Another great #SfNHillDay in the books! Thank you @slotkin.senate.gov , @peters.senate.gov , and @debbiedingell.house.gov —and their staff—for your strong support of steady, predictable, and robust funding for #neuroscience research. #NeuroAdvocate #SciComm

I'm trying to get together my NIH Biosketch on the new common form using #SciENcv. My bibliography is not populating at all, even though I am logged into ALL THE THINGS (ORCID, era commons, NCLB, etc). Helppppp #Academia #grants #biosketch

Curious how environmental exposures affect fear extinction recall and adolescent brain function? Join me at poster W22 during tonight’s poster session! #ACNP2026 #EnvironmentalHealth #AirPollution #Adolescence

✨ Just hit submit on my first tenure-track application this cycle! Feeling excited to officially be on the market! My work sits at the intersection of psychiatry, environmental health 🌍, and neuroscience 🧠. If you know of open positions, I’d love to connect! #Neuro #Academia

Last day of #ISESISEE2025! Make sure to stop by the last poster session at 3:30! Come discuss my prelim data from my ongoing pilot study examining #ClimateChange anxiety in Detroit emerging adults! #neuro #environmentalhealth #postdoc

Wonderful and inspiring opening remarks from Dr. C. Arden Pope III! Although many things are uncertain right now, we keep moving and keep doing the BEST science we can. #ISESISEE2025 #AirPollution #EnvironmentalHealth

Thrilled to be in Atlanta for #ISESISEE2025 conference! Looking forward to sharing ideas and learning from colleagues across environmental health and exposure science! #EnvironmentalHealth #postdoc #neuro

Thrilled to be selected for an #ACNP2025 Travel Award! Excited for my first ACNP and to connect with so many incredible scientists! 🧠✨ #neuro #postdoc #science

✈️ Last week I traveled to Washington, DC to advocate for #ScienceFunding with an incredible group of early career scientists from Wayne State and Sci-pol Detroit. Uncertainty in funding affects people, progress, and public health. We showed up to make that clear. 💪🏻👩🏻‍🔬 🧠 #ScienceAdvocacy

🚨 New paper in @npp-journal.bsky.social! We combined data from 3 studies (including an SSRI RCT) to explore how endocannabinoids relate to anxiety & treatment response in kids + teens. Team science w/ Jeanne Barcelona, Jeffrey Strawn & more! www.nature.com/articles/s41... @wsuthinklab.bsky.social

Inflammation in the brain can be beneficial or pathogenic. It varies across neurological diseases. And many new ways are emerging to modulate it An outstanding new review @science.org science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Detroit is experiencing some awful air quality this week, thanks to the Canadian wildfires. Ever wonder what those particles (PM2.5) that I study look like? This is it!! Stay indoors folks! #AirPollution #wildfires #Detroit #EnvironmentalHealth

Why is it that in #academia we constantly feel like we’re falling behind? I opened my RPPR convinced I was off track—turns out I’m exactly where I should be. Taking this small win and celebrating it. #postdoc #neuro #SmallWins

🌳🧠 Nature shapes the mind A study of 7,100+ US adolescents found that living near greenspace was linked to slower brain thinning, greater surface area, & better mental health outcomes – via changes in brain structure. 🔗 www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S000... #SciComm #Greenspace 🧪

I studied Gulf War vets’ health in grad school. The PACT Act was meant to expand care + research on toxic exposures. Now the VA is slashing positions and censoring doctors from publishing findings. This is dangerous. Guardian: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... #VeteransHealth #PACTAct

Poor air quality from pollution is a HUGE concern linked to deaths, shortened life expectancy and conditions including asthma, COPD, cancer and cardiovascular disease likely in large part to impacts on immune function. Its vital we monitor air quality so we can understand mechanisms & impacts 🧪🧵

🚨New paper out now! 🌄 We found that higher exposure to outdoor air pollution was linked to greater anxiety symptoms in adolescents and elevated levels of anti-inflammatory lipid mediators 🧪 Read more: tinyurl.com/Zundel2025 #AirPollution #EnvironmentalHealth #Neuro #Youth

