Brain information continues to mushroom:

Many excellent brain blogs keep all of us posted on these interesting neuroscience developments. Alisa Miller has reviewed and published an inclusive summary "101 Fascinating Brain Blogs" over at the Online Educational Database [OEDb] for our mutual use and Holiday reading. 

Included are some of my old friends from Furious Seasons, to Mind Hacks.

This superior list includes many of the blogs I have listed here at CorePsychBlog, and many new resources as well. It looks like Alisa's careful review will keep those of us interested in the evolution of brain science with many pages to read over into the next year!

Naturally I am happy to announce as a side bar that CorePsychBlog made the list, #73, but who's checking?

More this weekend on a recent peer-reviewed study that confirms very clearly what I have been writing about all along: Many are not asking the questions effectively in the office – the complexity of the mind finds little solace in the oversimplification that swims downstream from reductionistic labels.

More later – do pop over and take a look at this excellent review.

    Gianna,
    Great postings you have over there at your site – it’s so useful to see reports from the personal front on the short sightedness of the bipolar name calling so prevalent in the psych offices today.

    I see this problem of reductionistic thinking all the time, and just back from a very interesting psych/pharmaceutical meeting, it seems that some of my colleagues are coming around to similar conclusions, stated quite openly at an advisory board meeting for a very interesting new product – psych med.

    My point, as you know from these posts is that all of this psych diagnosis is more than simply brain by itself, but brain and body and environment – and the complexity is so unbelievable it is often discounted.

    Anyway, too early in the morning to get on my soapbox..

    Alisa Miller question? I don’t know, just an excellent job – and congrats to you as well…

    I do love your site – very likely will be moving to clean up this site with a very good WordPress site early this year,

    Well done! Have a super holiday season… looks like you are not far away in NC, I’m just back from Raleigh at a meeting over near Duke.

    Please stay in touch, would be interested to further discuss your blogging evolution,
    Chuck

    I am thrilled to have learned about this list via Gianna, who was part of it. Congratulations to yourself and everyone included on it!

    It thrills me to learn about new things, so this list is a great gift. I look forward to perusing it and the links therein.

    Hi Charles,
    I’ve been reading you off and on and lately ON…as I finally got you on a feed…in any case I wouldn’t have known about this list had you not directed me and then went on to be completely shocked to find myself there.

    I’m curious, who is Alisa Miller? The list is obviously carefully thought out and there are many blogs I’m familiar with and several I read daily.

    I looked up Alisa Miller and found an Alisa Miller who is CEO of PRI but I’m assuming this is another one?

    Anyway thanks for alerting me to the list and congrats to you and me!!
