NIH has released new terms and conditions for any newly awarded grants where recipients have to certify that they do not have any DEIA programs, and that they do not participate in boycotts of Israeli. Violations of the terms can result in cancelled grants and payback reqs. 1/

These studies will probably get cut too when findings support that:

1) a very small minority of people detransition
2) of those that do detransition, the majority do it for their safety or financial reasons
3) many "detransitioners" REtransition at some point

trans people aren't going anywhere🤷

Either the decaf coffee at #CPA2025 is lying, or I'm very excited about something but I don't know what it is.

Feels like an especially strange time to be sharing about work, but I'm super proud of @karalink.bsky.social for writing this important paper for health service psychologists on reducing stigma and enhancing care for people who use alcohol! link.springer.com/article/10.1...
