It's out, everyone. It's out! Julia is one of the most brilliant translational methodologists I know, and it was a real honor to work with her on this paper. Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback! (BTW, I'm a psychologist now?)

NSF just cancelled ALL grants to Harvard researchers. That’s right - physics, astronomy, bio, CAREER - ALL. Professors won’t get paid. Postdocs won’t get paid. PhD students won’t get paid. This is insane! If they can do this to Harvard, they can do this to your school.

Welp. I'm a postdoc whose NIH funding source has just been cancelled in a mass grant termination targeting Harvard. We've been using these funds to study how puberty affects the brain and adolescent mental health.
