Research psychologist CHOP. I research small details that have big implications in eating disorders (i.e., measurement, classification, computational mechanisms). Views are my own.

Ugh so many things I want to give a thumbs down to, not because I disagree, but because I agree and am so disheartened by

Unless (of course) you say the words “racism”, “bias”, “inequities”, “underserved”, “equality”, or you know identify any sociodemographic variable in your study let alone are specifically interested in “groups” 🫠

“ By accepting the grant award, recipients… [certify that]… They do not, and will not during the term of this financial assistance award, operate any programs that advance or promote DEI, DEIA, or discriminatory equity ideology in violation of Federal anti-discrimination laws;” This is unbelievable

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

More than half of all academics report the current EOs are impacting their productivity & >90% report low confidence in the government. Most alarming we are at greatest risk of losing scholars with minoritized identities. Great (& fast) summary of concerns in higher ed by @lluaces.bsky.social et al.

As a researcher not from a program with other eating disorder folks, the “other” place was somewhere I made so many wonderful connections, collaborations, and friends. Definitely sad to see it go and hope I can have a great community here 🤓 #academicsky
