New paper looks at 11934 clinicians treating major depressive disorder working in different settings (psychiatry, oncology, obstetrics, primary care).
Analyses show that settings impact on 1) what clinicians prescribe which impacts 2) treatment efficacy.

Chuffed to share my latest with @JASilvers! Here we write a review of fMRI MVPA methods specifically tailored for developmental cognitive neuroscientists. A 🧵 on how this paper came to be and what's inside...

“there was some concern in the administration about an unintended consequence of the pause: that it would allow journalists broader access to Gaza & the opportunity to further illuminate the devastation there & turn public opinion on Israel.”

Several thousand American Jews and their allies have mobilized across the U.S. to call for a ceasefire in Gaza.
The @ADL is calling the organizers “hate groups.”

Just this week, official Israeli government accounts have tweeted, then deleted, the following:
- Video of a fake nurse claiming that Hamas took over the Al-Shifa hospital
- False claim that “AP, CNN, NY Times, and Reuters had journalists embedded with Hamas terrorists on October 7th massacre”
- Video with fake captions claiming a crying elderly Gaza woman blames Hamas for the siege
- Graphic asserting Israeli ownership of all the occupied territories, including Syria’s Golan Heights
- False claim that Israel is “facilitating the supply of humanitarian aid to Gazan civilians.”
- Assertion that hospitals and ambulances constitute "legitimate military targets."
Israel is deliberately using "disproportionate force" in Gaza and targeting "civilian infrastructure" in an effort to limit its own losses and showcase its "military force," according to a confidential memo from the Dutch Embassy in Tel Aviv.

Beautiful group of solidarity behind and next to @RashidaTlaib as she takes her time the floor during the debate over a racist GOP attempt to censure her.
She is taking her time to call for a #ceasefire to save lives.
"Palestinian people are not disposable. We are human beings"
“Without her voice, we would lack even more empathy for the people of Palestine...Maybe because of your lack of diversity, you lack the cognitive & emotional ability to recognize diverse opinions.”

“About 10 settlers came, poured gasoline, and set fire to my house. … They also burned my son’s house and stole all my sheep and my livelihood. We will not go back there. I am 67 years old, and my children are psychologically damaged.” https://t.co/IxD9PUPt5J
The full phrase is "From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free."
If you believe that freedom for Palestinians means eradicating Jews, it says more about you than anyone else.
Stop trying to tell Palestinians what they mean when they call for freedom.
A good visualization/reminder that the hippocampus is (3-layered) cortex (i.e. it's not a subcortical structure as commonly assumed by fMRI researchers)! 😎🤓
The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally—across more than 20 countries—over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.
