Our article "The influence of glucose administration on stress reactivity and long-term memory in adult men and women" is now published #OpenAcess in #Psychoneuroendocrinology @ispne.bsky.social While glucose increased cortisol stress reactivity, it did not influence memory of a stressful episode.

One of our papers got accepted today and one received a revise and resubmit - forwarding the mails to my co-authors feels like wrapping up Christmas gifts 😄

For the past few years, I "cleaned up" my laptop before entering a new year, which includes extensive files archiving and deleting. Target #1 is my Downloads folder - but to my own surprise, I only got 273 items stored there. It seems I've finally found a good routine for managing downloads 💪

If you've had any tough days during #AcWriMo, I highly recommend adopting Taika Waititi's expansive classification system for writing. Another handy tip from the academia / writing / research meme stash. #PhDchat #academicsky #academicchatter #highered

Some revisions take their time and require quite some additional analyses, like the one I received some time ago. The comments of the reviewers were super constructive and helpful, so it totally payed off to incorporate them (and asking for a double extension of the deadline)👇🏻 #AcademicChatter

Arrows are tricky. For us, as the designer of the visual, it will be super clear what it means. But for someone looking at our visual for the first time, it can be highly ambiguous. Depending on the reader, the same arrow can mean sequence, zoom, range, label, movement,... 1/2

I’m teaching an #RBootcamp this weekend, an intro to R for beginners. Love that the Fachschaft in Konstanz shared some fab #RStats stickers with us, but I will hopefully work against the message, which reads “I can't do/take it anymore.”

In seahorses, males are the ones to bear offspring. But how does this work? A research team led by #UniKonstanz evolutionary biologist Axel Meyer examined the cellular basis for "male pregnancy". Surprisingly, androgens (male sexual hormones) play a central role. Full story: https://t1p.de/auvcl
