Come join us for this event!!

Hope to see some of you at tomorrow's webinar. This should be a fun event to celebrate psychology month. Thanks to CPA for supporting this event. us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Coming soon. From CPA’s school psychology month (February). I’m doing a little webinar on credibility in our training and practice. More info to come.

Three papers accepted this month! Some took over 3 years!!! Yay!! 🎉🎉

When a council member says “a psychologist is someone who helps people, doesn't matter what degree you have or what level of experience you have, you are all the same” 😫😫😫

Psychologists rallied in Ottawa and Toronto against proposed cuts to our registration requirements www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/artic....

After listening to the #CPBAO council meeting today, my biggest takeway is we psychologists need to raise public awareness of what we do and how we go about diagnostic assessments!

CPA/OPA joint letter to Ontario College of Psychologists and Behavioural Analysts re: proposed regulatory changes in Ontario:

In times of crisis, we have Taylor Swift to sustain us! #Flux2025

Excited to attend my first @fluxsociety.bsky.social congress in Dublin. Looking forward to learning about cutting-edge developmental cognitive neuroscience research! #flux2025

📢 Psychologists, psychological associates, trainees, and allies: Big changes proposed by CPBAO could erode psychologist registration standards in Ontario. I’ve partnered with Dr. Jenn Bossio to launch a petition in opposition. Sign & share: chng.it/6hKSNnJnkv #onpsych #ProtectOurProfession

Excited to attend my first #OHBM2025 conference in Brisbane!!!

📢 Amazing public lecture on 23 June as part of OHBM 2025 in Brisbane. Don't forget to register!

No better place to feel inspired and realizing that big change can start with one idea!

Good reminder for all of us to keep fighting the fight!

Thank you @hbhlmcgill.bsky.social for the opportunity to discuss the work we have been doing on integrating social determinants of health in neuroscience research #HBHLSymposium2025

Ending Day 1 of the #HBHL2025 symposium with students from my lab presenting work conducted with immigrant families, parenting and neuroanatomical differences in ADHD! Special thanks to @hbhlmcgill.bsky.social for the support!

That's a wrap for Minneapolis and #SRCD2025. It was a fun few days of learning new research, seeing friends, and leaving with new ideas! They also have some great coffee shops!

Had the best time with the @heartsandmindslab.bsky.social! Leaving #SRCD2025 feeling refreshed and full of new ideas!

💡 On May 7, 2025, join us at #HBHLSymposium2025 for a panel on the Canadian Framework for Brain Health Research! Learn from leading experts studying how social determinants of health impact brain aging & development. 📚 @rpjuster.bsky.social @tasmiahai.bsky.social Register today: mcgill.ca/x/iwg

Today, we celebrate all the incredible women in STEM who are making a difference for children, youth, and pregnant people. IMPaCT is grateful for your dedication to advancing research and care! ⭐ #womeninstem

Got to pilot test some MRI sequences today. Excited to get this project started ☺️

Leaving this for the cold 😢

Scientists don't have to be in academia to make a huge impact! Check out this new resource for details, salaries, etc on how to pick a career! #psychology #PsychSky #mentalhealth #PsychSciSky #Skychiatry #Neuroskyence #neuroimaging #PsychSciSky #CogPsyc #ClinPsych www.apa.org/science/prog...

Didn't think this was going to happen so soon, but I just got invited to review my own manuscript!! #academicSky

How does one do research on a day like today?!!!

One of the benefits of being a grant reviewer is that you start empathizing with folks who have reviewed your grants! My brain hurts trying to understand these proposals. 😫😣 #AcademicSky

university finance department and their questions when it comes to reimbursing money that I already paid out of pocket 2 months ago….😫 😓

Unexpected research recognition! Always a delight to meet past mentors and lab friends! #AcademicSky

After a usually stressful week at McGill, it’s time for a bit of a break from this place!

3 grant submissions, 2 grant rejections and 1 conference. It's been a busy, busy September! #Academicsky

September means it’s grant season! Can no longer procrastinate writing those!🫣😫

I don’t understand why grant deadlines have to be right when school starts and we are in this chaos?!!

The joy 😁 when you get ethics approved after 5 months of back and forth! Yay, I will finally get to do some cool projects!

Today marks one year of my time at #McGill! I don't have much to say, apart from, let’s hope for a better Year 2!

On a day when air travels all over has been a mess, @AirCanada was not only on time but early! Except I would have loved to be stuck in Lisbon!

Current mood 😢😭

Someone on X posted they published 14 papers in their first year of TT. Another person said they had 11 papers published during their post-doc.😳 #AcademicSky

Why is it so tedious to submit expense reports?! Sigh!

Don't know how it is almost end of June already 😫

@shawpsych.bsky.social discussing about Opportunities and challenges in school psychology training and highlighting the importance of mentorship and supervision at the #CPA2024

There is no greater feeling than having two students I choose also choose to join my lab. First group of graduate students starting in Fall 2024!!! Yay 🎉🎉

I was full of self-doubt this week, and then received some awesome grant-related news! Another week in the world of a first year TT. #academicsky

First year of TT has a lot of similarities to the first year of undergrad. You are constantly lost (literally and metaphorically), yet you want to prove that you are worthy of being there! #AcademicSky

In a sea of unhappy news at McGill, the ethics committee sent me an email saying my study proposal was “incredibly well written” and that’s a win for this Friday!

First semester of teaching as a TT faculty is DONE! Now I can finally get my to-do list from September completed 😅

When students you have known for barely 2 months ask you for letter for reference. I get it, it's an annoying part of the application process. I also don't know how these letters are helpful!

Trying to pass the #EPPP while starting a new job, lab, writing grants, teaching and moving to a new city! 😣😩😓😥 I don’t recommend it! So happy to get my music playlist back to regular songs!

There is now a #school psychology feed! bsky.app/profile/did:...

So excited to have many of my favourite rockstar #adhd researchers in town! Also, I get to accept one final trainee award for presenting my dissertation research 😄👩🏽‍💻🧠 #caddra2023
