2 months agoFor those curious, I found this source: http://prefrontal.org/files/posters/Bennett-Salmon-2009.pdf (Bennet et al. 2009: Neural correlates of interspecies perspective taking in the post-mortem Atlantic Salmon: An argument for multiple comparisons correction)
Essentially it’s using a dead salmon as a lone control to argue that fMRI studies should be more rigorous in how they control for random noise.
Oh, that’s easy! Just take your understanding of how spontaneous symmetry breaking works in QCD, apply it to the Higgs field instead, toss in the Higgs mechanism, and suddenly SU(2) × U(1) becomes electromagnetism plus weak force!
