25.11.2025 18:12 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I was invited to write a commentary about a great meta-analysis by Pan et al. that uses MET dose-responses to examine executive functions in children with ADHD. My doctoral student, Michelle Lim, joined me in writing this piece, where we recommend some future considerations for our field.

Our new paper is out today: Heightened menopausal symptoms mediate the associations between stress and depressive symptoms among midlife women.
This is the first of many projects we are undertaking in the lab to shed light on the importance of women’s brain health. Link to paper below!
Congrats! They’re so lucky to have you lead!

A great week for the lab! 12 of our students presented their projects at the College of Health Sciences Research Night, followed by a final spring lab meeting pizza party to celebrate our graduating seniors - and the sun (finally) came out just in time 🌞

Not sure when all my students became canva experts (probably because I walk into the lab asking for figures far too often)… but PhD student Janis Gaudreau’s poster is tomorrow at 2:30pm! Diving into individual differences among pediatric resting state EEG #CNS2025 @cogneuronews.bsky.social

Always proud of my lab - but especially excited to see them representing our group at Rhode Island BrainWaves today! A great family event each year bridging science education and communication within our local communities. Thanks for coming by our table and learning about “Exercise for your Brain!”

The hypothalamus is a small structure deep inside the brain that is connected to a vast number of other brain regions and tirelessly interacts with them. It controls and modulates many basic bodily functions to ensure the survival of the organism under constantly changing circumstances.
The #hypothalamus plays a large role in coordinating the neuronal signals that are responsible for keeping the body in a stable state.
A special issue unpacked this brain region’s impact on physiological and behavioral homeostasis. scim.ag/41FRESU #BrainAwarenessWeek
Congrats!!
