Re: ATL WTF?
I know it's pop-sci, but in Freakonomics, an interesting case was made for the decline in teaching quality in the US being correlated with an increased presence of women in more prestigious majors (law, medicine, finance, engineering) sometime during emancipation. The talents go where the incentives...

Re: Coursera.org (and other online ed platforms)
I'm taking "Statistics 101" and "Writing in the Sciences" on Coursera right now.
Stats is very programming-heavy, but has a nice clinical focus.
I really like it thus far and the choice variety on coursera is enormous.
