@OHBM_Trainees I always come away from OHBM feeling inspired and motivated, however, this year more so than ever. I’m so incredibly lucky to work alongside such brilliant and amazing colleagues who I now get to call my friends. Cheers #OHBM2025, I’m already looking forward to Bordeaux!

[Meg Sheppard @_megsheppard]

I had the incredible opportunity to attend #OHBM2025 in Brisbane. I presented my most recent research investigating the role of neuromodulator subunits in explaining amygala volume loss in older adults who experienced early life stress! 🧠🧬

[Meg Sheppard @_megsheppard]

@OHBM_Trainees This year, the SP-SIG collaborated with OHBM’s Communications Committee developed two new in-person scientific communication competitions at the conference which were a roaring success. ComCom’s Comms Comp (😆) was a labour of love which I am incredibly proud of.

It was pleasure to chair a symposium on academic burnout at #OHBM2025, on behalf of @OHBM_Trainees 🔥

A HUGE thank you to our wonderful speakers, who were willing to be so open and vulnerable about their personal experiences - @fMRI_today, @AmyBrodtmann & @DanielMargulies

[OHBM Trainees @OHBM_Trainees]

Academics, including students, postdocs, and ECRs often face high expectations for long work hours and limited work-life balance. At #OHBM2025 we will be hosting a symposium on "Academic burnout and how to deal with it".

Speakers:
@DanielMargulies
@AmyBrodtmann
@fMRI_today

[Eduardo Garza @egarzav]

Our symposium is free of charge. Come to Querétaro and show your research!
