Bots have made their way to Prolific experiments. Our lab has stopped online testing of adults entirely now for this reason - we want to know if what we study is real. Probably data collected 2-3 years ago are ok, but moving forward we just can't know. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
Illustrated promotional graphic for a guest blog titled Learning to Let Good Be Enough. The design shows a cartoon figure wearing a Good Job badge alongside a photograph of guest blogger Emily Spencer, a PhD student at University College London. The background features a calm indoor scene with neutral tones and yellow branding consistent with Dementia Researcher visual identity.

Iβm not sure how to tag this to find the target audience, but Iβm a late diagnosed autistic woman trying to navigate burnout and rediscover myself. These two books have been helpful to me; what other books on this subject am I missing? #booksky #currentlyreading #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent
Rather than relying on billionaires to give, I would rather have a system where there are no billionaires.
A promotional blog graphic with the title Academic overwhelm and the message You are not the only one displayed beside progress bars representing workload. The image includes a portrait of Dr Becky Carlyle, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, alongside Dementia Researcher branding.
Academic life can be brilliant & exhausting! Deadlines stack up. Teaching prep takes longer than expected. Emails multiply.
Dr Becky Carlyle shares her experience of academic overwhelm & reminds us that feeling stretched doesn't mean you're failing. It means you are human.
