So, I've been inspired by my brilliant daughter to begin a blog. She's fabulous at blogging (more on this later) and seems to have a real gift of the gab. Going on the notion that genes are at least partly responsible, we'll see how I do in comparison.
By way of introduction, I'm a graduate student in the nth year of my PhD (we don't discuss the length of this process) and my main interest is brain/behaviour relationships. You could argue that everything about us is a brain/behaviour relationship but that idea is not too popular in this age of cognitive psychology, neuroscience and social networking (more on this later too).
I'm also a mother to three great adult kids (AC, HL and IM). They are the light of my life and they've begun to provide me with grandchildren, a baby girl and a baby boy affectionately referred to as Beanie and Budsie. And I'm step-mum to three more great kids MM, TO and EM. And wife to their great Dad FJR, known affectionately by me as 'Mr. Man'. Mr. Man is French Canadian and gorgeous in a blue-eyed, silver haired, physically fit around 50 kind of way (more on this later too). I can sense all of those kids covering their ears from here!
Following will be the trials, tribulations and little triumphs of the dissertation process from the perspective of a granny who loves brains. We'll see where it takes me!
