it's letter writing season in my field. Just my opinion here, but write your recommendation letters the way you'd want to read them. I get so bored with such standard, dry letters from recommenders. It's hard work, but tell us the story behind why we should be enthusiastic about your person!

no child should have to face scary thoughts of suicide on their own. yes, it’s sad that young kids have them. But it’s our job to figure out how to help. I’ve got a few studies going to do just that. First look at this work here: news.unchealthcare.org/2025/10/unc-...

But there were no evacuation orders, even for the people living in homes along vulnerable rivers and creeks.
Few grasped what was coming. @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social w/ @cgaribay.bsky.social

it's particularly cruel to be cancelling training series grants from NIH. Those training years were some of my most uncertain, and the training grants (F, K series) provided stable funding at the time. We will be losing tremendous scholars because of this.
