I had 7 seniors graduate from my lab this year, most of them after working together in my lab for several years. As a hilarious and unexpected parting gift, they went to JC Penney and took awkward family photos together. Really appreciate how hard they committed to the bit. 😂 The kids are all right.

What an honor it was to attend the 20th anniversary of Brains & Behavior, see former professors and friends, and give the keynote address.
This year, we’re celebrating GSU's Brain & Behavior 20th anniversary!

To celebrate we’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Laura Been, Associate Professor of Psychology and Director of the Bi-College Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program at Haverford College, as our annual retreat keynote speaker.

Congratulations to the Been Lab Class of ‘25! As is our tradition, they turned in their theses today, popped champagne, and signed where the corks hit the ceiling! 🍾

Such a shift would “put us back in the dark ages in terms of our science,” says neuroscientist Anne Murphy, who helped to formulate the original policy.
