📢 Call for poster abstracts! The d3center invites submissions for the Conference on Intervention Optimization, May 18-20 in Bethesda, MD. Share your research in intervention optimization across health, education, engineering & more. Deadline: Oct 9. bit.ly/ioptimize26 #IOptimize26

The d3center is thrilled to co-host the first-ever Conference on Intervention Optimization! We're bringing together brilliant minds from health, education, engineering & beyond. May 18-20 in the DC area. Registration opens soon: bit.ly/ioptimize26 #IOptimize26

Grateful to be launching this project soon with a great team of collaborators and students 🤩

Join @ryanlinnbrown.bsky.social, David Creswell, and A. Janet Tomiyama on July 23 for a new webinar! Learn more about what distinguishes toxic stress from manageable challenges, how #stress manifests differently across cultures & life stages, and which interventions are backed by evidence.

At this point, I might as well -- Here's an infographic showing different ways to include age as a predictor. The top shows two extremes, just as a plain old numerical predictor (imposes linear trajectory) vs. categorical predictor (imposes nothing whatsoever). And then three solutions in between!

Making accessible data viz isn't just about compliance - it's about inclusion. Small changes, huge impact for 1.3 billion people with disabilities. @pavithraes.me‬ & @frank.computer‬ show you how in their recent talk at PyCon US. Watch the full session: → www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZMo...

Looking forward to marching tomorrow in Lansing, Michigan! #standupforscience

WHERE WILL YOU BE ON MARCH 7TH!? Head to www.standupforscience2025.org/local-event-information/ or the link in our bio to find your closest event—or add one if you're hosting one! #standupforscience2025

NIH funding slashes aren’t ‘cutting waste’ - they're cutting progress, innovation, and the livelihoods of hardworking Americans. www.freep.com/story/news/h...

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science. Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics". Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about". We need to sound the alarm. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Looks like Michigan science supporters can plan to head to Lansing on Friday, March 7 from 12-4! #standupforscience standupforscience2025.org/local-event-...

INDIANA WE NEED A LEAD!!!! #standupforscience2025 #scienceforall

Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025! Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide! #scienceforall #sciencenotsilence

📣 DC friends - please consider supporting this rally on Wednesday, February 19th!

☹️

My partner just tried to comfort me regarding my NIH K01 summary statement by sending a text saying he thinks I’m a 9 😅

To be balanced though, one of the more constructive reviewers called me "an R trailblazer" which is perhaps one of the nicest things anyone has every said to me 🥰

As a side - listing things as weaknesses w/o indicating why is ZERO helpful for career dev. candidates trying to improve a resubmission... e.g., if my Aim 2 findings don't show feasibility/acceptability, why is proposing to submit a R21 (to do intervention refinement) instead of an R01 a weakness?

Got a 1, 4, 1 for Candidate scores on my K01. Across the board reviewer 2 was nasty & clearly did not spend more than the bare minimum reading my proposal. I know it's common, but it's still so frustrating a person like this can totally tank an application 🙄

This is a great write up of some really cool work that some of my colleagues in the Center for Healthy Aging at Penn State (and beyond) recently published including @leb112358.bsky.social!

We ran out of space in the first Addiction science starter pack so heres a second one! go.bsky.app/GQ31XUx

First snow of the year in Ann Arbor! ❄️

www.science.org/content/arti... great that many kids realise that both men and women can be a scientist!

Are digital interventions for depression effective? We ran 3,638 meta-analyses on 125 RCTs (32,733 participants) to find out. Effect sizes ranged from small to medium (Hedges’ g = 0.16–0.74), with guided interventions & LMICs showing greater benefits. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Ahnalee Brincks doing a beautiful job walking through complex mediation equations in the context of SMART designs. Way to go Ahnalee!

First trip as a @UMich assistant professor! Repping the @d3_center to teach part of a workshop on adaptive interventions 🤩 🤞🤞for smooth travel

Spoiled alert! @nathanielgeiger.bsky.social made homemade egg nog as a treat for our last night of thanksgiving break!

The worst has happened 😭 She doesn’t even pretend to look remorseful!

Hot take: stove cooked pumpkin pie is better than oven baked pumpkin pie 🧡

Happy Thanksgiving from these two festive turkeys!

Today my doctor told me she didn’t think my dog was cute (she was the one who asked about him and then asked to see his picture) 🤬 This is my new standard for terrible bedside manner. Also #facts my dog is super cute!

WOW! Stunned to see a slide presented by Dr. Mark Newman showing so many just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIS) conducted here @UMich! Also exciting to see the work being done between the UMich @d3_center & School of Information to create the JustIn software #UmichMeTRIC

Dr. @drsarahsperry.bsky.social provides a great overview of considerations for designing an EMA study, and several interesting research questions that can be examined using EMA data 👍👍 #UmichMeTRIC

Dr. Sachin Kheterpal speaking about “Michigan Predictive Activity and Clinical Trajectories” Love the nod to nonlinearities in daily life processes! #UmichMeTRIC
