🚨New pub🚨 on the restless hippocampus and trauma memories. We link dynamic hippocampal-cortical coactivations to daily experiences of intrusive trauma memories in PTSD. A tale of collabs and bridging cog neuro w/ lived-experience reports via EMA 🧵

EMA study of dissociative episodes shows that heart rate does not change in relation to dissociation intensity, counter to "hypoarousal models" of dissociation. https://t.co/le5LUpCyDL

Hi #ACNP2024, this is my 11th ACNP (!). Come see our posters on Monday to chat neuroimaging and digital phenotyping in PTSD, led by Steve Granger, Kevin Clancy, Nate Harnett. I'll also be helping with discussion @ table 61 of the Women and Gender Minority Luncheon .come join us!

[Neuropsychopharmacology @npp_journal]

We are officially on the ground in Phoenix so it's time for the #ACNP2024 role call 📣

Introduce yourself, your science, tell us if you're a veteran or first-timer, promote your poster/talk/favorite social - whatever you want, this is your space to say it ⬇️

If you work at a government agency, CDC, FDA, CIA, FBI, NASA, NTSB, NOAA, anywhere, you need to start saving every gig of data you can find. Studies, organizational charts, employee manuals, policies and procedures.

Anything that can be used to recreate your agency from scratch.

@drdanbradford @TheRealSPR @rachel_goldblum @fmwhittaker Good to see someone in academia feeling like they won today. May your work pierce through and be actually impactful.

This was a fun pub. As part of a larger study, we're using EMA to track trauma memories. Clinicians often ask us whether participants’ symptoms change during the EMA period. Great question, so we took a look! Congrats to first-authors Yara Pollmann and Kevin Clancy. More to come.

Specific symptom change associated with ecological momentary assessments of intrusive trauma memories

@irosso & team @McLeanHospital show that 2 weeks of reporting on unique qualities of trauma memories leads to reductions in intrusion symptoms

@dp_moriarity Do Penn first year grad students still do a 699 Master’s thesis? That was the case back “in my day” and made for an intense year. One of the considerations would then be mentoring the student through that.

[Isabelle Rosso @irosso]

Congratulations MMHRSP trainees, and big thank you to the mentors and organizers. Lots of talent, hard work, and dedication in the picture below👇

[Dr. Josephine McGowan @josie_mcgowan]

I am still reeling from how wonderful today has been. MMHRSP worked hard to get these students from underrepresented backgrounds here and give them the best research experience. We advocated for them. We connected & formed community. What a delight to celebrate their growth 🥹

[Kate Webb, PhD @_brainstorm_12]

Y'all, I am so proud of this paper! ⬇️ Where we live can influence our likelihood of developing PTSD! But research on resilience after trauma has often focused on individual 🧍 factors and overlooked influential neighborhood 📷factors that may help mitigate the PTSD development
