New paper from mon équipe! PFC plays a role in rapid (100ms) capture of visual attention by threat (i.e., snake in the woods).

Recommendations for resources on PTSD for individuals with 0 psychology background?

For example:
lectures
news articles
websites
representations in art/lit/film, etc. (accurate or inaccurate, could be a good discussion point)

Thanks!

Is there an open-source option to run simple touch-screen behavioural experiments on an Ipad/tablet WITHOUT internet?

Check out my virtual poster at OPAM today ("I" before "E" except after "C": Does learning rules before exceptions enhance visual object category learning?). My virtual session is happening on zoom from 12:30–1:10PM EST; DM for details! https://t.co/Uxa8JxHunr

Maybe the extreme heat is making me grumpy, but I wrote about mansplaining. If you don't like foul language, just skip it. https://t.co/z4ncCncr6q

My first stint on live TV to discuss our work using smartphone technology to combat memory loss. Live TV is intense! Hope I did justice to this great work led by @_chris__martin_ @rachelnewsome @chrishoney and @bryan_hong_ https://t.co/aoZl87Eru8

Slightly nervous to be sharing my story in science, which has many good things but also some painful ones. Here's to destigmatizing mental illness.

@mariam_s_aly This is really incredible. Thank you for doing this!

How do we form associations between objects, faces and scenes? @rosanna_olsen and I show that associations with scenes are better remembered, even when the scene isn't presented at test and is fixated as much as faces. Now out in Learning & Memory: https://t.co/V4dOQkIV2A

So psyched to see this out--first ever article with my name on it (!) plus it was working on this project with the amazing mentorship of both Signy & Sarah that I first realized I might a) want to do a PhD b) to study memory c) and aging 😊

Having an informal lab(s) meeting on time management/productivity/work-life balance. Anyone have a favorite (ideally recent) article in the press? Science-academia specific probably best.
