People with lived experience are not distinct from our research; they are us, our students, our team members and we need them at the table to bridge the gaps that limit our ability to improve the mental health of each individual 🧠 @camhkcni.bsky.social

Children whose brain structure more closely resembles their parent's psychosis-related brain patterns are more likely to develop psychiatric symptoms themselves, suggesting personalized, family-based brain comparisons could help predict who is most at risk for developing psychotic disorders.

AI is turning research into a scientific monoculture - Communications Psychology
The rush to study generative AI is producing a feedback loop of topical and methodological convergence, flattening scientific imagination and crowding out the pluralism needed to keep research adaptive, resilient, and intellectually generative.