Honored to hear @brainsbeesbikes.bsky.social give today’s @sfnmichigan.bsky.social keynote. She shared her journey from researcher to patient—and why listening to patients must guide our science. With NIH trials being halted, her words were a powerful reminder of what’s at stake. #ScienceHero ❤️💪🏻

Trump and Musk have eliminated virtually every federal program intended to protect our health from the ravages of climate change, yet our poll last December found that most voters want the government to do MORE, not less. @docsforclimate.bsky.social @lisapatel.bsky.social @bfrist.bsky.social

Several Members of ACNP are in Washington D.C. today to meet with elected officials including Representative Dr. Neal Dunn of Florida. This photo includes ACNP Executive Director Sarah Timm, Dr. Hilary Marusak, and Dr. Sara Nixon.

📢 Today I was supposed to be in DC, highlighting what the NSF Social, Behavioral, & Economic Sciences delivers to US taxpayers. NSF had one of the highest returns on investment (ROIs) of federal grantors 👏🏻 (1) and NSF SBE funded 63% of US social and psychological science research (2). 🧵

Research shows that adolescents are especially concerned and conscious of #climatechange, and are uniquely inspired to find solutions and participate in climate action. Learn about how climate action can impact young people in our new blog post: developingadolescent.semel.ucla.edu/blog/item/th...

We’re now learning that air pollution sneaks in to shape developing brain in children and adolescents. Our latest @hertinglab.bsky.social study looked at brain MRIs from 10,095 children and found that exposure to specific sources of PM2.5 is related to differences in gray matter morphology… (1/2)

🌎 Happy Earth Day! 🌍 This weekend, the @wsuthinklab.bsky.social team rolled up our sleeves at the @DetroitRvrfrnt Dequindre Cut cleanup—doing our part to keep Detroit beautiful! 💪🧤♻️ #EarthDay #DetroitRiverfront #DequindreCut #EnvironmentalHealth

The recognition of environmental justice within the federal government addresses a critical need backed by science. Without safeguards, our nation risks worsening environmental issues that disproportionately impact low-income communities. Learn more in UCS's Elise Tolbert's blog.

My PhD student's NSF grant was terminated today. Her dissertation investigates why air pollution monitoring, metrics, and regulations don't properly capture the harms experienced by marginalized communities--esp in the most polluted Detroit neighborhoods. She and I are happy to talk with press etc.

These injustices are felt globally & at neighborhood scales. It’s not woke, it’s evidence on the intersections of climate sources, impacts, & vulnerabilities. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Reviewer 2 Initial recommendation to the Editor: Accept in current form #Academia #writing #Reviewer2 #neuroscience #research

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Correct.

🚨🚨🚨Please repost to help me spread the word! I hoped my experience launching my lab would never be relevant for others, but I am available to share, listen, and support our colleagues who are about to start or have recently launched faculty careers during yet another unprecedented time.

Join experts and young people on April 22 from 9:00 – 10:00 a.m. PT for an #EarthDay webinar discussing how #climatechange impacts adolescent development, mental health, and well-being. Register now: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

This role could serve as a lunchpad for a PhD within my lab! Experience w/ infant data collection preferred. Experience w/ EEG or fMRI data acquisition/analysis is helpful. Interested? Submit a cover letter, CV, & contact information for 2 recommenders to [email protected]

“Bending the knee and precomplying will not stave off these attacks. Acquiescing to censorship will not stop the threats. Only engaging in collective, bold, public, strategic struggle & disruption has the potential to do so. We did not pick this fight, but this is the fight that we are in.”

Thx @daniellebeckman.bsky.social. Members of BSCs across NIH Institutes have been terminated without explanation. It has definitely caused chaos. This interference in scientific research inside and out of NIH is unprecedented and destructive, for current & future scientists, and for our health.
