Its the first day of #MSU spring break and I just saw a student sitting alone in a classroom... Clearly they have had a rough semester.

Another publication hot off the press! Acute exercise does not appear to induce changes in activation of the locus-coeruleus as indexed through pupillometry. @amandamcgow Madison C. Chandler sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Just reminder that just because we only pay for 9 months doesn’t mean we don’t expect 12 months worth of work. Your committees should be meeting over the summer!

Since joining a research lab as an undergraduate in 2003; I have been incredibly fortunate to work with some amazing mentors, colleagues, and students. Over the weekend that effort finally resulted in the acceptance of my 75th peer-reviewed journal article and over 7k citations!

Congratulations Madison C. Chandler on your first, first-authored publication suggesting that fitness effects on reading may be driven more by attentional differences than differences in language processing. authors.elsevier.com/a/1ZiJF,28iJQx…
