December 2024
Department of Radiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA.
Objectives: Aneurysm wall enhancement (AWE) on high-resolution contrast-enhanced vessel wall MRI (VWMRI) is an emerging biomarker for intracranial aneurysms (IAs) stability. Quantification methods of AWE in the literature, however, are variable. We aimed to determine the optimal post-contrast timing to quantify AWE in both saccular and fusiform IAs.

Emotion
June 2024
Department of Psychology, University of Toronto.
Empathy helps us navigate social interactions and promotes prosocial behaviors like caregiving and helping. Here, we explored whether awe, a key self-transcendent and epistemic emotion, could encourage greater empathy across seven diverse student and community samples collected between 2020 and 2022. Empathy is a multifaceted construct; thus, we assessed performance on a range of empathy measures including perspective taking accuracy (Study 2), empathic accuracy (Study 3; preregistered), emotion contagion and compassion (Study 4).

Background: Metastatic cancer is often experienced by patients as a death sentence. At the same time, translational scientists approach metastasis also as an interesting phenomenon that they try to understand and prevent. These two sides of the same coin do not mask the considerable gap that exists between the laboratory world of scientists and the life world of patients.
