YAY!!
We were honored to host @drkoraly.bsky.social at the Boys Town Institute for Human Neuroscience last week!
Her work on behavioral inhibition and early anxiety offers insight into how children navigate real-world social settings.
CANDY Lab is deeply grateful for her time, wisdom, and mentorship 💙🧠

YAY!!
Absolutely thrilled for the opportunity to speak with youth about stress and brain development! 🤩
✨Today, CANDY Lab members @giorgia-picci.bsky.social and @sumedhamishra.bsky.social partnered with 100 Black Men of Omaha to lead a youth session on stress, brain development, and mental health! 🧠🤓🍭

The Cognitive Affective NeuroDevelopment in Youth (CANDY) Lab is now on Bluesky! 🎉🍬
Dr. @giorgia-picci.bsky.social directs the CANDY Lab in IHN at Boys Town. Her work broadly focuses on uncovering neurobiological mechanisms linking early life adversity and mental health outcomes during adolescence.

Influencers recommend a high-protein diet. But see this post by Dr. Topol.
“Habitual or chronic high protein intake is associated with epidemiological evidence of harm, and, at high doses, the studies I reviewed raise the concern about pro-inflammatory effects and increasing cardiovascular risk...”

Excited to share that my TEDx talk is finally available online. I loved sharing what the science shows us: that it's time to reframe adolescence - from problem to ✨ potential ✨ 1/

✨ New paper ✨ in JAMA Pediatrics! We discuss how understanding the timing ⏰ of stressful events relative to neurodevelopment can help us better identify risk factors (looking backward) and predict future psychopathology (looking forward) at the individual level
