Now online at Nature Human Behaviour: "Consumption Responses to an Unconditional Child Allowance in the U.S." We study how the 2021 CTC expansion affected family expenditures using observed (rather than reported) consumption data from 1.3 million establishments. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

For my university laptop, it dying just means I took it to a meeting longer then an hour or so. So, maybe this isn’t universally true.

The strangest case of my primary care career began with an electronic patient request. I get these a lot. 99% are med refills, forms, or questions about symptoms. This was different. My patient felt fine. But, he was worried he’d be sent to jail… 1/13

Very happy to see our new paper published in Demography, in which we show that welfare reform had plausibly causal and substantively important negative effects on the quality of emotional support in the home environments of young children. read.dukeupress.edu/demography/a...

This makes me feel better about the 5-10 meetings I wildly mischedule or miss a year because time zones remain hard for me.

Really thrilled to be able to announce that my book project, The Case for Rural America, is under contract with @uncpress.bsky.social and the Rural Studies Series! In it, I make the case for sustaining rural America, while critiquing the status quo of rural development.

There's a new Atlantic article about accidental pregnancies at age 40 & older that noted that 75% of such pregnancies are unintended, & that's just not right. It's 32%. But I 100% agree we need more attention to repro needs during perimenopause. www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/se...

Since I keep seeing this when I see other people’s peer reviews… stop giving line edits as peer reviews! That’s not the task! If you see a typo, tell them to do a proofread. I promise you, line edits are NOT the norm.

I have been informed the NIEHS payline has been moved down to the 7th percentile this year due to federal budget concerns. My recent submission was just scored at the 8th percentile. 🥴

Currently have a paper where if we followed this common rule, we would be seriously understating impacts AND inequality. It’s not a good rule.

I’ve had multiple papers rejected because it was “something we already know”. However, in all of those cases that “thing we know” is completely absent from any written record. Documenting the “obvious” in the written record is essential for advancing science.

Read this book and plan to use in my environmental health class this Spring. A great look at the successes and struggles of local organizing against environmental injustice. So many books leave students with the feeling that they can’t do anything, I’m hoping this helps increase their optimism.

Starting this Bluesky account the same week I’m starting my new gig as an Asst. Prof of Population Health at the KU Med Center. Couldn’t be more excited to finally start my new role in Kansas City.
