Boston strong sends it love. Felt on Alex's Place, Tisch Library Roof.

It's an illustration of the power of the biopsychosocial approach. All the constitutive elements must be considered but weighted as appropriate. We can only do this by empathic understanding, working collaboratively with the person in distress and by examining our own assumptions

Have you ever wondered how our brains comprehend real-world events…like making tea? Find out in Gina's new review in Topics in #CogSci: “Tea With Milk? A Hierarchical Generative Framework of Sequential Event Comprehension” #Bayesian #PredictiveCoding doi.org/10.1111/tops.1…

Thanks for having us and for the great questions!
