Happy to share our preprint! We've developed a technology for interoceptive awareness training, combining principles of biofeedback and sensory supplementation. Our study shows the advantages of this method over traditional visual feedback. @BCT_Inst

Ever been curious what the actual empirical evidence is supporting predictive processing models? In this new paper, we provide a thorough review of the empirical status of predictive coding and active inference models at the cognitive and neural level:

Stop romanticizing ISIS and the massacre of thousands of babies, children, women and men by Hamas - a radical Islam terrorist organization that explicitly writes in its charter its main goal is to destroy Israel and kill al the Jews. Wake up and smell the roses - it's ISIS, not

Yes, but I am the type of kid who 10 years after PhD in Medicine and 3 years after MS in Psychology starts third and maybe not the last ulpan and also third and hopefully the last medical specialization training this September.
If you were the type of kid that got excited to buy school supplies at the end of each summer I regret to inform you that you have a PhD now.

Mandatory, “one-size fits-all” #mindfulness programs, crammed into busy school days, are unlikely to help #MentalHealth in students. While some versions of #mindfulness and #meditation will help SOME, no version will help ALL, and some versions may actually harm.
MYRIAD – a Wellcome-funded study – found mindfulness in schools doesn’t improve mental health in early teens. While some may view this negatively, it proves the value of high-quality research in advancing mental health science. @WillemKuyken @UniofOxford

Encouraging: we are just starting to target interoception in mental health disorders, but a systematic review already shows some gains.
