Life isn’t fair, deal with it!
Nothing happens for a reason
You’re gonna die.
The universe is indifferent to our presence, even more to our tragedies.
You’ll be forgotten, it’ll be like you never exist.
Look at the stars and understand our cosmic insignificance.
There is no god.
En el Congreso Latinoamericano de Psiquiatría, cerramos con una gran asistencia el simposio “Delírium 2.0: de la prevención a la predicción”. Conversamos sobre cómo avanzar en la comprensión del delirium, el trastorno neuropsiquiátrico más prevalente en los hospitales generales. #APAL2026 #SaludMental @ACP_Psiquiatria@MedicinaPUJ@MedicinaUpb@sergioardila01
Vivaldi's “Winter,” visualized in a fascinating way, so that the auditory experience is even more intense; one can literally “see” the music, so to speak
@cesaralo@usopen ¿Un periodista deportivo diciendo totazo? Y además, el video no es consecuente con su tweet. En este punto María Camila hace un drop shot ganador. Más rigor, periodista.
@soyjaimeandres No sea descarado, renuncie!! @soyjaimeandres. Esto le quita seriedad a su gobierno @ABDELAESPRIELLA y pierde credibilidad como líder.
El que no tenga disponibilidad para atender 24/7 una emergencia nacional no sirve para ministro.
Liftoff.
The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.
Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

Genes Play a Key Role in Trust
Researchers made a significant breakthrough in understanding the origins of trust, demonstrating that our genes are responsible for about one-third of the variation in trust among individuals.
The study utilized twin data and a meta-analysis to dissect the heritable and environmental components of trust.
Their findings reveal the complex interplay between genetics and various life factors in shaping our ability to trust, suggesting that trust is not just a product of our experiences but also embedded in our DNA.
This research not only sheds light on the genetic underpinnings of trust but also emphasizes its pivotal role in social cohesion and personal relationships, offering new perspectives on enhancing community wellbeing through a deeper understanding of trust's foundations.

Decision Making: The Brain's Blueprint for Future Insights
A new study provides insights into the brain's process for making decisions about obtaining future information, highlighting the role of the lateral habenula.
The study illustrates that both humans and animals use a sophisticated set of mental rules to evaluate the value of cognitive rewards, such as knowledge about the future, alongside physical rewards like food or money.
This dual-function decision-making involves balancing the tangible benefits of rewards against the intangible, yet potent, drive of curiosity.
Crucially, this research not only deepens our understanding of the brain's decision-making mechanisms but also signals new directions for addressing mental health challenges by fine-tuning the neural circuits that govern choices, potentially offering more personalized treatments for conditions like OCD, anxiety, and depression that disrupt the normal processing of uncertainty and decision-making.

For those unsure about the genetics of schizophrenia, here is one of my favorite slides that I made many years ago. Twins share most of their environment, starting in the uterus. If concordance for illness is higher among monozygotic twins, this is largely due to genetics.

La sub estimación clínica y/o pobre entendimiento del termino “personalidad” y su compleja influencia en la interacciones intra e interpersonal, no solo será el mayor fracaso de la psiquiatría, sino también su condena al desencuentro eterno con lo que siempre ha querido entender.
