Christ, mummy almost did a little cry at this one pals. Corky the doglet with a rather splendid fleur de lys on his bummage.

My dog is my antidote.

Just when we thought dogs couldn’t get any more perfect - did you know that patting a dog has been shown to reduce blood pressure? Yep. 10/10, would pat again.

@angie_karan So awful. Hard to watch but we must.

Great story and endowment to the U of Washington by Armon Dadgar and Joshua Kalla, who ‘prefer to start giving their money now, rather than hoard it or donate it later in life.’

“It’s giving in a way that shines a spotlight on a really important need, which is the fact that financial aid alone doesn’t create a level playing field,” - Susan Ditkoff, Bridgespan Philanthropy Co-Head https://t.co/rO2qTxWUXP

Our Autumn issue of Brain Matters is now available to read online or download - just in time for some VERY autumnal Melbourne weather! https://t.co/MPARlasrac This issue has news about rare syndromes, motor neurone disease and a thank you to a major donor, Dr Mark Nelson.

[Elouise @elouiseholmes]

Distressing and shocking.

@SpringerSaint Disgusting treatment of pets

Professor Petrou has a particular interest in a type of epilepsy that affects females with changes in the menstrual cycle. These hormonal changes have implications for post-natal depression, and its treatment. #IWD2019

[The Florey @TheFlorey]

Dr Robyn Brown studies obesity, and the brain networks involved in the compulsive nature of over-eating, despite the obvious and severe negative consequences. 70% of one clinic’s patients were women, but these figures are not reflected in current research. #iwd2019

[The Florey @TheFlorey]

Dr Leigh Walker is concerned by the alarming rise in problem drinking and alcohol use disorder in females, and the different effects on female brains. Her work studies how a molecule called CART influences relapse in females. #IWD2019

[Elouise @elouiseholmes]

Prof Steven Petrou, Dr Robyn Brown, Dr Leigh Walker in conversation about female-specific research work that we do at @TheFlorey with our donors and Prof Emeritus Andrea Hull AO facilitating the chat #InternationalWomensDay2019 @DaxGallery a great venue
