Our attempt at explaining the findings from our Translational Psychiatry paper on the clinical relationship of #Parkinsonsdisease and #Schizophrenia: https://t.co/TnDtxUnyzV
Hope it spurs discussion!
Shoutout to @anoooshka_ and @kad_leidoscope - video masterminds/makers :)

In this #PaperSplainer, @bindu_kalyani unpacks the #neuroscience behind movement-related side effects of #antipsychotics, and what this means for safer, more personalised #psychiatric care.

ಕೋಪ, ಭಯ ಅಥವಾ ಖಿನ್ನತೆಯಂತಹ ಭಾವನೆಗಳು ನಾವು ಹುಟ್ಟುವಾಗಲೇ ನಮ್ಮೊಳಗಿರುತ್ತವೆಯೇ? ಅಥವಾ ನಾವು ಬೆಳೆದಂತೆ ಅವನ್ನು ಕಲಿಯುತ್ತೇವೆಯೇ?

ಇದರ ಉತ್ತರ ತಿಳಿಯಲು ನಮ್ಮ ಎರಡನೇ ಆವೃತ್ತಿಯ 'ಮೆದುಳಿನ ಮಾತು' ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮಕ್ಕೆ ಬನ್ನಿ. "ಪ್ರಕೃತಿ ಮತ್ತು ಪಾಲನೆ" ವಿಷಯದ ಕುರಿತು Suhas Ganesh ಅವರೊಂದಿಗೆ ನಡೆಯುವ ಚರ್ಚೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಭಾಗವಹಿಸಿ.

Meet the Savarnas by @ProfRavikantK: what a fantastic book, what an in-depth & unflinching examination of how caste mutates to villainously merge with whatever one labels as modernity in India; it puts so much vocabulary into that subliminal tapestry. Must read.

🌟Today @pgc_fg and @PGCgenetics are in India, where we love to highlight Dr KALYANI BINDU's @bindu_kalyani work and the dynamic functional genomics scene @NIMHANS_BLR 🧬🧠
She shows that many of the same biological mechanisms play a role in different #mentalhealth disorders !

It's been a while since I revealed my internal landscapes. What better place to do that than in Modern Lit. Safe haven :) Deep gratitude.

Fiction out in Modern Lit. Wrote it last year, much like a tribute to how fiction & its resolve to stay unresolved help meaning-making in life (if we want it to). Gave it an unceremonious title: Barge.

@HeidiPriebe1 This would have been incredibly vulnerable to write for yourself & share - can relate to some parts of it - it's a very painful thing to process. Sending lots of love. And more power to you - may lots & lots of branching points & the cognition & emotion to prune them emerge.

Congratulations @bindu_kalyani for being awarded the first Career Development Fellowship at CBM-NIMHANS!

Dr Karunakaran's work focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying cross-disorder relationships & psychiatric drugs with cross-disorder effects.

I only wrote one poem last year and it's in this week's New Yorker

🧬 Researchers at the Centre for Brain and Mind have identified a novel homozygous variant in the CPLANE1 gene in a child with cranioectodermal dysplasia (CED). CED is a rare #geneticdisorder affecting skeletal and ectodermal tissues.

Thanks to Modern Literature for giving my poem-infants a home! It's always scary to send them out into the wild, but I know they're going to thrive in ModernLit :)

Come find my poster at #FENSForum2024 tomorrow (no. 412)! Broadly, it's about: higher-order spatial & functional patterns underlying psychiatric & neurological drug targets, incl. their connections with disease genetics.

An excerpt from "Therapy at 18:18"

This piece has been rejected an absurd number of times. It couldn't be because of my insurmountable compulsion to find philosophical meaning in a straw of grass, right?🤔 #writercommunity
