Loved learning about @Hannah_Dames's research today on how people spontaneously improve when they reason. Most research treats reasoning as a set of stable, fixed processes, but her work investigates the moving target.

Dear #BLACKandSTEM, it's ok to not be ok. And to acknowledge that we're working through an array of complex experiences including grief, anger, brain fog, etc. My hope is there is some respite and refuge for you, and that you know you're worth moments of joy in hard times. -SP
Kay Alfred, who just defended her PhD from Dartmouth, gave a fantastic talk in our lab today on her thesis work. She investigates neural signatures of the spatial models that underpin concrete and abstract transitive reasoning. Here's her latest paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/s42003-019-0740-8

#BlackinPsychWeek was amazing. Training and working in the DC/MD area, I was blessed to be trained by so many Black psychologists. Moving to another area has reminded me how isolating being #BlackinPsych can be in some areas. Thank you for putting this together. https://twitter.com/BlackinPsych/status/1376008486484639750
As we conclude #BlackInPsychWeek, we want to express immense gratitude to each and every one of you that SHOWED UP and participated! We’ve learned so much from all of you. Please continue to use the hashtags to connect and build community with us and each other! 💛

You bore us. If science is a “commitment to truth” shall we site all the historical non-truths perpetuated by scientists ? Of course not. It’s not science vs Philosophy ... It’s Science + Philosophy. Elevate your Thinking and Consciousness. When you measure include the measurer. https://twitter.com/drewgrey/status/1363905675957473288
