One year ago 🤩 insane how time flies! My first year as post-doc is coming to a close and while somedays it feels like I am still in the same place I was a year ago, I also see how much I‘m not. I continue to investigate #executivefunctions in children with #chd and am continuously inspired. 🫀

Lately I started my Tuesdays with a swim again. So refreshing, so peaceful, so good. The longer the to do list, the better!

Smart but scattered. Have you ever felt like that? Like you know WHAT to do, but you seem to have a hard time figuring out HOW to do it?
I can highly recommend the books of Dawson and Guare regarding ways to learn and teach #executivefunctions

I just started my training to become a #Neuropsychologist here in Zurich last Friday. What an inspiring weekend, learning more about #executivefunctions and #neuropsychologicaltherapies! Meeting friends afterwards for Pizza at the riverbank of the Limmat is the best end to an intense week 🍕

#NobelPrizes in fashion: Mia Ekström and Emil Biering have interpreted the Nobel Prize in Physics, which awards research on artificial #neuralnetworks. The creation is adorned with hand-wound threads and beads, inspired by the nodes connecting nerve cells and the structure of AI technology. 💡🤯
