Happy to share my new review article on "Affective Immunology", which comments on what can be considered an emerging sub-field, informed by the amazing legacy of Jan Kiecolt-Glaser in #PNI, and future directions for the field. It was a lot of fun to write! authors.elsevier.com/c/1ig~G…
So, I was excited about our work on the link between psychological stress and dementia, and tried to connect with more folks on @LinkedIn. But now I am locked out of my account, with no customer service. Please help. :( theconversation.com/chronic-… via @ConversationUS

I was starting my first project at Pitt when COVID happened. We pivoted to remote collection, including dried blood spots for inflammation; here we show this method is feasible, reliable, and valid in older adults. Could be especially useful for hard-to-reach populations in PNI!

Placebo effects are among the most important effects in medicine. They provide a window into the self-healing potential of the mind and brain, and make it challenging to isolate the effects of active treatments like drugs and devices.
Please join us for a free #NIMH -sponsored webinar on the Science of Placebo – 12 - 4 pm EST on July 11-12.

Happy to see #PNIRS2024 kicking off with some excellent aging-related programming, related to dietary factors and how they relate to cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease risk. And with a lovely combination of animal-model and human research! #healthyaging #PsychoNeuroImmology

New paper on links between child empthy and health led by @PennStateBBH Hannah Schreier, with BBH graduate students Aishwarya Ganguli and @cate_givens, and @pennstateHDFS Damon Jones. It was fun to help with this fascinating and important work!
Children who report being more empathetic are more likely to show signs of poorer health in the face of more interparental conflict, according to a new study led by researchers in @pennstatehhd.
