“I’m here to show kids that science doesn’t stop at a microscope.” -@Williams_A_J on the importance of sharing psych science with kids.
What about the kids? How do we create and format our #SciComm for the children? In our K-12 panel, we will be engaging in conversation with experts from the local to the national level who continue to help educate the next generation of scientists 🚸

The official submission of my dissertation to the graduate school was labeled “final.final4” #igetit
Someone sent me a file named "final_draft73", I'm impressed.
Many thanks to all the people who stopped by my poster at #CDS2022! I enjoyed discussing my work and answering all your wonderful questions 👍
