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

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...
Excited to share I’ve received pilot funding through an R25 to study substance use among youth in the juvenile legal system. The JLS is a key referral source for adolescent substance use treatment, and we need to do a better job at getting youth engaged in services. Looking forward to sharing more!
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.
Who says post publication peer review can't work. The first post pub review is in on our paper. Thanks, Joann!
I use AI in my work sometimes, but the amount of resources it uses can give me pause. I imagine 30 minutes of processing uses a lot of energy and fresh water.
I'm curious whether and how you choose to use AI for various tasks is influenced by how much energy you think it will consume for them.
We did it! It took more than a day, but we went from practically nothing on paper to submitted in a month! Happy to share resources.
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!!!
Excited to share that I was elected as Member-at-Large (Early Career Psychologist) for the Society of Addiction Psychology. Looking forward to serving in this role @apadivision50.bsky.social 🎉

“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"
Like what kinda stuff are we talking about?
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.
In this beautiful, illustrated essay, Brager invites us to think about what we owe to the wildlife whose habitats we've utterly altered and to consider alternatives to killing our way out of "problem" Mute swans and other wildlife: therevelator.org/invasive-swa.... #birds #wildlife 🌎

Probably just repressed anger
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
A well-deserved fellowship for my friend @margaretcrane.bsky.social!

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?
NYT headline: “Kennedy Advises New Parents to ‘Do Your Own Research’ on Vaccines” Subheader: “In an interview with Dr. Phil, the health secretary offered false information about vaccine oversight and revealed a lack of basic understanding of new drug approvals.”
“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?”

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.
