We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

Wrote one of these with my wife and a postbac some years back. Lots of fun. Highly recommend the experience.

Starter packs are a great way to find people. But I followed a few tech/AI starter packs, and now have a sizeable gender skew in who I'm following.

To counteract, I started collecting this list. Who else should I be following & add? 👇 go.bsky.app/LaGDpqg

So pleased to see my paper out!

It surveys 50+ years of randomized control trials in criminal justice and shows that almost no interventions have lasting benefit -- and the ones that do don't replicate in other settings. 1/

‘It’s all gone’: CAR-T therapy forces autoimmune diseases into remission Engineered immune cells, most commonly used to treat cancers, show their power against lupus and other immune disorders. Engineered immune cells, most commonly used to treat cancers, show their power ...

They...cured lupus??? www.nature.com/articles/d41... I mean. It's a hella intense, sci-fi treatment, and we're talking only a dozen or two patients, but they have actually knocked down four different autoimmune diseases here and it...works??

Please encourage any psych, cog, and/or neuroscience undergrads wanting an intensive, immersive, supportive, and *paid* summer research experience to apply! WashU’s ENDURE program is world class, and my lab would be delighted to support a mentored research project 🙂
