Choosing to go by train/ferry to #Flux2025 I emitted SEVEN times less C02 compared to a plane trip.

Air travel is one of the largest contributors to the carbon footprint of research. Researchers, universities and conferences have the responsabilities to create more sustainable alternatives.

Had a great time at SRIP conference this week in Liverpool. Learned a lot about perinatal mental health, saw inspiring talks, was able to present my own work and met many other researchers. It was a success, thanks for organizing and having me @thesrip.bsky.social!

It was great to be part of a symposium at @escaponline.bsky.social on Parental Adversity in the Perinatal Period. I shared a project of my (almost-finished) PhD on how infant crying links to child behavioral problems and maternal trauma and attachment. Thanks for having me! #ESCAP2025

Attended my first PhD conference โ€œCognitive Futures in The Arts and Humanitiesโ€ where I got to present my poster titled โ€œDo we appreciate ambiguity in art?โ€. Had the opportunity to travel to Sicily, bond with my supervisor, Francesco Walker, eat amazing food, and make some great connections!

Searching for someone doing longitudinal EEG/MEG study for a symposium on the dynamics between brain and cognition during development.

Please feel free to send papers/people my way (also might be interested if you use other techniques or in aging).
