Stress contagion, what can you do about it? Happy to have been interviewed for this article: wapo.st/4j3f8ZF

As love is celebrated this week on #ValentinesDay, researchers at @umontana are exploring the age-old question of what creates romantic connections. UM researchers are using speed dating events to collect data and learn how people connect. Read more💛bit.ly/UMdating

@LinaSHansson @SocNeuroHealth Congratulations Dr. Hansson!! 🤩

Incredibly honored to receive the Greenberger and Bertha Morton Scholarship! I am so thankful for the UM Psychology Department for nominating me for the Bertha Morton & for @DrMartinWagar for her continuous support and encouragement😊

I'm super excited to share my freshly published article in @BBI_Health 🎉, where I elaborate on how important it is to help others, live in a supportive society and how it can improve our health through PNI mechanisms! #OpenAccess @PNIRS doi.org/10.1016/j.bbih… 1/3

Awesome new postdoc opportunity in clinic psych here at the University of Montana! Check it out.

“I think we as scientists embody something fundamentally, beautifully human … I still, idealistically and perhaps naively, believe in beauty because we, or some of us at least, experience it and are moved by it.” — Sliman Bensmaia, PhD, 1973-2023 uchicagomedicine.org/forefront/news…

I am so so SO excited to share the final version of my FIRST first author paper. My thesis work is exploring the relationship between PTSD and severe asthma, and this work sets the stage for the bulk of that. authors.elsevier.com/c/1hbi3_6zybbj…

New study by #UniKonstanz psychologist Stephanie Dimitroff @sjdimitroff examines our brain can assess the state of our own health more precisely than we think – and it is probably even able to correctly evaluate the state of our immune system. Details: t1p.de/keseb

@kim_meidenbauer That’s amazing. Congratulations!! 🥳💪🏻

🥳🥳Over the moon that this is official! I'm so excited about this project on #equitable and #restorative public spaces & it's ya girl's 1st funded grant as a PI! 🎉😃 And I get to work with a kickass group of psychology/geography/engineering researchers. Could not be more hype!

@kthlong @slimanjbensmaia ❤️

Absolutely shattered by the loss of one of the strongest forces in my life, @slimanjbensmaia. He was impatient about all the right things, relentless in his pursuit of, not only knowledge, but people. I will forever miss his laugh, banter, music, and mentorship.

Check out @smith_ke's new awesome paper about parents' perceptions of stress 👨‍👩‍👧

My favourite German saying is "Du bist doch nicht aus Zucker" Translation: You're not made a sugar - hence don't be scared of the rain. I also love Dr. @Maria__Me__ 's research on sugar and stress reactivity! Check her new video about her sugar research! 🍰

@DanielaMier1980 zum Wohl!

Happy hour in Meersburg: Double sized Aperol Spritz 🙈

PS. As I posted last week, @JLasselin and Manfred Schedlowski wrote an excellent guest editorial on immune interoception that accompanies the paper: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… /end

How? We may be able to sense our immune health through a number of pathways. While I cannot pinpoint the mechanism precisely from this study, the evidence does point to interoception of immune signals as a likely explanation. More research is needed! 6/
