Excited to share my new preprint. My work focuses on solitude, but I am not one to advocate for a "solitude theory"; psych has too many theories so one less would be good. So, what I did the past 2 yrs is talking to people, reading work outside of my literature, essentially to shop for a framework 🧵

What if thinking doesn’t begin in the brain, but in the ceaseless labour of our cells? Today’s essay rethinks the question of how we become minds, arguing that cognition begins not in the mind but in the collective processes that keep a body alive @annaciaunica.bsky.social

Contemplating the world requires a body, and a body requires an immune system: the rungs of life create the stuff of thought

I am traveling for another talk and lab visit this week. My favorite thing staying in hotels is playing Cartoon Network while I finish preparing my talk 🤓💻
This is also the first time I brought my portable screen, and love it! Although having it out while waiting at the airport got a few stares 😅

I know there are a lot of worse things in other parts of the world but what is happening in Vietnam breaks my heart. My family in the South is safe but Northern and Central regions are facing flooding and landslides.

I spent the last week working on a grant application. For the part where you have to write about your awesomeness, it was a roller coaster of self-esteem: I went between “I am not cut out for this!” and “hey maybe I am not that bad”. Overall, it was a pretty self-affirming experience. I am enough.
