1/ New preprint out! We found distinct inflammatory pathways for depersonalisation (DP) and derealisation (DR).

Childhood IL-6 predicted later depersonalisation.
CRP predicted derealisation in an age-dependent way.

Currently under review.

This was moderated by empathy and autistic traits; such that people higher in empathy spent more time looking at the agents, and those higher in autistic traits spent relatively more time looking at the background.

Our new paper with the wonderful @DrSkripka & @gnomicbrain is out examining the role of visual attention in social interaction perception.

People spent more time looking at the agents relative to the background when they are interacting compared to not, even when the stimuli were dynamic.

Patients suffering from one of the rarest forms of brain tumour are falling through the cracks of NHS mental health provision.

@KatieDaughters of @EssexPsychology hopes her findings will lead to an expansion of mental health services to patients.

@vmloaiza1 @sheffielduni @EssexPsychology We’re sad to see you go, but so excited for your next step 👍

[Katie Daughters @KatieDaughters]

A big thank you to @Soc_Endo for funding this work!

[Katie Daughters @KatieDaughters]

This #WorldBrainTumorDay I’m delighted to share a new paper documenting the psychological impact of living with a rare brain tumour - Adult-Onset Craniopharyngioma (AOC)

[Katie Daughters @KatieDaughters]

Importantly, our research also demonstrated these patients aren’t receiving enough mental health support during this journey. More needs to be done to provide access to existing mental health services currently available for other brain tumour patients.
