An intriguing interview [1] with my fellow Yorkshireman+inimitable brain mapper Dr Karl Friston on the free energy principle +social networks*
*you will often see a modular hierarchical organisation emerging in human consortia to rapidly communicate information via dual graphs as we noted in [2]

Looking forward to teaching our #USC neuroscience PhD students tomorrow, 32 years after starting as a nervous new student who knew 0 neuroscience :) Fortunately the main textbook now weighs 9 pounds - 3.5 times heavier than in 1993 !!
