Engagement
A typical post picks up 620 interactions against 1.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.033%. Measured over 50 original posts, its engagement rate beats 66% of 3,774 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 141K times each, and 0.439% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 7.52% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 50 posts sampled, 68% carry an image or video, 18% are part of a thread and 18% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 7.1K interactions, about 11x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D.'s engagement rate beats 66% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 35% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

The whole body MRI thing is controversial for obvious reasons. It’s costly & there are a lot of false positives. But I have neurosurgeon friends who tell me they do life-saving surgeries *every month* b/c people got full body MRI merely b/c they curious & found operable issues.

Know why there are so many fewer clinical studies of LSD than other psychedelics (not talking ibogaine; that’s another issue)? Because it lasts so long and most lab employees just won’t/can’t stay that long. Seriously.

Simple exercise to focus your mind and stop worrying: – Draw a line down the middle of a piece of paper – Left side: everything you're concerned about (world events, opinions, outcomes) – Right side: everything you can directly influence – The right side will almost always have just one thing: yourself – Break "yourself" down: how you think, how you speak to yourself, how you plan your day – Do this exercise once a month, or whenever sticky thoughts wake you up at 3am Retired Navy SEAL @AndyStumpf77 on @hubermanlab

Did you know attention help regulates your immune response? "Our findings therefore establish a causal link between attention and immune regulation in vivo, suggesting that processes often considered autonomously regulated, such as inflammatory responses, are influenced by the voluntary allocation of attentional resources." https://t.co/MfuXj97yhm

Travis Kalanick says new media is why he's back after eight years of silence: "The media landscape 10 years ago, 90% of what was said was very negative. Business had become politics, and we didn't know it... If it bleeds, it leads, right?" "Now the media landscape is like, 'yeah, you don't have to talk to those guys.' You can go and talk to a David Senra. You can go and talk to Joe Rogan or name your guy, and you can say what you need to say." "Elon buying Twitter is the beginning of us being able to speak our minds and for disagreeing to not be illegal. That's a big deal. We should all thank Elon for that." "I want to build. I want to not think about what The New York Times is writing when I make decisions about what I build. I had to emulate what it's like being a capitalist in Russia... and that's what I did for eight years." @travisk

- What is Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D.'s engagement rate on X?
- Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. (@hubermanlab) has an engagement rate of 0.033%, based on the median interactions across 50 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,877,468 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.033%, Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,378 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @hubermanlab have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 66% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @hubermanlab post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.47 posts per day across the measured window.
