Wow so many amazing health and bio tech innovation ideas at the Yale Innovation Summit e-posters! Thank you to members of the McP lab for coming out to support Lilypad 🐸

Wonderful opportunity to work with a fantastic mentor, Dr. Kaite Gotham, and an excellent team. If you’re interested in studying depression in autistic adults, definitely consider this research assistant position!

Looking forward to #AAPI night at Long Wharf Theatre. Stoked to step out of my comfort zone and moderate the talk-back w/ @ChochrPhD & Naomi Philip after “Queen,” a play about #Asian #WomenInSTEM 🐝! #AAPIHeritageMonth #intersectionality

Excited to share our work applying machine learning to identify predictors of the IQ-Adaptive Skills Gap in #autism today Thompson Center! Findings have implications for autistic wellbeing, especially during the transition to adulthood. Also, s/o to Brown Clinical Psychology Training 🐻

Our meta analysis summarizing the broad reaching effects of #sleep in autism is now out in Autism Research International Society for Autism Research, INSAR! Implications for targeting & prioritizing sleep health and continued integrated care efforts to improve wellbeing ⭐️

Hey - know an undergrad interested in psych grad school who wants more research experience? American Psychological Association is offering $$$ for minoritized students to get summer research experience!! Find a mentor, go to their campus, get great experience, and we'll pay you both! apa.org/about/awards/u…

Thank you Rona Moss-Morris for this fantastic keynote @connectAPS chronicling *true translation* of psychosocial interventions for #IBS and #IBD through development and integration of digital therapeutics 📲 #DTrevolution #industrypartners #impsci #aps2023puertorico

Dr. Laura Kubzansky from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and Dr. AndrewSteptoe from UCL debating the exchangeability of positive/negative psych states on health #aps2023puertorico Shakespeare ref stole my breath…and, can’t help but ? how the tragic end of Macbeth factors into the debate…🤔

Been looking forward to this symposium all week! Loved this helpful way of visualizing diverse neurodivergent profiles c/o Dr Lisa Quadt’s intro, shifting away from an oft stigma-inducing linear representation of the #autism “spectrum” #aps2023puertorico #interoception

‼️neurodivergent individuals have significantly higher rates of dysautonomia, hyper mobility, and pain. Interventions bridging brain-body integration and improving proprioception (not just CBT) may help to treat chronic pain, esp in neurodivergent individuals. 👏 @bendybrain

#aps2023puertorico Does interoceptive accuracy change in response to transcranial magnetic stimulation? Turns out, yes. Work by Dr. Cristina Ottaviani et al. shows that iTBS over the insula decreases IA assessed via heartbeat detection task 🫀

Is multisensory integration a transdiagnostic process underlying mental health conditions? Thought-provoking 🕵🏼‍♀️ by Sarah Garfinkel from her work examining the binding window for multisensory integration and degree of cardiac differentiation between self-other actions in dissociation🫀🧠

New Preprint on SOMAScience is out: preprints.jmir.org/preprint/47177 It details how you can use our pain app SOMA to run your own research studies and acquire longitudinal, multicenter pain and mood data. 🧵(1/3)

Congrats, Dr. Humphreys! Well deserved!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

4 past and present James C. McPartland Lab fellows learning about ways the scientific community can destigmatize autism, highlight unique abilities of autistic folx, and create a more inclusive workforce and society 💥👏🏼 TY to the Hilibrand Foundation for your continued support!
