Some more posters…
Chisom Obiezu-Umeh had six co-authored posters at the same time in the Global Implementation Science track!

And Allison Carroll and I presented in a panel on optimizing the speed of implementation (takeaway: sometimes a slower start helps you sprint faster later)
Chisom talking through a mixed methods poster Group shot of poster with Chisom, Sara, and Kira Panel sitting, slide says “making a swift pivot: adapting a 5-year stepped wedge design in response to emerging behavioral health priorities”

I had a rant tweet about how sexist and belittling it was when a mediocre WSJ editor told Dr. Jill Biden to drop the honorific. It went viral on twitter, instagram and FB and got picked up by the news. I went on BBC world and had my 1st scary troll - someone sent an apron to my house!
Screenshot of yahoo news article. Literally *every woman in academia who has been mansplained about her own expertise can relate to DR JILL BIDEN being called kiddo and given unsolicited advice to “drop the honorific” by a man who completely lacks the credentials and standing to address her. Do better @WSJ
