@BarisaMark Thank you Mark

Congratulations @NeilPliskin !!! Well deserved!

Excited to reprise our Transplant Neuropsychology talk at #APA2024 with @price_phd, Sarah Szymkowicz, and Amanda Messerlie today!

@BarisaMark @UIC_XCTF @ILTechXCTF We’ll keep an eye out for him Mark at UIC. 😊

It's an official bittersweet moment. Z is heading to @UIC_XCTF to continue his journey to D1 track and field. Huge thanks to the coaches and teammates @ILTechXCTF for preparing him for this next step.

🚨TELL THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO PROTECT ACCESS TO PSYCH SERVICES🚨 Please weigh in bc this yr's proposed rule includes provisions that relate to supporting telehealth and are inclusive of psych testing The current proposal is not sufficiently inclusive of neuropsych services

@kylejennette @CalltoActivism Yes it is. Very tragic.

@CalltoActivism @NeilPliskin this your kind of EI story.

KISS OF LIFE In 1968, the author received the Pulitzer Prize for this photograph - one of the most prestigious awards in the United States, which is awarded for achievements in music, cinema, theater and journalism. The picture shows two electricians, Randall Champion and Jay Thompson, hanging from a power pole. That day there was a strong heat and nothing foreshadowed trouble. The hum of air conditioners in July 1967 was heard throughout the state of Florida. Because of them, in the city of Jacksonville, there was an overload of power lines, and this caused a power surge. Randall and Jay were doing routine maintenance on a live line when Randall accidentally touched one of the wires. A discharge of 4000 V passed through the body and his heart stopped. For understanding: during the execution in the electric chair, a voltage of 2000 V is used Randall's lifeless body hung from the harness. But his partner Jay did not lose his head, realizing that every second is precious, he began to give him artificial respiration right on the pole. It was very inconvenient, but there was no other way out. In such a situation, it is difficult to conduct a normal resuscitation, but Jay still tried to start his friend's heart until he had a weak pulse. Only after that he unhooked his partner's insurance and, throwing him over his shoulder, went down to the ground. By the time the rescuers arrived (they were called by professional photographer Rocco Morabito, who happened to be at the scene), Champion was already conscious on the ground. Not only was he saved, thanks to Thompson, but he lived another 35 years. The electrician died in 2003 at the age of 64. Thompson is alive today.

Dr. @NeilPliskin presents on how we solidify neuropsychology’s role in integrated healthcare Neuropsych needs to be patient-centered - being SILOED prevents us from doing this. Don’t be the “diagnose and adios” type of provider He shares a few recs for adapting our practice

Don't miss our Transplant Neuropsychology symposium tomorrow @APA with @kylejennette & @NeilPliskin! We'll give you the why, how, and what next for neuropsychological in integrated care settings #SCNatAPA2023 #APA2023inDC

@kylejennette is a fantastic teacher and neuropsychologist- what an excellent talk!

@TheAACN Very grateful and humbled by this award.

Just saw a kid in a t-shirt that said “Breaking Hearts and Blasting Farts” and I gave him a respectful nod.

My little sister Orli died by suicide on Friday. She was smart, funny, and had the biggest heart of anyone I had ever met, and I never saw her death coming. I cannot begin to fathom this loss, but I hope her 19 years of life can be recognized for the incredible gift they were.
