📅SAVE THE DATE | May 31st 2025 We are excited to have Dr. Debora J Bell as our keynote speaker for this year's #ABCTStudentSymposium2025! Additionally, we are excited to share our mid-symposium professional development session!

Thrilled to share that starting Fall, I'll be pursuing my Clinical Psychology PhD at @loyolachicago.bsky.social under the mentorship of Colleen Conley. Looking forward to advancing research on improving the adoption & engagement of DMHIs among college students #ClinicalPsychology #PhDJourney

New story from @dangaristo.bsky.social on the NSF grad fellowship cuts: A key point: “GRFPs are one of the most cost-effective ways for NSF to give out money,” Evans says, because the outcome is a trained, promising young scientist and it’s relatively inexpensive.

Major, (+) news. The NSF GRFP is a primary mechanism by which doctoral students are able to fund their research. These students receive a barely-livable stipend to do an enormous volume of scientific work; in exchange, they earn a PhD. 1 reason why academia is actually MORE efficient $ than industry

11/12 Hence, there's circumstantial cues that GRFP awards will be announced this week, in addition to NSF officially and publicly committing to "first half of April" this year. As you can see from this thread, many people are anxiously waiting very, very closely:

Thank you all who have submitted to our Student SIG Research Symposium! We are so excited to read them.

Based on recent incidents like this one, I can't in good conscience, recommend that any (non-U.S.) prospective PhD student or Postdoc seek a position in the U.S. at this time. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/26/u...

It’s been a devastating 24 hours with 3 NIH grants terminated…all focused on the health and wellbeing of trans or intersex youth. If folks have any ideas of foundations that may be interested in supporting the completion of these projects so years of work aren’t wasted, please let me know. 🙏

psst! We are a week out! Be sure to submit your abstract by the deadline!

catch me in primetime for Nationals 2025. terrifying - this is essentially like doing an oral presentation with TT-track, full professor appointment researchers & you’re just the fresh pre-doctoral student

If you applied to a Clinical or Non-Clinical Psychology PhD this cycle, you probably saw brutal acceptance rates. But here's the thing- those numbers don’t tell the full story. Let’s break down the hidden factors behind PhD admissions. 🧵 1/3 (Acc. rate graphs on 3/3)

Late-Breaking Submissions Now Open! The field of internet interventions is evolving rapidly — and ISRII’s 13th Scientific Meeting is your chance to showcase groundbreaking research. 📍 Join us in San Diego, August 4-7, 2025! isrii.org/isrii-13th-s...

LESS THAN TWO WEEKS TO SUBMIT!

13 years ago today, I presented my first scientific poster. 2 years later, I experienced a mental health crisis. Today, I am still a scientist. My research is on youth mental health. I #standupforscience because we need to do this research, and we especially need to help our most marginalized youth.

Remember to submit for this amazing virtual conference! Kudos to @abctstudentsig.bsky.social for creating this incredible opportunity, allowing students to present, receive feedback and network, without the barrier of visas and travel costs. #ABCTStudentSymposium2025

your weekly reminder to submit your abstract to our Student SIG Symposium! 👀

Kept this close to my heart throughout my interviews. It truly takes a village! I am so thankful for my academic community 💕

Reminder for all that our Student SIG is accepting proposals for our 3rd annual symposium 💕👀

I would say, “it’s not an endorsement; it’s just what’s going to happen,” but it is, in fact, an endorsement. If we don’t stand up for academic freedom now — our collective right to study whatever we damn well feel like studying — it’s game over, whether any of us likes it or not.

KEEP CALLING IT'S WORKING

@sarajacobs.house.gov @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov I know you support rigorous, non-partisan science. As a CA constituent, UC faculty, & NIH-funded scientist whose research is directly impacted by this - please stop Congress from enabling this attack on science. LMK how I can help

use your PTO! much needed vacation to recharge me for all to come in 2025. excited for the next few weeks 💕

"Health disparities research" is a field of study where researchers look at how things like race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status can influence health outcomes. Now any gov't website about this says "page not found". This is a dystopia that I did not imagine that we'd be living through.

New paper out this week - again finding no evidence to support panic over smartphones & teens’ wellbeing. “Our findings contribute to the growing counter-narrative that technology use does not have as large of an impact on adolescents’ mental health and well-being as the public is concerned about.”

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

Just received notice that my NIH study section next week has been cancelled. It has nothing to do with DEI and will have a negative impact on critical cancer research.

If you’ve been directly impacted by a pause or cancellation of an NIH study session, we @forbes.com would like to talk to you

The Trump administration defunded medical research today. Friends in the media it’s not anymore complicated than this. Report it as such

Pasadena Humane Society: During emergencies I've seen how every room of PHS becomes an emergency boarding space and staff and volunteers work around the clock. Donate money, wet cat food, old towels and blankets, and foster animals if you can: pasadenahumane.org/eaton-canyon...

Thanks for being here 🤗

I’m going to make so much progress this year. Just watch me.

All I want for 🎄is to get accepted into a PhD program

Having a supportive supervisor makes SO MUCH difference

New CDC data again shows that “Linking smartphones and social media to youth well-being distracts us from the real difficulties faced by young people” Exactly. Excellent summary of why in the San Francisco Chronicle by Mike Males. www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

actively filling my time with self-care activities so I don’t spend my time thinking about the “what ifs-“

“According to the theory of planned behavior (Ajzen, 1991), behaviors are influenced by intentions, which are determined by three factors: attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control.” @mishliu.bsky.social @drrachelkim.bsky.social
