Yesterday I told my boyfriend my pec was sore. He asked “which one” and I quickly responded “major”. He looked at me weirdly because he wanted to know L/R ...thanks med school!!

Residents (and staff doctors) are excluded from labour rights in Ontario. And with CaRMS have no means of negotiating our working terms.

Food 🥘, music 🎵, and the brain 🧠! What else could you ask for? Check out our new meta-analysis investigating common and distinct neural correlates of music and food-induced pleasure, with @larissa_maini, @gsescousse, and @zatorrelab 👉https://t.co/JDWAJzj9VN

[Larissa Maini @larissa_maini]

Excited to share this article that combines a few of my favourite things... music, food & science! What more could I ask for in a project??

Happy to share a new preprint with @Larissa_maini, @gsescousse, and @zatorrelab. We ran a series of meta-analysis comparing brain responses to food and music-induced pleasure to identify both overlapping and reward type-specific activations.
