@denisejcai.bsky.socialThank you to panelists @jngai58.bsky.social, Jennifer Luray, Megan Jones Bell & Devika Bhushan for a great discussion. I learned so much from each panelist about how the different parts of the system have to come together to improve people's lives. I left the Summit reminded why I do what I do ✨
@denisejcai.bsky.socialAs a researcher studying the brain, this pathway intertwines my professional and personal lives. I study how experiences become lasting memories, especially after trauma, and have struggled with anxiety and PTSD for most of adulthood, until therapy and medication helped me manage these challenges.
@denisejcai.bsky.socialIt was an honor and a joy to moderate the Discovery to Impact Panel at @onemindorg.bsky.social's Summit on the Future of Mental Health Research. We talked about the systems, partnerships, and support needed to translate courageous science into meaningful public impact.

@denisejcai.bsky.socialThank you, @storycollider.bsky.social, for the space to share a very personal story that intersects my work as a neuroscientist and my personal life with my family. It was eye-opening and surprisingly healing to view my own experience through the lens of a scientist studying trauma ❤️🩹 🧠
@storycollider.bsky.socialReposted by @denisejcai.bsky.socialSometimes healing isn’t about forgetting what happened. It’s about finally putting down what you’ve been carrying. 🕊️✨
