Research psychologist at @VAMinneapolis / @UMN_Psychiatry studying how our biology contributes to or is impacted by trauma-related disorders like PTSD and TBI.
As many of you may know, #PTSD and traumatic brain injury (#TBI) are highly comorbid conditions. But they don’t merely co-occur - there is significant evidence that TBI plays a causal role in the onset of PTSD (1/x)
What a marvelous and much needed resource. My only complaint is that this didn't exist when I was in school. Please share with interested students/instructors!
One of the many joys of returning to in person conferencing is spending time with those who shaped your career (and rest assured, we were masked every other moment). Wonderful seeing and learning from @SarahLisanbyMD!!
Great running into @SethD_PhD at #SOBP2022. Former clinical coordinator in our lab - now Assistant Professor and Career Development Awardee at @VAMinneapolis/@UMN_Psychiatry. Where did the time go? Proud to say “I knew you when…”
Team science has been one of the unexpected joys of my career, and it's awesome seeing this tree continue to bear fruit! Congrats to all! Especially @DrEmilyD!
1,475 Military Veterans underwent diffusion MRI scans to chart brain aging. 9 labs then joined forces to see if brain systems age faster after brain trauma; cool study from Heather Bouchard, Raj Morey + ENIGMA's #Military Brain Injury workgroup https://t.co/gDno3YNcD7
Know any undergrad or graduate military/veteran/dependent of veterans interested in research? Let them know about this paid summer program in MPLS! Travel/housing provided!
@pokorny_victor I was literally having this discussion last night, when my partner objected to my use of "hands" and "feet" re: cats. She didn't realize that it's way more fun to say "we're holding hands" than "I'm clutching his paw".
Human Brain Mapping Special Issue "ENIGMA: The 1st 10 Years" is OUT! 32 papers, global brain studies: https://t.co/kxlzckOJga Kudos to 2000+ scientists making this possible, +editors @PKochunov @njahanshad@lianne_schmaal@AndersonWinkler Jess Turner Gary Egan Sophia Thomopoulos!
@NoahCVenables @feadeh Congrats! What ended up working for you? (If anyone asks why I'm using my academic account, it's cause this counts as research).
Come be my colleague! We have 2 openings on the Clinician Investigator Team at the Minneapolis VA, which is a hard money psychological research/clinical role that's also affiliated with UMN. I may be biased, but I think it’s a pretty awesome place to work! https://t.co/3aF5R5V8TQ
@feadeh @NoahCVenables@HeyTomGuy@spieltimes I love the use of scientific rigor to address gaming deficiencies. I need to bookmark this thread for when I inevitably cave and upgrade my PS4.
Very sad day. I'm one of the thousands of researchers (and millions of people) whose lives were profoundly improved by our association with this titan. Being in his orbit was awe inspiring- getting an email from him felt like playing catch with Babe Ruth. He'll be hugely missed.
Breaking News: Dr. Aaron T. Beck, the developer of cognitive therapy, has died at 100. His insights transformed the treatment of depression and anxiety. https://t.co/IAZ0qsAmUj
@russpoldrack@boburnham I've been saying this to everyone who will listen (and some who don't). It took my breath away. Plus about a half dozen solid ear worms.
