I am also extremely grateful for my mentors at NIH (thank you @silviaLGneuro !), UW-Madison, colleagues, and friends who have provided invaluable support during this process.

I’m beyond excited to share that I’ll be starting my PhD in Cognitive Psychology at Yale this fall with support from the NSF GRFP! I feel deeply grateful to be joining this community and to work with @RobbRutledge and the Rutledge lab!

Honored to have received an @NSF graduate research fellowship this morning! Couldn’t have done it without Dr. Ian Gotlib @Stanford & Dr. Katharina Kircanski & Dr. Danny Pine @NIH #NSFGRFP

So proud of #umdadhd alum Elizabeth “Lizzie” Tandilashvili who received a Graduate Research Fellowship from @NSF!!

[Joey Heffner @jpheffne]

I am SO excited to share my latest #preprint with collaborators @RobbRutledge, @zebkDotCom, @MartinJChadwick, @summerfieldlab, and others from DeepMind:

"Increasing happiness through conversations with artificial intelligence"

Mothers’ acute and prolonged stress predicted their children’s cognitive performance on a working memory and cognitive flexibility task. Quadratic effects indicated worse performance at high and low levels of maternal stress. @bellalarsen_14

Big thanks to my mentor @silviaLGneuro for all of the support!!

[Clara Haeffner @chaeffner12]

With SNE 2024, a wonderful conference-filled summer/fall ends. I had the privilege to attend several meetings, including the NIH Postbaccalaureate Poster Day, where I was awarded an Outstanding Poster Award.

[Clara Haeffner @chaeffner12]

Now, I shift my focus to the PhD application cycle. I’m interested in interactions between affect and decision-making, particularly through ecological approaches, computational modeling, and individual differences.

Excited for the next chapter!

Excited to present my undergrad honors thesis work at SfN tomorrow! Come visit me Wednesday morning (8-12, at OO9) to hear more about how lifetime and acute stress interact with the brain. I’d love to hear your thoughts :)
