I am beyond honored to have been invited to give this talk at APA on Thursday. If you are attending the convention, please consider stopping by.

July was a busy research-filled month! I presented @researchmj.bsky.social @apadivision45.bsky.social conferences in Michigan on hot-off-the-press findings from our @barsstudy.bsky.social. Some photos of students who presented posters. More community-facing dissemination soon!

Thanks to @apadivision45.bsky.social for the invitation to chime in on engaging dialogs about important topics, validating how hard it can be to conduct research on these issues, and ways we should advance this science!
