Meet the Keynoters   Saul Shiffman, PhD, is a world-renowned researcher in the fields of behavior change and relapse, self-management and self-control, field research methodology, statistical analysis, and addiction and dependence. Since 1991, he has been a professor in the departments of psychology and pharmaceutical science at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Shiffman has taught in the departments of psychology and psychiatry and behavioral medicine at various universities, including the University of South Florida, the University of Washington, and the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Shiffman has authored or co-authored over 300 published papers on a variety of topics related to psychopharmacology, substance abuse, dependence, relapse, coping, and computerized assessments of behavior, and has presented widely in medical and scientific forums. A fellow of numerous professional societies (including APA Divisions 28 and 50), Dr. Shiffman was awarded the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco's Ovid Ferno Award for "ground-breaking advances in clinical research."   Edith V. Sullivan, PhD, is professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine and a neuropsychologist who has pioneered the study of alcoholism-related brain injury on selective cognitive and motor function. She is the recipient of a Senior Scientist Research and Mentorship Award, a grant for international collaborations on alcoholism research, and an NIAAA MERIT award for studies of neural circuitry modification in alcoholism focused on frontocerebellar systems. Dr. Sullivan is a recipient of the Research Society on Alcoholism Distinguished Researcher Award and is author of more than 250 peer-reviewed papers and numerous chapters and reviews.

Call for Proposals   The Committee has issued a call for proposals for Breakout Sessions and Posters. A few spots are still left on the schedule. Contact a committee member (below) for more details. Pre-Conference Workshops   "Conducting Neuroimaging Studies from a Neuropsychologist's Perspective" Integrating neuroimaging techniques with neuropsychological and other neurobehavioral methods is often a powerful approach in human studies. Many applicants underappreciate the critical processes that enable a) identification of appropriate team members, b) building cohesion among members, and c) sustaining individual commitment and engagement throughout the project. Furthermore, psychologists without neuroimaging expertise often fail to fully utilize the expertise of their collaborators and thus struggle to communicate the import of their data. Building on existing literature and her own experiences, Dr. Mattson's workshop focuses on essential steps in defining effective, productive and innovative teams from the perspective of "non-imagers." Presenter: Sarah Mattson, PhD (Pre-Registration Required) About the Venue   The beautiful W Hotel in Midtown Atlanta will be the venue for our First Annual Conference. The hotel is located in the heart of Midtown and is local to public transportation. Room rates are $159 per night. Reserve your room now!

[DIV28SUPER] DEALING WITH CRITICISM BY DIGGING DEEPER

My latest blog post is titled:

DEALING WITH CRITICISM BY DIGGING DEEPER


http://drjeffreyrubin.wordpress.com/2013/01/12/dealing-with-criticism-by-digging-deeper/ 


When we are criticized, we often jump on the easiest explanation for the problem. This post teaches us that there are times when we would be wise to dig a little deeper and how to go about doing this.

I hope you find it helpful,

Jeff
