Well folks, I've finally been made legitimate.
No, I haven't received my doctorate yet (that won't be happening for awhile!) Instead my rogue bastardized blogging days are over - I've been made an official Nature Publishing Group blogger, writing for the Nature Education site <http://www.nature.com/scitable> Scitable. I'll be blogging on all things brain and biology on the psychology group blog, <http://www.nature.com/scitable/blog/mind-read> Mind Read, with the fantastic Jordan Gaines of <http://www.gainesonbrains.com/> Gaines, on Brains. We'll be posting weekly on the latest nerdy neuro papers and fascinating psychological phenomena - think similar Brain Study content but now on a legitimate platform.
As always though, Brain Study is dearest to my blogging heart, and I'll be sure to post Mind Read pieces here, as well as trying out slightly "edgier" content perhaps not suitable for the corporate science blogosphere.
My first post is on one of my personal favorite topics, synesthesia, exploring <http://www.nature.com/scitable/blog/mind-read/hearing_touching_and_tasting_in> Hearing, Touching and Tasting in Color. A sneak-peek with some insight into my own form is below:
I don't know about you, but to me Wednesday is sun-shiney yellow. Tuesday is hunter green, Thursday purple-ish blue and Friday a deep red. Monday is white, a blank slate and a chance for a new week, whereas Saturday is sparkly black. Sunday is gray, the depressing slouch towards the beginning of the work-week, but also a convenient mix of Saturday and Monday.
This color-word association is not a figment of my imagination or an indication that I'm going crazy, but is instead a recognized neuropsychological phenomenon called synesthesia.
So please check out the new site, and let me know what you think!
