Congratulations to Dr. Paul Hamilton and Dr. Justin Feinstein for being named as 2015 American College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ACNP) Travel Awardees! They were two of 58 recipients from a competitive and talented pool of 338 applicants, the highest and most diverse in ACNP's history.

This accomplishment provides them with a number of benefits for the upcoming December meeting in Hollywood, Florida, including registration, lodging, round-trip airfare, an ACNP mentor, a special travel awardee reception and poster session and an invitation to attend the meeting for the next four years.

Today LIBR welcomed nearly 40 8th grade students from the Tech Trek Tulsa STEM camp at The University of Tulsa for a hands-on neuroscience experience. The girls rotated through different "stations" to hear about careers in neuropsychiatric research, tour our neuroimaging facilities, participate in a psychophysiology demonstration and learn about neuroanatomy and processing fMRI data.

Many thanks to Dr. Robin Aupperle for her planning and involvement in the event. We greatly enjoyed hosting such a fun, smart and science-loving group!

The Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM) conference is being held in Honolulu, Hawaii from June 14-18th, 2015. This meeting is fully-dedicated to research studying normal and abnormal brain function and organization. 

LIBR is excited to have the largest ever presence at the meeting, with 25 presentations with LIBR affiliations. To read the research abstracts, click here and search for Tulsa or Laureate Institute in the text field.

LIBR and Family & Children's Services (FCS) joined forces on Friday, May 29th in Tulsa for our 1st annual BBQ event. Thank you to all of the staff and clients who braved the downpour this afternoon to enjoy lunch with us. We look forward to continuing to develop our relationship with FCS, a leading provider of behavioral health care and family services for people of all ages in Tulsa and surrounding communities.
