Ok, here we go: Much of my work concerns the history and return of scientific racism. I’ve written extensively about attempts to resurrect the shuffling corpse of
race science and eugenics for many years. Bigotry dressed up as biology. 1/n

@Sharon_ACox @MelissaOldham Thank you @Sharon_ACox 😊... and something else I would add, said by another examiner I worked with recently, is to think about what a candidate might learn from any correction you're planning to ask them to make... if the answer is 'not much' then why ask them to do it

[Erin Louise Bellamy PhD @erinlbellamy]

Very excited to share that I passed my PhD Viva Defense yesterday with just minor corrections 😍. What an incredible research journey this has been - and it is only just beginning! Huge thanks to my Director of Studies @JohnJDTurner for all his support 🙌.#diet #mentalhealth

There was a superb study of honesty around the world in 2019.

Leave 17,000 wallets (with contact email) containing various sums of money in 355 cities across 40 countries.
Would finders email the owner?

The result: rates of honesty vary a LOT.

@Rebecka08300150 Well the guy did say if we broke anything we'd have to replace it personally.... so maybe????

[John Turner @JohnJDTurner]

Another biopsychology trip, this time to the fascinating (though perhaps a little macabre in places) Gordon Museum of Pathology... this is an 'after' photo, so missing about another 8 explorers who came along... thanks to Alicia for organising 🧠🫀🫁👅🦴🦷💀🦶 @UELPsychLondon

[Erin Louise Bellamy PhD @erinlbellamy]

7 years later I finally submitted my PhD on the #ketogenicdiet and #depression. When I began in 2016, nobody was remotely interested in this area. Thankfully the hard work of these pioneers is paying off @ChrisPalmerMD, @GeorgiaEdeMD, @IainCampbellPhD, @janellison @KetoCounselor

[John Turner @JohnJDTurner]

...or maybe the extraordinary performance of the Drugs and Addictions Research Group in the School of Psychology at uel... just being a little picky, but no one ever really said this 😔

Thank you to the team at London Neurodegenerative Diseases Brain Bank @LNDBrainBank at @SGDPCentreKCL @KingsIoPPN for today's tour for our BSc Psychology brain fans... Lauren, Alicia, Daisy, Claire and Rebecka (and me!). Amazing place and vital work. @UELPsychLondon

[c0nc0rdance @c0nc0rdance]

Bear with me: this will be a longish thread.

I want to talk about the Map-Territory Relation in #science & why it matters to many topics in public perception of science.

It's what I think of when people insist that 'science says there are only two genders'.

[James Barnes MSc., MA @psychgeist52]

Framing depression as purposeful & meaningful leads to less stigma, study finds.

I'm afraid the answer as to why it is *not* framed this way is poltical, not least the power it has to undermine psychiaty/psychiatrists in thier role.
