Artemis II was overshadowed by other bad things in the news but what it accomplished was frankly amazing. We are capable of incredible and unprecedented things. I’m in awe at how far we safely sent humans into space.

Really looking forward to this

The INS Mid-Year Meeting Dublin 2026 abstract deadline has been extended to Wednesday 4th March 🧠🇮🇪☘️ We are encouraging everyone particularly students and early career stage individuals to submit in order to showcase the important research being completed in neuropsychology! insdublin2026.com

It still utterly blows my mind, and always will, to think how an amazing being like this, its fingers reaching high into the sky, grew from just a tiny acorn, then a seedling with two leaves.

One week remaining to submit an abstract to @insneuro.bsky.social Dublin Mid-Year Meeting 🌍🧠👀 @donbps.bsky.social @ins-slc.bsky.social @unaidiazorueta.bsky.social insdublin2026.com

This is going to be fantastic. We've waited a very long time for the @insneuro.bsky.social mid-year meeting to come back to Ireland. Working on abstracts.... 🤞

Congratulations @unaidiazorueta.bsky.social, very well deserved. Looking forward to the mid-year meeting in Dublin

Mother Ireland by Eavan Boland.

Feels like a Stevie Nicks morning in my house

I read this early in the year & saved just for now!

Inclusivity, tolerance and active citizenship. Bring it on President Connolly.

Lovely breakfast Apple cake baked Homemade lasagne made and in the freezer Chicken stock reducing on the hob Two christmas cakes out of the oven About to start dinner, nice red, stupid movie Plus, listening to great music all day That's a good weekend to me

Seeing as it's #IrishBookWeek, I've put together a Starter Pack of bricks 'n' mortar bookshops. Terrified I've forgotten someone obvious so please let me know of additions go.bsky.app/G4kmxVq

What's the name for that amazing feeling you get when you finally get around to a very quick and easy bit of life admin that you've been putting off forever?

The impact of Patti Smith on Irish music. Her memoirs have been really popular here too. Interesting article:

I love choosing books for upcoming holidays. Open to recommendations for trip next week. I have The Dispossessed by Ursula K LeGuin, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong, and Perfection by Vincenzo Latronico lined up. Cannot wait. Probably need one to two more.

The Robbie Williams soundcheck has just started as I'm having breakfast. He's sounding good singing Feel.

I’m glad I lived before the internet.

I'm not particularly an Oasis fan but living very close to Croke Park I can say that last night's gig sounded fantastic. I got tickets as a local resident for my brother for tonight and he is in for a great night I'd say. Great vibe around the local streets too.

Glad to see this reported. The psychological needs of people with dementia and their families are so often unmet. We need to expand access to psychological care including the counselling mentioned here but also many other peri- and post-diagnostic supports.

It was this day two years ago I went to see Joni Mitchell in concert with the best people

Are you a #neuropsychology trainee interested in a leadership position? The INS Student Liaison Committee has SIX open positions, and are hoping to increase global representation! The applications are due June 30th! Check out the positions and requirements here: buff.ly/gWDtd7s

Great day today at the Memory Clinic Conference arranged by the National Dementia Service and HSE. Very interesting overview of where we came from and where we're going, almost 'state of the nation' style. Pictured with a bunch of Neuropsychology and Psychology colleagues

The narrow way we do formal meetings & conferences- an agenda to work through, or a panel who do the talking, a few min of Q&A. So many views go unheard. Myron Rogers says “the process you use to get to the future is the future you get”. We need more creative ways to enable richer participation.

Fantastic opportunity for someone pursuing a career in clinical neuropsychology! 👀👇

Was pleased to discuss challenges adjusting to life changing diagnoses of PSP and CBD and all things thoughts and feelings today at PSPA Ireland information event at Tallaght University Hospital with colleagues from Neurology, Physiotherapy and Social Work. Some great (and challenging) chats.

Ah yes. The Saturday evening of a bank holiday weekend 🙌 😎

Very pleased to be part of this day arranged by the PSPA Ireland next week with colleagues focussing on adjusting to diagnoses of PSP and CBS. There's so much to say, hopefully can do it some justice. pspaireland.ie/2025/04/09/p...

This is absolutely calling it what it is . www.thejournal.ie/readme/dubli...

Sunday. Usually a quiet day for me. Stay in bed a little late, walk into town to buy fruit, maybe see family, read my books, listen to music, cook, watch a movie. Is it the first or last day of the week?

Great to hear these issues being highlighted. Let's hope this investment actually happens this time. The north Georgian core should be spectacular. Schemes like the Living City Initiative although positive have not fully worked in this area.

Lovely day for talking about dementia among people with intellectual disabilities, and the various roles for psychologists in particular, with future clincal psychologists at University of Limerick

Just got my car insurance cut to less than one-third of the automatic renewal quote by going to another company and, while obviously pleased, I'm absolutely raging that the discrepancy is huge. The product is pretty comparable with a better excess. Wtf???

What's a good post holiday Sunday night movie? Not too intellectually demanding but very good. Maybe it's time to rewatch Tea With Mussolini.

Now playing…what an incredible artist. Rest in Peace Roberta Flack ❤️

Was so pleased to put the 'put of office' notification on yesterday but why have I been awake since 5am today? (Silly answers only please)

For #brainawareness2025 , join me on Sat March 15th for a Walking Tour of Dublin of Irish Neuroscience Pioneers! Tickets are Free but limited! @naiireland @NeuroscienceIRL www.eventbrite.ie/e/irish-neur...

I find the American obsession with SNL baffling. I love the idea and I like a lot of their cast members over the years but i rarely find it funny. Except for that Liza Minnelli turns on a lamp clip. That's gas.

We only need a few hundred more signatures, so share, share, share people ☺️
