Happy Halloween! Meet evil doctors from Park Lab: Professor McGonagall, Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, Dr. Valerie Kinbott, Dr. Bill Nye, and Dr. Pepper!

So glad to have the Vanderbilt family assembled @srp_science! Not everyone here but the spirit was all! Photoshop work preparing :) #SRP2024

The lovely Park Lab group at #SRP2024 @srp_science We all enjoyed the conference so much🥳👏😍

Update: We will meet around 8 pm instead!

We are so looking forward to SRP in Montréal this week! Vanderbilt alumni, please join us on Thursday night (10/17) to take a Vanderbilt-affiliated SRP photo at around 8:30 pm. Please share with other Vanderbilt-affiliated individuals!

These results show that the regulation of self-other boundaries in response to impending social threats may be maladaptive in individuals with schizophrenia (3/3).

In individuals with schizophrenia, a shallower peripersonal space (PPS) slope was associated with delusion, persecution, negative symptoms, and loneliness but not in controls (2/3).

Using a visual-tactile response-time (RT) experiment in immersive virtual reality (VR), we found that the perceived social threat posed in the avatars sharpened the self-boundary in controls but not in individuals with schizophrenia (1/3).

We are thrilled to share our new paper, "Self-other Boundary under Social Threat in Schizophrenia," at Schizophrenia Research🥳. Read the article here:

On this week's #UndertheCortex: @MichalHajduk, Sohee Park, and Amy Pinkham discuss their new paper in Clinical, "#Paranoia: From Passive Social-Threat Perception to Misattunement in #SocialInteraction" #clinicalscience

So happy that this podcast about our recent paper with @ParkLab2 @Noahsasson and Amy Pinkham is out #paranoia #synchrony #interactions

Also special s/o to co-authors: HyeonSeung Lee, and Kathryn Babbitt and of course none of it would be possible without the wonderful mentorship and guidance of Dr. Sohee Park 🪇🎈🎉🪅🥳🎀🙌

We are very excited to announce that our Post-Bach RA and lab manager Michael Sangimino recently got his first, first-author manuscript published as a Short Communication in Psychiatry Research: https://t.co/DWbIT1cW1Q 🥳🎈🎉

🚨New study led by @JessicaFattal‼️ In the Philadelphia Neurodevelopmental Cohort, motor abnormalities that are sustained over development may be particularly influential for psychotic-like experiences @SchizBulletin https://t.co/wMUkmLlHHN

The Park lab group @SIRSGlobal in Florence, Italy, two weeks ago!😍Our 6th-year graduate student, Hyeon-Seung Lee, successfully represented @baxter_tatiana on her symposium presentation, "Embodiment of Loneliness and Self-Disturbances in the Schizophrenia-Spectrum". #SIRS2024

Two weeks after #SIRS2024, still feeling proud of our lab members, Hyeon-Seung Lee, @julialebovitz @ThirdCultureKat @Guiyunlai, who successfully presented their work @SIRSGlobal in Florence, Italy! 👏👏😍😍🥳🥳

Article alert!!! I am super proud that our new article linking #paranoia #biobehavioralsynchrony and #socialinteractions is finally published in CPS https://t.co/wJ3ryCnw0c @ParkLab2 Amy Pinkham, and @Noahsasson thank for collaboration.
