She and her group has drawn tens of thousands of neurons by now, from various scientific studies in many different environmental situations, capturing how individual neurons change with changing environment. 🔬

When he was asked to write a fun fact about himself, he spent a lot of time and came out empty-handed. The crazy thing is that he considers himself a fun person! 😎

Now @DrVLeong, Deputy director of CLIC defines the key aspect of flexibility and how can we build resilience to stress. This is applicable for all stages of life and we should continue to research these via CLIC and other wide initiatives.
The Cambridge-NTU CLIC Launch Event is happening TODAY! We are eagerly anticipating the Public Lecture on lifelong learning by @BJSahakian and Prof Trevor Robbins, as well as talks by @DrVLeong and Prof David Hung. The countdown begins!

Trevor Robbins explaining cognitive flexibility in the launching of the CLIC @NTU_MIND @Cambridge_Uni initiative of Lifelong Learning. I am so glad this is recorded so I can nick this 5 mins for my cognitive control lectures! @CambPsych
I will be contributing to the CLIC too.

What a brilliant program of joint research @NTUsg and @Cambridge_Uni have embarked upon! Researching how to increase our learning capability and agility. With pace of change blistering and lives extended, this is critical work for all of our societies. 👏🎉 to the project team.
Her Excellency Ms Kara Owen @karaowen, CMG CVO British High Commissioner to Singapore, eloquently explains how this new research programme builds the #SGUKPartnership through common vested interests in lifelong learning. She wishes the CLIC all the best! #CLICLaunchEvent
We now switch gears to the Public Lecture delivered by Barbara Sahakian (@BJSahakian) and Trevor Robbins from @Cambridge_Uni on "Boosting cognition, creativity and wellbeing through lifelong learning"
#CLICLaunchEvent
And it is official! CLIC has been launched! Congratulations to @Cambridge_Uni and @NTUsg and best wishes to all the CLIC Investigators on your journey ahead!
