Getting out of your own comfort zones can have big cognitive benefits. That's part of Adam Roth's research at @Schuessler_IU.

Listen to this, and then go make some new friends! It could pay dividends in the long run.

How many friends do you have? How many different *kinds* of friends? Putting yourself out there can help you, cognitively, in the long run.

Greater diversity in our face-to-face interpersonal networks might help ward off cognitive decline as we age. That's according to the growing research from scholars like @Schuessler_IU's Adam Roth.

Listen, RT, make more friends!

The research suggests that the more diverse your in-person social networks, the more challenged/activated your mind, the better chances you have to ward off cognitive decline as you age. @Schuessler_IU's Adam Roth tells us more.

Dr. Adam Roth is studying cognitive function, decline and the personal, face-to-face networks people enjoy.

He discusses his newest research, and says the data suggests greater diversity of our social networks serve us well as we age. Listen and RT.

We love innovative research, and learning about Drs. Walton and Hong's work at @IUSocialWork using machine learning to study thousands of cases of those coping with mental health issues, we were intrigued.

You will be too! Listen now!

What makes up our trust in experts? @IUPsychBrain's @GreenwaldTessa and her co-authors are out to understand and explain institutional trust, or "Do people feel they can depend on science and scientists?"

She talks about their research here.

"Do people feel that they can depend on science and scientists?" That's one of the questions @GreenwaldTessa is asking in new research. The @IUPsychBrain grad student talked with us about her work for this very interesting, and timely, episode.

"Science can improve life around the world, but public trust in science is at risk," writes @GreenwaldTessa and her co-authors in new research.

The @IUPsychBrain student talks about the study, and we worked in a great Young Frankenstein reference, too.

There's innovative research going on @IUSocialWork, where machine learning is being used to process years of mental health data. The analysis is building out helpful models for experts in the field.
