Excited to share I've officially been awarded my first R01! We'll be spending the next 5 yrs conducting a study I'm super excited about--optimizing a self-guided digital CBT-based chatbot intervention for eating disorders for maximum effectiveness and efficiency and then aiming to disseminate! 1/n

Hi Bluesky 👋 It’s the first week of classes at NYU—and the first year I get to teach my new course for our MPH students, Using Evidence to Inform Decision-making. In preparing for class I was reminded of this Carl Sagan quote (1995), which feels..extra meaningful lately. Anyway, good to be here. :)
The quote: I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time --when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...
