Preventive Therapy Targeting Positive Affect May Reduce MDD Relapse, With Marie-José van Tol, PhD | HCPLive Research suggests preventive cognitive therapy reduced relapse risk in recurrent depression by improving positive affect and anhedonia, van Tol explained in an interview.

Preventive cognitive therapy may reduce #MDD relapse risk by boosting positive affect and reducing #anhedonia, says Marie-José van Tol, PhD. Watch the interview here: www.hcplive.com/view... #Psychiatry #Depression

I'm SO pleased to announce that I'll be starting as an Asst Prof at @psychiowa.bsky.social this August.

The lab will focus on neural & computational mechanisms of motivation, affect, & decision-making, with the aspirational goal of translation to neuropsychiatric disorders. 🧠

Neurodivergent scientists bring vital creativity, focus, and new ways of thinking. But many labs and workplaces aren’t designed with them in mind @rsc.org

Neurodiversity isn’t something to fix, it is something to embrace

Graph of award probability of R35 and R01 from NIH factbook as a function of review rank percentile. As is apparent, 2025 is a significant departure, with lower award probabilities at all scores <40 and significant departures from norm, where even being in the top 10% is no longer a nearly certain indicator of success. Data source: https://report.nih.gov/nihdatabook/report/302

The data is in: the NIH goalposts have shifted.

What were once almost certain fundable scores have become coin flips and what used to be likely grants have become aspirational, leading to fewer awards.

Another manifestation of how HHS policies have led to fewer awards and less science.

🙏 thanks for saying that, I want to help out & feel a bit weird saying no to all review requests, but I really can’t justify this unpaid labor that won’t lead to paid labor. I already feel weird working/grant writing full-time unpaid, but there’s no way around it as I’m following my life’s passion 👩🏻‍🔬

That’s so cool! Never heard of it, will have a look 👏

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

Bailey Zimmerman with Luke Combs - Backup Plan (Lyric Video) YouTube video by Bailey Zimmerman

Anyone in my lovely network have example #Humboldt fellowship applications to share? #psych #cogsci 🧠 🧪 👩🏻‍🔬

Channelling my current anthem "Backup Plan" and gettin' back up after yesterday's disappointment of getting an excellent/previously fundable #MSCA score w/o funding

... go on and prove it
Don't let nobody clip your wings
Keep your head down, keep on the blinders
Tune out the doubters and all the closed minders
If it's in your blood, fallin' down ain't enough
To change who you were born to be

Gettin' back up, that's the only backup plan you need"
🤘💪😉🤓

"And you're hearin' all the talk about
'Maybe you should think about
What you're gonna do if it don't work out'
As far as I can see, there ain't no way to be
Somebody if you're just 'gon quit

So, if you got a fire, don't lose it
If you got a do-or-die dream, do it
If you got somethin' to prove, ...

This will be the SIXTH grant I'll write since learning of the devastating US #science funding cuts that cost me my job 1 year ago.

I'm proud of myself for persevering, grateful for the help & encouragement I get from ya'll 🫶 & for these kickass lyrics by Bailey Zimmerman & Luke Combs...
