Thrilled that our article on knowledge, explicit stigma, and implicit biases towards autism across Hong Kong, the UK, and the US is now published #OpenAccess in @journalautism⭐Was so great working with @Yu_Lin_Cheng & Patrick Dwyer on this! 🧵1/6 doi.org/10.1177/136236…

How do people with mental health conditions experience bodily signals? 🧠🫀🫁 Our (@gabriel_mackie) new paper in eClinicalMedicine explores lived experiences and patient priorities for interoception research. 🧵1/n sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

To address this, we reviewed the literature in our new open access paper "Biological kinematics: a detailed review of the velocity-curvature power law calculation". 🎉 published today in Experimental Brain Research! link.springer.com/article/10.100… #PsychSciSky 3/9

Congratulations to our #INSAR2025 Awardees Dissertation: Dr. Grant Bruno (University of Alberta) Dr. Connor Keating (University of Oxford) Early Career Investigator: Dr. Charlotte Pretzsch (King’s College) Dr. Teddy Cheung (SickKids)

I am incredibly honoured (& shocked) to receive the Best PhD Dissertation Award from INSAR! This work wouldn’t exist without amazing mentors, colleagues, lived experience experts and participants! Special thanks to @Jennifer_L_Cook for her mentorship- I feel so grateful and lucky

🎉 New paper alert! 🧠 The velocity-curvature power law is one of the 'kinematic laws of nature' (Flash 2021), a 'fundamental law of human control' (Zago et al. 2016), and one of the 'kinematic regularities' (Frith & Frith 2023) thought to underlie all biological motion. 1/9

So honoured to receive this Prize - a huge thank you to everyone who supported me throughout my PhD (particularly my wonderful supervisors @Jennifer_L_Cook and Joe Galea) @TheCHBH @UoB_SoP @LES_UniBham @MIBTP_BBSRC

Congratulations to @LydiaJHickman , winner of the 2024 BNA Postgraduate Prize! Lydia’s pioneering research explores the complex intersections of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Parkinson’s disease. bna.org.uk/mediacentre/ne… #NeuroscienceAwards #BNAPrizeWinner #WomenInSTEM

Eeek! Thrilled to share this news! It's an incredible honor, and I'm deeply grateful for all the support I've received - especially from @Jennifer_L_Cook who played a pivotal role in this work! Huge thanks to @ExpPsychSoc, and to @DrRebeccaBrewer for the nomination✨
