🔔 Exercise has benefits for health, but doesn’t fit into everyone’s priorities or lifestyles. Overall movement is also good for health & we take a flexible approach to goal setting w/women ages 40-65. Our new research 👀: who sets exercise vs. overall movement goals - check it out! ⏬ #AcademicSky

Happy Tuesday! Been so busy here that I never got to share our lastest paper - it’s one I’m pretty excited about 🤓 We used daily assessments to learn about women’s use of PA skills between coaching sessions. More ⏬ & stay tuned for how we’ll use this information in our upcoming trial. #WomensHealth

It was a pleasure to mentor Kiri through her Ph.D. training. I look forward to working with her as a postdoc and then as a faculty colleague at Cooper! #ProudMentor #AcademicSky @rowanuniversity.bsky.social

Spring 2026 is full of excitement (and travel)! I’m privileged to now work w/UMichigan Roybal Center, funded by NIA, & to be at their Clinical Trial Launchpad event. This means (1) I get to see @conroylab.bsky.social & Angela P, and (2) funding for a randomized trial. More on #2 soon 🤓 #AcademicSky

Happy Wednesday, #AcademicSky! I could not be more excited about working with this fantastic group to promote #WomensHealth during midlife. I’ve wanted to set up a PAB for a while and finally got down to business last fall - our first two meetings were incredibly productive, but also restorative 🤓🙏🏻

Happy Friday, #AcademicSky! We’re winding down spring break at Rowan and I’ve been privileged to once again join our Faculty Writing Retreat (yesterday and today). Coffee, conversation, snacks, and LOTS of #acwri! Diving in for the day 🤓🤓🤓

Back on the road! In DC at the first ever HHS Conference on #WomensHealth. I’ve had great conversations about the struggles women face during midlife & ways we can facilitate support during this period - particularly support for healthy behavior. Learn more at drarigo.wordpress.com/womens-healt...

Delighted to be back at NIH for the High-Risk, High-Reward Symposium. Midway through Year 3 of my New Innovator Award - 7 studies in and we are really getting somewhere! Huge thank you to @rowanchaselab.bsky.social and our amazing Computer Science partner Dr. Andrea Lobo for making this possible 🤓

Donald Trump’s cruel and chaotic budget cuts are disrupting life-saving medical research, including work to prevent breast cancer. How is this making our country better? kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Happy Friday, #AcademicSky! Excited to share my team’s first publication & findings of the new year. I loved the process of identifying & linking themes from women’s narratives about relationships & physical activity. We share some important insights into women’s challenges during midlife ⬇️ 🤓

Happy Thursday, #AcademicSky! A lot of terribleness in the world this week - I’m grateful for a full day of #acwri at home with my kitties. May they bring you a smile. Made a lot of progress on a grant proposal & nearly there with an IRB amendment. Looking forward to more tomorrow before meetings 🤓

Good morning #AcademicSky, & welcome to 2026! Today is my first official workday of the new year. Break involved sleep, reading novels, & visiting family (nephew ⏬). I’m nowhere near ready to be back, but eager for a positive start. Goal = protect time for #acwri on priority items. Let’s do this! 🤓

2025 was a tough year in many ways. But I could not be more proud of what @rowanchaselab.bsky.social accomplished this year ⬇️ I’m particularly excited about our new Program Advisory Board and its upcoming initiatives - stay tuned for more in 2026! 🤓 #AcademicSky #YearinReview

From our team to yours, Happy Holidays! Wishing you a restful and joyous holiday season ☃️🎄

Happy Thursday! Kicked off my day of #acwri in pjs with a 5K run in the lingering snow. Managed to avoid black ice & keep warm with holiday cheer🎄Getting to like cold-weather #running! So grateful for a writing day before the break. Lots of progress to make. Who else is writing today? #AcademicSky

Looking forward to a full day of #acwri in pjs tomorrow! Working on sections of a new co-authored paper 🤓 Side note, I am completely out of the habit of posting on social media. Hard to believe, given how much I used to post, and I keep saying I’ll get back to it. But I’m VERY into the holidays 🎄🎄🎄

Happy Tuesday! I’m thoroughly enjoying a magical, unicorn day of no meetings 🤩For Day 2 of my make-up #AcWriMo ⬇️, I already made progress on a grant proposal and reviewed 2 manuscript drafts. Taking a real break for lunch 😋 then more writing. Who else is having a productive day? #AcademicSky

