I'm reviewing applications for the University of Washington's PhD program this fall. Applicants interested in the Clinical Psychology, Social-Personality (emphasis on personality), or Quantitative programs are welcome to apply. More information here: sites.google.com/uw.edu/radla...

Remembering all those who’ve been lost to overdose and substance use. Especially my dear friend who was gone overnight by opioids. Addiction is devastating. But there is hope, and as she would always say, Stay North. In memory of NH

Cutting Medicaid & Medicare isn’t bold. It’s cruel. Fewer people living w/ dignity, fewer lives saved, & more families left to suffer. There is nothing “beautiful” about taking care away from the sick, the elderly, the poor. There is nothing strong about leaving people behind. zurl.co/Fl1oQ

Join @ryanlinnbrown.bsky.social, David Creswell, and A. Janet Tomiyama on July 23 for a new webinar! Learn more about what distinguishes toxic stress from manageable challenges, how #stress manifests differently across cultures & life stages, and which interventions are backed by evidence.

Good morning resistance! The charge from these committee members is "illegal retaliation". 🧨 Let's plan our day together making the necessary noise we need to make to demand #Zeldin CANCELS the #EPA139 LEAVES INVESTIGATIONS & RETALIATIONS TODAY. Resist act.standupforscience.net/forms/epa-ad...

"The open science pyramid is actually a tomb" Outstanding and thoughtful post on how to actually achieve the goals of science reform (and about what those goals actually could be).

This is an incredible resource for scholars (particularly scientists) on how to navigate our present reality. READ. DOWNLOAD. PRINT. SHARE. zenodo.org/records/1569...

These are the people ensuring your water is safe & air breathable. Hundreds of #EPA professionals spoke out - worried about public safety, ignored science, and shrinking support for vulnerable communities. We stand with them. Sign here to join us ➡️zurl.co/T2a5Z zurl.co/hCozc

Hey #ClinicalPsych people…If you have even an ounce of bandwidth to spare and a desire to ~do something~, I’ve got an idea. Comment/DM/yell in my general direction!

Public universities are a gift from the American people to the American people. We're dedicated to educating our citizens and making our states and thus our country a better place for all of us.

The moral of the story: The math ain't mathin'. Trump's cuts to science spending will damage our economy, leave hundreds of thousands of people jobless, destroy the discovery pipeline, and most importantly, cost lives. But we are fighting back. Join us: www.standupforscience.net/summer-fight...

Anyone remember the plagiarism accusations they used to take down the leaders of universities? Anyone? Is this thing on?

✅ ACTION ITEM ✅ The National Science Foundation is under attack. Trump’s budget is moving to dismantle one of the great engines of U.S. innovation, education, and discovery. The fight to save NSF is on—and now there’s a new home base to join the front lines (🧵 1/3): www.savensf.com

Great thread on the importance of investing in basic and applied science. Nice approach to talking with everyone about how science works. @standupforscience.bsky.social @cdelawalla.bsky.social @mikelaritter.bsky.social

In WA state so many communities are in floodways & the process to get approval on important salmon habitat restoration can take years.   I'm introducing a bill to provide the flexibility needed to better protect & restore our ecosystems, & still uphold flood safety standards.

A kid whose parents couldn't afford school fees is now an "icon" on Time magazine's 2025 list — recognizing her work as CEO of Camfed, a charity that gives millions of girls a chance for an education.

GOOD EVENING, DORKS. Did you know you can call your senators and house rep and ask for specific grants to be restored? You can ask for specific jobs to be restored. You can ask for data to be restored. You can ask for teams tracking food safety to be restored. Do what you want with this info!

On June 16, make an impact by writing an op-ed for your hometown paper sharing your personal scientific journey, and the meaning of your work. Reaching a diverse readerhsip is how we gain support! #SciComm @sciforgood.bsky.social @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social Sign up: tinyurl.com/McClintockLe...

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM

False information that is part of a broader disinformation narrative. This is easily checked. Now the question is how widely it gets distributed without correction. I anticipate that some in right-wing media will promote Trump’s lie. I anticipate that it’ll be widely spread on social media. WTF.

A national action against the Trump administration’s policies is expected to unfold across 50 states and D.C. on Saturday. The demonstrations will range from days of service and mutual aid events to rallies and protests. Here’s what to know about why people are protesting.

Can confirm that my NSF grant "How False Beliefs Form & How to Correct Them" was cancelled today because it is "not in alignment with current NSF priorities" Shocking that understanding how people are misled by false information is now a forbidden topic. Our work will continue but at a smaller scale

Here's a specific reason how this weakens basic research. NIH explicitly encouraged basic research. But if you mention clinical intervention in your grant, it's fair game for reviewers to critique how your proposal applies to intervention, . Even if your grant really has nothing to do with it.

Philosophical implications of quantum mechanics - Feynman puts the uncertainty principle into perspective for me. In science generally, making an observation (e.g., self-report survey) affects the phenomenon (e.g., person’s thoughts, behavior, emotion). This is not unique to the social sciences

Harvard University stands to lose billions in federal funding, but the government’s actions against one of the world’s top research institutions were applied with vague accusations and no proof of specific legal violations, documents show.

People want institutions to stand up www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

Meanwhile, universities in FL are deputizing campus police to serve as ICE proxies and DeSantis formed his own DOGE to go after funding for higher ed. 🫠

I would like everyone to do this.

Another congressional recess is here — in the middle of GOP efforts to craft a massively unpopular reconciliation bill that guts Medicaid and SNAP to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Help us turn up the heat on Republicans and mobilize the public against this heinous bill: indivisible.org/muskorus

Black women are three and a half times more likely to die of pregnancy related complications than their white counterparts in the United States. Black mothers deserve better. This Black Maternal Health week, we must fight for equitable care and support for every mom in Washington.

Highly recommend this interview with Christopher Eisgruber, President of Princeton University, on why academic freedom at our higher ed institutions should concern all Americans. #AcademicSky #MomSky

Ok fine I'll quote post my critiques. This paper has a lot of strengths and I think the premise and work presented is interesting and very well done. But the authors frame it as addressing the research to practice gap without actually engaging in that literature. 1/

🧪 #ScienceSky and #AcademicSky: We’re trying to learn more about the real-life scope and impact of the Trump administration terminating NIH grants. Here's how you can help our reporting 👇

This not a victory for Trump. It is a violation of human rights. That is the correct frame. The media has got to move from the sports metaphor to a discussion of what matters in the news.

SEATTLE WASHINGTON SHOWED UP!!! ✊

A phenomenal #CPA2025 @apadivision50.bsky.social! Devastating to hear the tremendous damage inflicted by senseless HHS/NIH/FDA cuts to so many in our community, and also so nourishing to be together and support each other during these times. As promised, a new starter pack: go.bsky.app/SnnMai2
