Does reward-seeking behaviour differ between individuals with OCD and problem gambling? YES! 🧠🎲
@szkshnsk, in collaboration with @Mon_Bio_Imaging used computational psychiatry to elucidate the underlying brain processes for these mental disorders.

Happy International Women's Day! 👩🏻🔬🌏
There can be a lot of tokenistic messaging around IWD. While we celebrate the incredible achievements of women at BrainPark, we also challenge you to reflect on the myriad of ways women uphold their families, workplaces, and communities. 💚
