Proud of @natgullo.bsky.social & my grad student Carli Howe on great posters at #EDRS2025 in Newport Beach! Really inspiring mtg centered on harnessing machine learning, algorithms, & AI to improve EDs outcomes. Can’t wait to see all my EDs colleagues & friends in the Netherlands next for #ICED2026!

📣 I'm recruiting a postdoc to work on a newly-funded R01 aiming to optimize a digital intervention for #eatingdisorders and contribute to other research in this space! Remote candidates may be considered. Start spring/sum 26 (or sooner!). Pls share! wustl.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job...

HRRC’s Nathalie Gullo traces the trajectory of #conversiontherapy from its roots in psychiatry & religion to its dangerous modern resurgence targeting #LGBTQ+ youth. www.humanrightsresearch.org/post/conversion-therapy-in-the-u-s #HumanRights #LGBTQRights #TransRights #MentalHealth #Equality #HRRC

🥺 I received official notice that my NIH grant, "Early Characterization of Cognitive Status & AD Risk in African American Men," has been terminated. I have no clue how to process the news. Nonetheless, I remain committed to this line of inquiry & advancing research on Black men’s brain health.

An amazing meeting earlier this year with a wonderful foundation doing incredible work in the area of youth mental health! Very grateful for @klingensteinorg.bsky.social funding to develop and test a scalable digital tool to prevent #eatingdisorders and address comorbidities in youth!

Excited to share this! Thank you so much to Olivia, Dr. Walker, and Dr. Harrop for your support on this one! link.springer.com/epdf/10.1007...

New poll from ABC News suggests cutting and defunding medical research might be Trump's least popular policy. Encouraging that the public still sees the value of medical research and maintaining US taxpayer investment in it. #MedSky #NIH

The future of scientific research in the US is under threat due to the Trump administration’s funding cuts. In this article, HRRC contributor Nathalie Gullo explored why, despite its ethically dubious past, we must protect human subject research. www.humanrightsresearch.org/post/the-une...

"Grants are getting killed “without any scientific input anywhere. It is purely political,” said a member of a senior NIH leadership team. “The science in this country is going to be destroyed if you can change what the priorities are going to be every four years. You can’t do science that way.”"

🚨 Attention NIH & NSF grantees! AAAS is hosting a rapid response webinar this Friday, 12-1 pm ET, on responding to federal research grant terminations. NIH and NSF will be case examples. Register here: aaas.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

1/x My NIH grant that would collect data to help *prevent suicidal thoughts and behaviors* among LGBTQ+ people was terminated today, along with many other LGBTQ+ focused grants. These terminations make no sense scientifically. Here's why:

Mostly I'm living in some hybrid mash of up of fear/despair/anger/some as yet unnamed emotional state at what's happening in the US and the world, but then a scholar (or scholars) write something so powerful and moving that I am reinvigorated to hope, and to continue to resist... the essay!

The mHealth Research Core of the WashU ICTS is delighted to have my colleague Nick Jacobson of Dartmouth join us on Mon. 3/31 at 12 pm CT for a seminar on using AI & passive data to enhance digital ax and tx of mental health. Please join us! Register here: mhealth.wustl.edu/calendar_eve...

📣I am hiring! Looking to hire a research coordinator to start in my lab later this spring/early summer to coordinate a new R01 in which we are aiming to optimize a CBT-based self-guided digital intervention for eating disorders! Apply here: wustl.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/Extern... 1/n

Please please contact your reps and senators ASAP and tell them about the importance of science and the huge ramifications of these freezes.

Excited to share I've officially been awarded my first R01! We'll be spending the next 5 yrs conducting a study I'm super excited about--optimizing a self-guided digital CBT-based chatbot intervention for eating disorders for maximum effectiveness and efficiency and then aiming to disseminate! 1/n
