Oh, #Bordeaux...! The city where conference rooms have temperatures starting at 30°C and traffic lights are merely a suggestion... In any case, I've seen a lot of interesting behavioral neuroscience (rats still rule!) and we had a great symposium. Thank you all for that! Au revoir! #EBBS2025

Arrived in #Bordeaux this evening for #EBBS2025! I can assure you all science here will be hot off the press... 🔥🥵 Please join our symposium on Monday at 14:30 in Amphi E! Avoidance! Sex differences!(?)! with @dabrowska-lab.bsky.social, @sydneytrask.bsky.social & Raul Andero

Hi Bluesky, quick question. Which passive avoidance setup for rats do you like best? 🐀 Thanks!

And another one by @albalm.bsky.social ! 🤩 Recommended reading 💯 if you want to up your game and integrate measurements of fear, avoidance, generalization and extinction (in rodents)!

Behold Laura Vercammen's (scientific) firstborn 🐣! What a beautiful baby ☺️. Laura looked at the impact of dopamine receptor blockade on avoidance acquisition. @leuvenbrainins.bsky.social @biopsylbp.bsky.social doi.org/10.1016/j.nl...

After a weekend full of #ScicComm, I was delighted to find a letter from @bbrfoundation.bsky.social in my mailbox to inform me that my YI grant was selected for their Research Partners Program! Yours truly, from now on aka the "Ellen Schapiro & Gerald Axelbaum Investigator"

Dit weekend weer héél wat kinderhoofdjes gevuld over "bang zijn"! 😱🧠 Thanks to all the children (and their parents) for taking 600 s to come and listen to one of my lectures at the Psychology Department or in the central KU Leuven kids hub!!! 🙏🏻 @leuvenbrainins.bsky.social

KU Leuven, don't worry about your 600th birthday 🎂, just celebrate 😉! Great 600-s lecture, @filipraes.bsky.social!

Our University turns 600!! 🎂 (For once, I'll continue in Dutch, sorry!) Kom dit weekend mee vieren in Leuven! Je vindt alle info - ook over mijn kinderlezing die ik 4(!) keer geef - via kuleuven.be/600jaar/programma/600-secondenlezingen-voor-jong-en-oud. Tot dan! #SciComm #ForChildren

She did it! 🥳 (Of course she did!). Very proud of you, @albalm.bsky.social, PhD! Again a pleasure to supervise such an excellent young researcher together with @tombeckers.bsky.social ☺️.

Sunday was Science Day! Just there as a visitor this edition 🙂. Thanks to all the young and enthusiastic researchers for educating and entertaining my children! #DVDW #DVDW2024
