Are traumatic memories different from run-of-the-mill episodic memories? This thread is now required reading for my cognitive psych class. (Excellent timing too, as we'll start diving into memory this week).

Frankly, this should be required reading for everyone everywhere.

@VirpiKalakoski Muistan nämä juhlat ja tunnelmia ja omia havaintoja sieltä. Olisin varmasti muistanut myös että gazpachoa oli tarjolla, mutta muita tarjoiluja en pysty palauttamaan mieleen. Täydennän päättelemällä että ehkä patonkia tarjottiin. Kiitos reseptistä!

"Prospective memory”—the ability to remember to act on our intentions—declines with age. But older people can perform on a par with younger ones when they use their extended minds: that is, when they rely on the external environment to provide cues and reminders. 1/8

This #vastaamo case in Finland is simply awful. A psychotherapy clinic has been #hacked & the sensitive therapy notes of tens of thousands of patients, dating back over years of treatment, have been stolen. Current & former patients are now being blackmailed. Via @mikko #infosec

Absolute 🔥 from @yael_niv:

"Behavioral, rather than neuroscientific research, is essential for understanding the brain, contrary to the opinion of prominent funding bodies and scientific journals, who erroneously place neural data on a pedestal"