Happy Thanksgiving break, #AcademicSky! Hope you’re getting well-deserved rest. We were halfway through November before I realized that I made (and abandoned) #AcWriMo plans - wrote a lot, but not on what I intended to. Trying again for December. Anyone up to join an AcWriMo redo? #Acwri 

The CHASE Lab is taking a well-earned break for the Thanksgiving holiday (US). From our team to yours, Happy Thanksgiving! This year and every year, we're thankful for your support. And for lovely fall weather 🦃🍁🍂 We look forward to seeing you back here on 12/1 😊 #AcademicSky #PsycSky

After years of considering, I took the plunge to establish an advisory board for my women’s health research program (Project WHADE, for Women’s Health and Daily Experiences). We prepped for two months and held our first meeting tonight - loved every second of it. Lots more on this soon! #AcademicSky

Thank you for sharing this! If you haven’t had a chance to read this excerpt, please take a few minutes - particularly if you train others in psych, counseling, social work. It says a lot about the harm of “good” intentions in educational settings. We need to do better. #AcademicSky #PsychSky

Happy Tuesday! Current mood - thanks to a great friend for the gift 📚 Week actually starting off very well, with 2 sunny, chilly morning runs 🏃🏻‍♀️ that prepped me for productive days. (It even snowed a little on yesterday’s run 😊❄️) Polishing a grant proposal this morning, meetings later. #AcademicSky

#Menopause Awareness Month (October) has wrapped up for 2025. Here is a summary of some of our favorite resources to help women through the transition: mobile apps, websites, books, and online communities⬇️ #WomensHealth #DigitalHealth #mHealth tinyurl.com/58enjp4j

Happy Tuesday to all following #AcademicSky! My day started with kitten cuddles & the first cold-weather run of the season 🥶 Productive day for #acwri, thank goodness - still buried under many deadlines & not ending any time soon! Kittens, #running, and collabofriend support will ger me through 🫠🫩🤓

Happy Friday! Wild times with many, many deadlines (recent and upcoming), & such a pleasure to be able to share findings with the world. Particularly for projects led by students, like this new one on the problem of nomophobia (NO MObile PHOne PhoBIA) among college students ⬇️ #mHealth #CollegeHealth

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

I could not be more thrilled to share a new book by my dear friend & colleague, Jonathan Lassiter - out today! It’s an incisive first-person account of training as a psychologist, from the perspective of a Black, same-gender-loving man. Every psychologist needs to read this. #AcademicSky #PsychSky

🚨Attn #AcademicSky! @rowanchaselab.bsky.social & I are accepting applications to join us through Rowan’s Clinical Psychology Ph.D. program. Please share with strong applicants & encourage them to attend our open house 11/3 🔽: email [email protected] to register. App fee waived for attendees!

"Email has become a crucible. I can no longer say 'Attached is the draft.' I must instead write, 'Enclosed—though, of course, enclosure itself is a problematic modality—please locate a text-in-process, emergent rather than concluded.'”

Happy Tuesday! I’m up WAY too bright & early, living the true Jersey life: on NJ transit into NYC for the day. Excited to visit @nyu.edu Social Psych colloquium to talk about social comparison & health behaviors. Hoping to meet lots of great people, including @jayvanbavel.bsky.social 🤓 #AcademicSky

October is #Menopause Awareness Month! Did you know there are many ways to access menopause information & support through apps? Many of these feature videos & messaging between users. (Always check with the information with reliable sources & consult your medical provider.) #WomensHealth #mHealth

Happy Tuesday! It’s NIH grant submission day here, despite a govt shutdown (doesn’t change deadlines - no rest for the very weary). Final checks in progress, stepped away for a blood check (no rest for those on blood thinners). Looking forward to a run🏃🏻‍♀️, nap 😴, and haircut 💇‍♀️ later. #AcademicSky

Happy Monday! Today = final prep for an NIH submission (yes, during a govt shutdown) & trying to stay on top of all else in progress. It’s a challenge that requires more time for rest than I’m giving it, & I intend to crash later this week. Gotta keep fighting for work we believe in. #AcademicSky 🤓

It’s #Menopause Awareness Month & I’m so excited to share the news about our physical activity program for women ages 40-65! ⬇️ Each participant is paired w/another woman in the program for support, accountability beyond coaching sessions. Feasible, acceptable, & promising! #WomensHealth #AcademicSky
