i feel strongly the neuron would wear the the first way #psy303dc

Learning about visual systems in my #psy303dc class which brings back fond memories of my time at @neuroSURF_VTC ! Excited to return to VT this summer to continue working with developing #ipsirgcs in mice!
Fascinating viewpoint on the decision to prioritize those with prior mental illnesses in the covid-19 booster shot rollouts. Data shows an increased risk of complications due to Covid for those who have struggled with mental health issues before. #PSY303DC
The government has recommended #COVID19 vaccines for people with #MentalIllness. This prioritization came after a growing number of studies linked #MentalHealth disorders with a higher risk of COVID-19 infection and serious outcomes. Here's why. https://t.co/uafphPIm5V
This really stuck with me ❤️ #psy303dc
“Therapists are trained to be amygdala whisperers who land on these beaches, attempting to convince the loyal soldiers within implicit systems of memory that the war is over” Louis Cozolino - the neuroscience of psychotherapy
The amygdala has a significant influence in neurological and psychiatric disorders, yet there’s still so much to find out about the mechanism in which it effects these progressions

Research as a very interdisciplinary field has contributions from multiple disciplines. In this article, neuro engineers have located specific neurons that play a role in memory which may help in understanding more about Alzheimer’s

This makes me also consider the nature vs nurture argument and how our environment definitely influences and limits the types of decisions we make. #psy303DC
Most non-greedy decisions that humans make in volatile environments do not stem from exploration but from the limited precision of learning https://t.co/n0ocaIhSYs
#PSY303DC Being "right brained" versus "left brained" is a myth. The left and right hemispheres work and communicate together through the corpus callosum and a few other commissures. you really think half your brain would not let the other half have the tea?
#PSY303DC Jet lag is a disruption of circadian rhythyms due to crossing time zones and can lead to sleeplessness at night, sleepiness during the day, depression, and impaired concentration. Sounds like college to me
#PSY303DC The adrenal gland releases cortisol in times of stress which increases your blood glucose to provide your body with extra energy to facilitate brief emergency activity-- like getting your last minute tweets in for extra credit!
#PSY303DC The activation-synthesis hypothesis states that dreams represent the brain's attempt to amek sense of distorted information. I wonder what my brain thought about me taking a 20 minute nap in the freezing cold library at 2 AM
#PSY303DC When animals hibernate, they decrease their body temperatures to slightly above that of their environment and their heartrate is almost still. You may have heard about bears hibernating in the winter but less commonly known is that pet hamsters do too!
#PSY303DC Taking melatonin pills in the evening often isn't helpful for immediate sleep because your body is producing melatonin at that time anyway. Taking it earlier will probably be more effective!
#PSY303DC Not only is R.E.M my favorite Ariana Grande song, but it's what I really wish I were doing right now! REM is rapid eye movement sleep and is associated withvariable heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rates, combining deep and light sleep.
The popular concept of “left brained” and “right brained” people is a myth. The corpus collosum connects the hemispheres and allows them to communicate; only split-brain patients have separate hemispheres #PSY303DC
#PSY303DC you know that cosmic experience you get when you rub your eyes for five minutes? that is your visual receptors perceiving the mechanical pressure of your hands as light!
#PSY303DC The smell of a sweaty woman increases a man’s testosterone secretions, while the smell of a sweaty man increases a woman’s secretion of cortisol, a STRESS hormone. Lol
#PSY303DC Hope you all (who celebrate it) enjoyed your food today because it's the last thanksgiving many of your taste receptors will ever experience-- they are replaced about every 10-14 days!
