I have an undergrad mentee seeking a postbac RA position (beginning summer of 2026) in the CT, MA, and NYC areas. Does anyone know of any labs looking for applicants? My mentee is most excited about IPV-related research but would be happy with anything trauma/substance use related! Plz share!

President Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" will jeopardize rural hospitals that depend on Medicaid to keep their doors open.
Sacrificing rural health care to give tax breaks to billionaires is blatantly unAmerican, & every Republican representing rural communities should be standing against this bill.

Beyond proud of my cohort-mates, Allegra Opiela & Emily Kenyon — who also matched at their #1 internship sites (Boston VA & Seattle VA, respectively)! Couldn’t have done it all without you two and every late night frantic text / call / Zoom we’ve ever had. Can’t wait to see what you do next!

There are many ways to engage in meaningful activism. Choosing *not* to participate can be very effective.

SIP is a two-year F31 awarded to @reina-kiefer.bsky.social by NIAAA. This project uses alcohol administration and emotion induction paradigms to investigate the effects of positive and negative emotion states on sexual assault risk perception during acute alcohol intoxication.

A special thank you to Tarana Burke, Emma Sulkowicz, Annie E. Clark, Andrea Pino, & Chanel Miller. You paved the way for survivor-activists like me to share their stories publicly.
My rape is the story of a privileged man’s shameful actions; I have nothing to hide. I will never be silenced again.
