Human (trying to be better each day), academic, empty-nester, traveler of many stripes. Thoughts are my own and open to change.

It was great to share some thoughts on #mindfulness in schools with Jessie Tobin and Paul Guay for the NYKids podcast! They were wonderful interviewers, and the production is top notch.

UAlbany researchers push back on proposed federal research and development cuts

I have a few colleagues in NSF. It’s beyond terrible. Please call your elected officials, regardless of party. If they don’t know what matters to you, they won’t know what to fight for.
🧪 The NSF director is lying to you.
Let’s fact check 7 claims from yesterday’s letter to the community, while pointing out 3 critical omissions. 🧵

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.
