This was my second year taking undergrads to ABCT, and got to say- highly recommend!! It’s so fun watching them crush their presentations, attend sessions with such enthusiasm, and fall in love with science. Thanks to everyone who was so kind and supportive at the poster sessions - they loved it!

Did you catch us at #abct2025 a few weeks ago? Our lab was lucky enough to send a few members to the Annual Convention of the Association of Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies. We had a great time presenting our three projects, making new connections, and exploring New Orleans!

Shoutout to Clemson University, who supported me in bringing a small army from my research lab (the BEAM lab) to #ABCT2024 - including one of my grad students, Alexis, and 7 of my undergraduate students. Truly a cool, heartwarming, full circle moment 💛 (4/4)

Warning: 🧀 cheesy post incoming. I attended my first #ABCT way back in 2013 as a first year grad student in a masters program. My advisors at the time, Drs. Brooke Whisenhunt and Danae Hudson encouraged me to go with the lab because they thought it’d be a good learning opportunity 1/4
