If you're looking at pre-6.0 ABCD results with subcortical rs-fMRI correlations, the labels are all wrong! We reported a result as Auditory - L Putamen, but it it was actually Default Mode - L Cerebellum. docs.abcdstudy.org/latest/docum...

Shameless plug that I'm on the job market! As a postdoc at Stanford's Center on Early Childhood, I study how children navigate growing up in poverty, w/ attention to both the challenges they face & the adaptive strengths they develop. To learn more & download my CV, see www.meriahdejoseph.com

🚨UPDATE: Rümeysa Öztürk has now suffered three separate asthma attacks while in DHS custody. She has not received her required asthma medications—a violation of her fundamental right to medical care. This is cruelty, it is neglect, and it is a damning moral and legal failure.

Thank you @srcdorg.bsky.social for issuing this statement concerning Rumeysa Ozturk from Tufts University. I am hoping that other scholarly societies will provide statements. To read the statement in whole: contentsharing.net/actions/emai... #academicsky #edusky #psycscisky #devpsyc

I am calling on all #devpsyc colleagues to condemn & speak out about the abduction of Rumeysa Ozturk by the US govt on March 25, 2025. She is a developmental psychology graduate. #childpsyc #developmentalpsyc #lifespanpsyc #acadmicsky #childrenandyouth @srcdorg.bsky.social @issbd.bsky.social

Disappeared Tufts Human Dev. PhD student Rumesya Ozturk is also a graduate of Teachers College - she’s a dev. psychologist studying children’s media & prosocial development. She also bakes without recipes and binge-watches cartoons. She is our colleague & she was abducted on the street w/ our tax $.

Rumeysa Ozturk, aTufts human development PhD student, was kidnapped by ICE in broad daylight on the streets of Somerville today, presumably because of pro-Palestinian activism. No info has been shared with her attorney about her whereabouts or alleged charges. www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...
