Somehow missed that NSFGRFP will no longer consider clinical psychology students (regardless of the focus of the project?). Any recommendations for alternative funding mechanisms for post-bacc and early doctoral students? Want to create a list for our postbaccs and PhD students #AcademicSky

So exhausting..

The first of our openings has posted. This search is for an associate or full professor with tenure who’s interested in succeeding me as Director of Clinical Training. Research area is open. jobs.colostate.edu/postings/165...

Relatedly, we will have two searches for new faculty in the Psychological Clinical Science Program this fall - one at the Assistant Professor level and another at Associate or Full Professor level. Ads forthcoming.

The only socially acceptable position here regarding AI is that it's total crap and will never improve. Completely divorced from reality. But Blueskyers don't want to face reality. I understand that many feel threatened by AI, but denialism and uninformed attacks on experts are counterproductive.

reality check 🤔😕😢@realitycheck.bsky.social · last yr.

I'm not sure AI is good for humanity. I think it could very well be catastrophic. But it's useful, for many tasks, and getting better. It's not going away, much as we might like it to. And the longer we Blueskyers disparage it, the longer we exclude ourselves from the conversation.

Who says post publication peer review can't work. The first post pub review is in on our paper. Thanks, Joann!

My NIH diversity supplement was reinstated! 🥳 This is not the time to keep quiet or feel defeated by this administration. This is the time to raise hell 🔥 and be heard ✊🏽

Hopecore: a friend of mine at UCCS said her PI had her NIAAA grant focused on LGBTQ+ youth reinstated today. Heeeeellls yessss!!!

“Historically, no one lived past age 35” "I’ve heard *so* many versions of this claim, including recently from a menopause doctor (implying menopause is not “natural” because noone lived long enough to go through it). Every time someone states this “fact,” a demographer loses a piece of their soul"

There Were Still Old People When Life Expectancy Was 35.

A demography myth that won't die

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

I thought my job as Senator was to try to keep my constituents alive.

Heartbroken for my colleague @kgamarel.bsky.social After decades of NIH support, HIV research network gets funding back—but Kristi's study on trans youth of color is singled out & cut Essential research for most vulnerable—lost 🙏 Powerful reporting @stephaniemlee.bsky.social in @chronicle.com

An NIH Grant Is Restored, With a Catch: Cut a Study on Trans Youth

HIV scientists were given a choice: eliminate a study of transgender youth or lose a shot to recover a larger series of grants. They chose the former.

pulling a critique of the bell curve from a university library but not the bell curve is as concise a way i can think of to describe the goal of the speech discourse in the past 15 years

You’re allowed to argue that black people and women are genetically inferior. But you’re NOT allowed to argue they are NOT inferior because that’s divisive. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u...

Nearly 800 NIH grants have been terminated so far, including some focused on HIV and AIDS, trans health, and COVID-19, after researchers were told their work was no longer an agency priority. https://cbsn.ws/3YkDndI

All NIDA F31 diversity scholars officially losing their funding... I barely have words. Expected at this point but so so disappointing and unfair. We are effectively punishing some of America's best science students for telling the government they are from an underrepresented community.

I’m still stuck on the math: that’s more than five people for each pill. Does Bondi think people share ’em like some kind of group lozenge?

OK, I needed a good laugh today.

“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?” - A guy walking ahead of me with his friends on a NYC sidewalk in 2021, also my favorite overheard dialogue of the entire pandemic

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.

My mom sent me this article about how buprenorphine is under-prescribed. I'm glad that message is being transmitted widely! But I have a feeling people have hot takes about the reporting. Care to share? www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Buprenorphine can stop cravings for opioids, yet its uptake in the U.S. has stagnated.

HEY SCIENTISTS!!! Looking for a way to get involved in advocating for science on a local level? ⬇️ We're asking scientists to publish an op-ed in their local newspaper on June 16th, the birthday of Nobel-prize winning scientist Barbara McClintock ☀️ See the link below for more details!

Lots of news today - my op-ed is now out in the Albuquerque Journal. Science is for all. Let's take a stand, together! #StandUpForScience @standupforscience.bsky.social @sufsnewmexico.bsky.social @wearehighered.bsky.social @insidehighered.com @govmlg.bsky.social

Threats to federal funding have created uncertainty for the future of #science & scientific research. In this OpEd, @ninachristie.bsky.social writes about the need to stand up for science, having organized local rallies on this issue herself. Albuquerque Journal: www.abqjournal.com/opinion/arti...
