Tiny Perfusion Letter #767

Tiny Perfusion Letter

Whenever someone says the numbers “7-6-7” in my native language (in Flemish - the way you’re supposed to speak Dutch… 🤭 😊 - “zeven-zes-zeven”), a little bout of nostalgia flares up. It was the area code for the town I grew up in, in Belgium.

Turns out, feeling nostalgic is actually a good thing. People who feel more nostalgic, may be more motivated to strengthen and maintain long-term relationships than those who aren’t. Awesome!

Now, back to (other) science!
