Hello friends,

This Thursday Isabella Rebasso volunteered to present a review of literature on anger. An excellent idea, to sharpen our understanding of this emotion.

Also, I would like to call for a new rubric in our meetings. Let’s call it IRIS: “I Read something Interesting that I would like to Share”. The idea is to present one/two slides on something you read recently and that you would like to share. Can be anything, really. We can briefly present these (just a few minutes), and exchange some thoughts on it. I think this will be a good way to bridge the vast amounts of literature each of us has to deal with. If each time a few of us submit something, then we can reserve about 30 minutes this, spending the last hour on a presentation. If you have something, please prepare 1 or 2 .pptx slides and send them to me before the meeting.  

Kind regards,
