Cognitive psychologist at a women's college. I love running, my dog, and community theater. 😊
Cottey College is on that list with so many awesome institutions! So proud to work here and thankful for our administrative leadership! 💕
A good step. Brown, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Penn, MIT among the 150+ signatories. But Columbia, Northwestern, Hopkins, Stanford, Caltech, UC except for Riverside, among those who fail to sign.
“We must reject the coercive use of public research funding.” Over 150 college & university leaders from big and small institutions have signed a joint statement defending the right to speak “without fear of retribution, censorship, or deportation.” 🇺🇸

If you're a survivor of narcissistic abuse or bullying, yesterday's Oval Office disaster may have looked familiar or was upsetting to you. Please know that you're not alone and you saw what you saw.
We're seeing gaslighting, coercive control, and DARVO on a national stage. The patterns are clear.

I used the MO DOGE form for what it was designed for, to report waste. And our supermajority constantly overturning our ballot initiatives that passed is wasteful, full stop.

Today, Trump issued an Executive Order saying that the administration would be establishing a commission to attempt to lower the prevalence of autism and chronic health conditions. ASAN will be joining efforts to push back against its harmful ideas and policies.

Hoping that those who are waiting on study sections and research awards will have more answers soon. This could have massive effects on folks' careers if this is dragged out. Not to mention the greater effects on the general public if research can't get done.
@repdingell.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov I hope that the damage this is doing to health and science is being shared with your colleagues . This impacts everyone www.science.org/content/arti...

I have these moments i occasionally have on replay. Situations that involved social mistakes prior to my autism diagnosis. I wish I could apologize to so many people for my perceived insensitivity. I think if I had known more about myself at the time, maybe I could have made better choices. 🧵

The culture of academia breeds lateral bullying that is overlooked. I've dealt with at least two bullies. In the second case, she was removed because of student complaints. How she treated me would have been a tougher case. I was planning to leave if she had stayed.
“Women leave or consider leaving [faculty positions] because of workplace climate more often than work-life balance.” www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Gender and retention patterns among U.S. faculty
Women faculty are more likely to leave their jobs than men, most often due to workplace climate, rather than work-life balance.

That there are people who legitimately think that we just labeled flu cases as Covid cases in 2020 is boggling to me. Nevermind the fact that from 2021, flu cases rebounded and grew every subsequent year.
