As one of the newest Fellows elected to the @Science_Academy in 2023, QBI Director @pankajqbi delivered an incredible presentation today at Science at the Shine Dome. He offered great insight into learning, memory formation, and the amygdala. Replay: bit.ly/47nhrle

Great to chat to @NareldaJacobs10 today on World Suicide Prevention Day about the now generational Govt failures to address Indigenous suicides; why we need to #BuildAnArmy of Indigenous Psychologists as the Jilya institute has been doing without Federal Govt funding and virtually no state funding compared to public and philanthropic and my personal investment. And of course all things Jilya #transformingpsychology

We have unwittingly trained Penny, our Golden Retriever, to expect a treat every evening after we put the dishwasher on. The upside of this is that if I ever forget to actually put the dishwasher on she is very quick to let me know.

The evening emphasized the importance of amplifying marginalized voices and addressing gaps in our historical understanding. It was a powerful reminder of the need for inclusive and accurate narratives. Grateful for the opportunity to engage in such a meaningful discussion.

Stephanie shared details of her personal ancestry, adding a heartfelt dimension to her exploration of Indigenous engagement and historical truths. Her research into social work and Indigenous studies brought valuable depth to the conversation.

I attended a lecture at the University of Queensland this evening with Prof. Fiona Foley and Prof. Stephanie Gilbert (hass.uq.edu.au/event/16820/20…). Their discussion on "Speaking from Within" was deeply challenging and eye-opening. #UQ

This weekend my family and I travelled ~1000km (~620 miles) in our full electric car (from Brisbane to Armidale and back). The trip was smooth sailing, and having done a couple of long journeys in our EV - my biggest advice is this: plan to recharge the car frequently.

What we did not know was that they were autistic. We would not learn this until they were over 2 years old. When we did learn this, it helped us hugely as parents to understand how to raise them better and understand their unique perspective.

October is Giving month at Microsoft. Oct 18th is also Giving day for my favorite cause: the Queensland Brain Institute. I want to share a story. But first, I would love it if y'all would consider giving to QBI: bit.ly/GiveQBI #UQGivingDay #BeAChangeMaker
