Celine Samaey, PhD

📢 NEW PAPER 📢 Very excited to announce that the final paper I wrote during my PhD is now published in @BioMedCentral Psychiatry. Want to know more about the role of #identity processes in #childhood #adversity and #psychopathology? Check it out here ➡️ rdcu.be/eb6sW

Episode 1 of #KarakterCast presents our host, @BDalile, in conversation with @CSamaey from @labbram @BiolPsychol as they discuss her latest work on the impact of #childhood #adversity on threat and safety discrimination. Have a listen on our website: academischestichtingleuven.be/karaktercast

I'm eternally grateful to all collaborators on this project @Youth_inTransit, as well as for my colleagues at @LabBram for the continued support 🙏.

⚡NEW PAPER⚡ Exactly one year after defending my PhD, our paper on fear learning and generalization in adolescents exposed to childhood adversity is out in @TheJCPP. So glad to see such an essential part of my PhD work published. Catch the paper here ➡️ doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.1…

Using two implicit FPVS EEG tasks in 120 adolescents between 12 and 16 years old, we found that adolescents exposed to adversity show reduced neural threat-safety discrimination, providing support for an implicit hostile attribution of neutral faces (2/2).

📢 NEW PAPER ALERT 📢 Our research on facial expression processing in adolescents exposed to childhood adversity is out now in @BMCMedicine. And the best part? It's #OpenAccess ➡️ rdcu.be/dTIR0. @Youth_inTransit @CDP_KULeuven @leuvenbrainins1 (1/2)

In aflevering 2 komt ons @Youth_inTransit onderzoek naar de impact van pesten en andere vormen van kindertrauma aan bod 🙏.

Look mom, I'm on TV 📺! Ongelofelijk vereerd en dankbaar om te mogen meewerken aan deze driedelige documentaire over de impact van pesten. #VoorgoedVerpest vanaf donderdag op @VRTCANVAS.

It’s a wrap! Thank you all for attending, sharing your research, engaging in inspiring discussions, pitching high-quality posters and the fun in between! It has been a blast organizing #emhfc2024 with @bramvervliet @TomRBeckers @KVandael @Chalkia_A @m_dudziak_ @zaman_jona39926

Vorige week mocht ik bij @tada_brussels een gastles geven over hersenonderzoek🧠🔬. Enorm dankbaar voor de vele verwonderde blikken en kritische vragen die doorheen de dag aan bod gekomen zijn 💡. #ScienceCommunication @KU_Leuven @Youth_inTransit @leuvenbrainins1

📣 Out now in #EarlyInterventionInPsychiatry 📣 Using a large-scale @SigmaLeuven adolescent dataset, we investigated how alterations in identity development and threat anticipation may interact in the context of childhood adversity. Catch the paper here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author/D…

Hoe hangen verschillende omgevingsfactoren zoals fijnstof, peer relaties, trauma in kindertijd en levensstijl vader samen met lichamelijke en mentale gezondheid van kinderen? Schrijf je nu gratis in! kuleuven.be/child-youth/en… @UZLeuven @HSS_KULeuven @leuvenbrainins1 @UPCKULeuven

@AnneLWillems @LabBram @labgas_kuleuven Congratulations Anne 👏👏

As of last week, I'm officially #PhDone 🎓. Many thanks to my supervisors @winkel_ruud and @BartBoets, my colleagues at @Youth_inTransit and @CDP_KULeuven, and the jury members for their support throughout this journey.

Had such a wonderful time meeting fellow fear conditioning researchers and presenting our @Youth_inTransit work on adolescent fear generalization following childhood adversity at #EMHFC2023 🇦🇹🏔️.

@EttoriSofi @ljuba_pi @JR_Hochmann @MSCActions @ISC_MJ @CNRS Proficiat Sofie 👏

Thanks to the fantastic duo @ljuba_pi and @JR_Hochmann I'm going to spend the next years finding out how relations between objects and people are represented in normal cognition, development and autism #MSCA @MSCActions @ISC_MJ @CNRS 🍾🧠

🚨New paper alert🚨 Our latest paper in Journal of Adolescence is out📜. We investigated the influence of identity formation following childhood adversity on symptoms of depression, anxiety, and psychosis in 1913 Flemish adolescents. Catch the paper here👇doi.org/10.1002/jad.12…

I honestly cannot believe my 3-month research stay at @LabTomer has come to an end today. Thank you so much to all colleagues, especially @GilShner and @ZoharKleinPsyc, for the interesting and inspiring time together, both inside and outside the lab 🙏.

@VMazereel @Uhaifa @LabTomer Yes, on the other side of the mountain 😃.

@CSamaey @Uhaifa @LabTomer Wow! That's your daily commute? 😅

Very excited to officially start the @Uhaifa academic year with my very first labmeeting at @LabTomer today! 🤩

@VMazereel @Uhaifa @LabTomer It truly is! And the views, really puts cycling up Gasthuisberg into perspective ;)!

@CSamaey @Uhaifa @LabTomer Btw what a beautiful building. Something else than PSI or ON5bis
