Just wrapped an incredible Brain & Mental Health Art Show! We fundraised for the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa, featured 24 amazing local donors, & showcased +100 art pieces. Huge thanks to our sponsors, volunteers, the amazing auctioneer Alfie & my co-lead Nikita! See you next year, artists!
Lots of new connections lately, so an intro is needed! I’m a 2nd yr neuro PhD student at Carleton U, developing a neural measure of SU stigma (using EEG/IAT). I also work w. CAPSA (nonprofit), blending research & lived experience to reduce stigma thru SU health in practice/research Also I 💛 my 🐶
Dear Canada: tomorrow is Election Day. This is Mark Carney. Hint, hint.
Wrapping up a wonderful 3 day celebration of biological psychiatry at #SOBP2025 in Toronto. Strong representation from the Ottawa clinical neuroscience community 🧠👩🏽🔬📊
I am so thrilled to have so much interest in this work - thank you very much!! We are working diligently to publish these important findings amidst the swinging political pendulum we find ourselves in. Stay tuned!! Abstract: www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S000...
Come visit poster 215 today to see (@brainsbeesbikes.bsky.social) TNP2 lab’s technologist’s recent exploration into individualized resting state connectivity analyses in Trauma Exposed Controls, PTSD and acute THC administration #SOBP2025
An absolutely incredible talk by @dupatton.bsky.social! So many implications and tips for engaging with communities and the important of community expertise in our research!
Saturday of ##SOBP2025 starts at 8am(!!) but we're here for exciting talks on AI. Dr. Desmond Patton presents important work on social media and gun violence. Highlights important interactions between virtual and physical neighborhoods and discussing CASM- with caution on potential misuse.
Talk about application opportunities!! What an incredible presentation by Dina Katabi!
#SOBP2025 Finally in this session is Dina Katabi on detecting antidepressant use from nocturnal breathing. Broad idea: monitor health non-invasively. We're able to detect a lot of information (breathing, sleep, interaction, gait speed) from disruption to wireless signals interpreted by AI
Really inspiring presentation by Edward Chang today at #SOBP2025!
#SOBP2025 Next is Edward Chang, discussing decoding the brain for neuropsychiatric therapies. Deep brain stimulation for depression. Technology is outdated compared to cardiac pacemakers, does not account for the dynamic nature of the brain
Come check out my poster (#305) on themes of stigma across Canadian subreddits at #SOBP2025! We (@drkimhellemans.bsky.social) used a novel zero-shot learning approach - ask me what that means!!
