This year's #ABCT2024 is truly special. I got to cheer for nearly-Dr Jenna Sung as she accepted her Student Dissertation Award--right after I received the Dissemination and Implementation SIG Early Career Award. So, so proud of Jenna, & grateful to our stellar lab, who make our D&I work possible 💜

go.bsky.app/SsNPcGP Here is the Starter pack!!! We have over 100 spots available (and if we hit the limit of 150, I'll make a part two). PLEASE share, ask to be added, and let me know if you'd like to see anyone added.

TIL that some international governments define "youth" as individuals up to 35 years of age. Delighted to announce I'll be channeling Steve Buscemi at all my ABCT presentations this year

Shout out to all whose default mental state right now is precisely this, and you're doing the thing anyway (Mochi capturing the cultural zeitgeist as per usual)

Headed to ABCT this week? Check out some of our lab's latest work & meet many of our wonderful team members! And, join us in celebrating PhD candidate Jenna Sung, who will be accepting the Leonard Krasner Student Dissertation Award at Friday's ceremony!! 🤩 docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Logged in for the first time in months to hundreds of new follows in the past couple of days - did all the science people migrate here at once?? Anyway, here is Mochi, protecting me from working on a Sunday by comandeering the desk as her lounge chair. Good kitty.

Can't believe ABCT is next week! I'm excited to be part of the presidential panel with @jschleiderphd.bsky.social, Riana Elyse Anderson, Maggi Price, Miya Barnett, & Rob Morris. Thanks so much to @drehrenreich.bsky.social for organizing this new format to the traditional Presidential Address!

I understand that there are well meaning, thoughtful people on the APCS executive committee, but this statement is so thoroughly and deeply disappointing. This falls short. I can't say it any other way. We need a movement that seriously considers the total abolition of internship. Full stop.
