Excited to share I’ll be pursuing my PhD in Clinical Psychology with @GregStrauss8 at the University of Georgia to study emotion regulation and negative symptoms in schizophrenia and high-risk youth using 🧠and📲. Very honored to have also received UGA’s Presidential Fellowship!

We have been helping IMGs match in Neurosurgery for the last 16 years in our post doc program @TJUHNeurosurg with a hit rate of 100%! This recent publication by our superstar post doc @Joannaroy99 shows that : 1-IMGs that match into neurosurgery demonstrate higher publication counts and greater research effort compared to U.S medical graduates 2-The proportion of high-effort publications relative to total publication output did not differ among both groups

Study Finds Mental Health Benefit to One-Week Social Media Break - The New York Times - ... a constructive social role. Dr. John Torous, an associate professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and a co-author of the study, said ... - ift.tt/d6SX9ZB

One week off social media can make a real impact. A new study led by @johntorousmd at BIDMC found young adults saw notable drops in anxiety, depression and insomnia after just 7 days 📉📱 Discover why even a short digital break can make a big difference. npr.org/2025/11/25/nx-s1-561…

Problematic use of social media was associated with worse measures of mental health in this study; a 1-week social media detox reduced short term symptoms of anxiety by 16%, depression by 5%, and insomnia by 15%. ja.ma/4pwP8J3

🚨 LANDMARK STUDY ALERT The largest, multicenter, assessor-blinded, RCT of antipsychotic efficacy was just published this week. 7 arms. 7 antipsychotics. 3000 patients. » All antipsychotics ↓ symptoms by 50% in 6 weeks » Olanzapine, risperidone > the rest

AI will eventually excel in mental health, but it may not be in therapy; instead, it may be in interpreting data that we currently underutilize in care, such as digital phenotyping. Led by Matt Flathers on our team, we used mindLAMP smartphone data w/ LLMs mentalhealth.bmj.com/content…

"AI Psychosis Is Rarely Psychosis at All: A wave of AI users presenting in states of psychological distress gave birth to an unofficial diagnostic label. Experts say it’s neither accurate nor needed...." New reporting in @WIRED gets it right: wired.com/story/ai-psychosis…

In our latest publication @KatherineHack15 @JohnTorousMD our findings suggest that with modest training, older adults can engage with digital tools like mindLAMP, helping to bridge the digital divide in mental health care that exist within this population. #digitaltools #olderadults 🔗sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

In our official publication in the Journal of Affective Disorders, we show that hybrid care (clinician mindLAMP digital navigator) led to greater reductions in depression & anxiety than primary care alone. @JohnTorousMD @alexdhima #digitalclinic 🔗sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
