On the last day of class I have students do a chalk-walk to: give kudos to their peers, share their favorite activities/content, acknowledge an author we read, and remark on how they grew as a person. Such a great way to end the class, and that's a wrap on teaching! 🔚
Excited to launch a new project with @aliciacita & Mizue Aizeki to explore "ending entanglement" and immigrant wellbeing in NY! Thanks @IRP_UW and @povertyresearch for their support

before genetics, researchers used the question, "when you and your twin were children, were you as alike as two peas in a pod.." to determine if someone is a fraternal or identical twin, and EVERYONE WAS COOL WITH IT. nobody better come for my work cause y'all are wild.

New paper out with @DrMarciaTan & @njao2! In the HRS we find that White individuals who quit smoking experience declines in CRP, but Black individuals who quit smoking don't experience the same health returns of quitting. 1/2 doi.org/10.1016/j.pmedr.2022…
Every time I open my course reviews I hold my breath expecting the worst.. “inspiring and deep” + “the best ever” + “respects and values her students greatly” was some of the feedback this year 💕💕. Right when I want to quit, the students pull me back in
Spending two weeks @sunydownstate for @PrideCVD, a training program for early-career folks funded by @nih_nhlbi. Feeling both excited and terrified to work on my first R. ✨send positive vibes ✨
Catch me @ucdavis this week for the Early-Career Mentoring Institute organized by @povertyresearch @IRP_UW …so many amazing scholars and supportive mentors
It was such a treat to get a personalized address from @Chancellor_May who applauded our work, championed DEI @ucdavis, and offered some career advice. So refreshing to see committed leadership
My RA, Laura Chen, presented her poster exploring the role of midwives in reducing adverse birth outcomes, racial inequities, and state policies for midwives. Super fancy work and she’s an undergrad (!!) #PAA2022
#PAA2022 roll call 📢.. who's here in person and when are your papers/sessions so I can come support?
highlight of my week was ordering these custom gift cards for participant incentives for a lil study we're doing #AcademicTwitter
This was such a fun paper to collab on.. the team used geospatial analysis to ID counties with high % of Black, White, Latinx populations that were hardest hit by COVID & explored associations between SDOH and COVID mortality. Check out the paper jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
