Such a fun thing to see after logging back into Twitter after a 6 month hiatus! Thank you @harvardbrainsci for the feature! 🧠👩‍🔬

🤯Somehow almost made it through an entire PhD and this is my **FIRST in-person** @ABCTNOW !! Catch my talk👩‍💼(Sat 4:30-6pm) and check out my poster📊(SIG Expo, Fri 6:30-8:30pm) if you get excited learning about trauma, fear learning, and mental health! #ABCTSeattle23 #ABCT2023

#SOBP2023 crew, I'll be presenting my poster this Thursday 4/27 5:30pm, (T36) "Neural Correlates of Threat Reversal Learning in Youth Exposed to Childhood Trauma and Associations with Psychopathology." Stop by, I'd love to chat! 🧠💥#SOBP

Honored to have been selected as one of this year's travel awardees for the Wisconsin Symposium on Emotion! Was such a joy to think translationally with brilliant minds and fantastic mentors - so grateful for this opportunity 😍🙏 #AcademicTwitter #PsychTwitter

Impressed with the courage and leadership it takes to take this stand 😍

SO COOL & really highlights the importance of mechanism-focused research & treatment. IMO more focus should be on the PROCESSES underlying *transdiagnostic* clinical presentations and interventions targeting *those same processes.* Need to synchronize research & practice! 🧠

Thanks to all who made this impt work possible @gabi_hamlett, @McghieShaan, @AbbyBeech4, Phoebe the cat, and grad-school-induced delirium combined with our everlasting joie de vivre that was our inspiration, motivation, and source of creative direction. Please enjoy 💯 🤣(6/6)

Of note, kitty concurs that TJ's is overrated. Limitations include inconsistent temperature due to staggered cooking procedures, & lack of double-blind testing due to limited resources & feasibility. Future work should build upon these results to explore generalizability (5/6)

Kraft& Annie’s were a close 1st and 2nd, respectively. Annie’s organic was 3rd. TJ’s trailed behind in 4th, followed by Whole Foods truffle in 5th. TJ's was the most polarizing (does swiss cheese belong in mac ’n cheese? DEBATE); Annie’s was the most consistent crowd-pleaser(4/6)

5 brands were cooked to each proponents’ satisfaction. Some experimenters were shocked by the amount of butter that apparently is called for when you follow box recipes. Texture, flavor, creaminess/cheesiness, and nostalgia/comfort were rated and an overall score computed (3/6)

While mac ’n cheese is a universally beloved treat, opinions differ as to the most desirable brand. We sought to investigate this question with a Very Scientific(™️) taste test (2/6)

📢Logging on to proudly announce our masterpiece “Current (& Future) Grad Students Determine the Best Mac ’n Cheese Brand: An Empirical Investigation.” In classic academia fashion, this group effort has been a long time in the making! Thread below for highlights/cat pics (1/6)

Know a high schooler/undergrad interested in neuroscience? 🧠Harvard Brain Science Initiative is launching a new event series "Meet a Neuroscientist" for those outside the Harvard community. Spread the word! https://t.co/ipXBFfaiFa #AcademicTwitter #WomenInScience #blackinneuro

✅Gave my first Grand Rounds today!! So grateful for the engaging discussion 🙌 and opportunity to wear both my scientist and clinician hats, discussing translating btwn🧠research and practice at the intersection of trauma, threat learning, & intervention https://t.co/Fs9jwYWr1n

🚨 My lab is looking for a full-time research coordinator starting Jan/Feb 2022 - please share!

I truly wish that we as a field could normalize having a full, rich, vibrant life outside of our careers. Doing things you enjoy shouldn’t be seen as luxurious and indulgent — it is normal.

🚨Applying to #psych PhD programs or RA positions this cycle? Check out @Harvard's free informational workshop & mentoring event for historically minoritized folks in STEM!! Application & details: https://t.co/etSLrMH2EO @PsychChatter #phdchat #AcademicTwitter #NextGen
