Today is International Overdose Awareness Day💜
It is an opportunity to reflect on the impact of overdose, acknowledge the experiences of loved ones, and increase awareness about harm reduction. At REALab, our research explores Naloxone and the loved ones' experiences.

💡 Our brilliant JRA, @patrycjazalewska.bsky.social, is working on a fascinating project on how we visualise the self through bodily maps.
She’s run into a funding snag and could really use the community’s help recruiting participants.
If you’re +18 and have a desktop, please consider taking part!

It’s weird to live in a time when basic principles like cruelty is wrong, cheating is empty & the idea that curiosity, generosity, originality, the satisfaction of earned accomplishments & loving intimacy are the center of a good life feel like countercultural concepts

What a disgrace. I hope the UK and EU see this tragedy as an opportunity to take the lead because this research could not be more important to us all.
Well the NIH has cancelled the Women's Health Initiative, the largest study of women in history
It has been running continuously since 1991 and has provided massive key knowledge about diseases in women

A recent UK survey found that 72% of 14-18 y/o want more relevant and rigorous climate change education. Now, Sussex University is answering that call with a new degree called “Climate Justice, Sustainability and Development.” Classes start in Sept. 2026.

Any recommendations for something for a PhD student (and her supevisor) to read about the research cycle. How exisitng experimental data drives theory development, which in turn drives future expt data collection. Especially from perspective of how review papers and meta analyses contribute. Thanks.

Following a week of big emotions, I declare a celebration of a part of your brain that's been on overdrive but you've barely heard of: the Insula!
Each day, I'll pass along a fascinating something about the Insula. In 7 days it just might be your new favorite brain region (it's mine).
