The amazing Wolfgang Langhans took this of me at the #SSIB2025 nerd prom, and I couldn’t love it more!
Thanks so much for all you’ve done over the past year! #SSIB2025 was an outstanding meeting with great science and networking!
#SSIB2025 let’s rock this thing. I’ll see you on the dance floor in Philly and look forward to the most amazing eating behavior science!
Fabulous Mars lecture by Marion Hetherington @ssibsociety.bsky.social @ssib2025
Hope to see you next year in Philly!
Whooot whooot!!! Amazing talks at!
Absolutely! Hope to see you again soon. #ssib2025
And honestly I’m not sure any candidate will ever win who completely denounces Israel. That is unrealistic
This “all or nothing” attitude will lose more elections for Dems. We are more than a single issue (regardless of how important that issue is)
Purity tests got us round 2 of Trump.
Grrr! Awful
Ugh! I’m so sorry. This truly sucks,
www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/w... was such an honor to spend a bit of time with Dr. Nestle on her trip to Penn State
Honored to receive the @pennstateuniv.bsky.social Nutrition and Dietetics Outstanding Alumni Award. I got my own Nittany Lion! It was a great short trip and I got to see some of my favorite people, including @katkellerlab.bsky.social #WeAre Also, TSA was not a fan of my Nittany Lion Statue 😂
Looking forward to voting you out!
Study section today and they announced diversity fellowships are being reinstated!!!
Same. It’s so hard to figure out how to provide leadership right now
We were told by our SRO that it was down for maintenance this weekend
Yes it would be a new submission. I’m so sorry this is so stressful.
These are fellow ship proposals submitted under diversity mechanisms. Strong scientific proposals. NIH makes it impossible to shift mechanisms without a complete new submission
On study section to review NIH fellowships next week and got a message yesterday that diversity submissions under PA-23-271 were being withdrawn. Feel so terrible for these trainees
Absolutely not. Just the topping on my anxiety sundae for today
