Now out in Current Directions in Psychological Science-- The Wobbly Bits of Development: Variability, Fluctuations, and Synchrony as Temporal Markers Linking Temperament and Psychopathology With @aliciavallorani.bsky.social & @kgunther.bsky.social journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... 1/2

Our best path forward? Unveiling patterns to aid advocacy and legal action! ✊💪 Keep submitting your terminated NIH grant details👇 3/🧵

🧵Yesterday, I received notice that my #NIH grant, on the social environment, lifecourse, epigenetics & #birthoutcomes in Black families, was terminated. This grant represented a critical effort to address the ⬆️ rates of maternal & infant mortality in the US, particularly among Black mothers & babies

New essay on NIH and indirect costs: goodscience.substack.com/p/indirect-c...

Short version: it's (currently) illegal for NIH to do what they did. A helpful deeper dive.

Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania has indirect rate of 70%, but they probably didn’t want to list that atop Harvard because defunding a children’s hospital might be perceived as problematic. This is devastating

APA is compiling stories of how researchers are impacted by the executive orders. Share your story here to help them advocate for you! www.votervoice.net/APAAdvocacy/...

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

This is huge. I'm not being hyperbolic. The impacts this will have on universities, medical centers, research institutions, and, overall, the US scientific enterprise that makes the US a science leader worldwide are tremendous.

Now out in Sleep Advances! We are excited about these findings and have new pilot intervention data we hope to share soon on this topic. academic.oup.com/sleepadvance...

The peer-reviewed NIAAA journal, Alcohol Research: Current Reviews, and all of the previously open access papers published in the journal have been removed from the web. arcr.niaaa.nih.gov/about-arcr

President Trump issued an executive order to find out what education funds he can legally rescind based on curriculum he doesn’t like. Existing law already answers that question —nothing.

Wow. it must feel terrible when someone takes something you made and uses it without permission or payment

running the federal govt the same way I figure out which breaker powers the garage

While President Trump illegally pauses federal funding from Congress, the Senate must not be business as usual. We do not consent to this lawless power grab.

University of Chicago is asking researchers to halt purchases, starting new experiments, and travel in light of the federal pause on grants

The best thing about teaching is learning. I love revisiting the literature in an area and realizing there is something new and interesting or even something old that I missed or overlooked. Teaching is an excellent way to make sure that you spend your whole life learning.

Sad to see webpages of NIH diversity supplements taken down. I know this was suspected to happen, but it’s heartbreaking to see. www.nature.com/articles/d41... Eg., NIMH www.nimh.nih.gov/about/organi...

I don't even know what to say. I knew this was coming, but it's still a lot to process.

Trump admin orders federal health agencies to halt communications This is an incredibly concerning turn of events for #publichealth, with more sure to come. www.axios.com/2025/01/22/t...

Excited and deeply honored to be selected for the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers from @WhiteHouse @WHOSTP! Grateful for the support from @NIMHD & @NICHD_NIH. Looking forward to building on this & making an impact! www.whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-up...

All I want for Christmas is format free manuscript submissions to all journals. If I was being greedy, also direct submit from preprint servers and never ever enter all author emails again. I’ve had too many papers sent back for formatting. Tonight it was because my abstract had subsections….

not related to my work at all but this was a damn good talk, and to be a modeling talk it was very accessible. youtu.be/OPK6GIAwVoE?...
