It's an exciting day when you get to update the "Experience in Higher Education" section of your CV! So thrilled to join @silbermanssw this August as an assistant professor! Can't wait to hit the ground running in East Harlem!
So pleased to see this one published online! Thank you, @JAMANetworkOpen!
This survey study found knowledge gaps among US adults regarding the legality of medical aid in dying (MAID), despite interest in its use. @Becker_TD ja.ma/3QT1j3T

I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n
I anticipate that this article will become a mainstay when working through peer review in the future🫠

The single greatest misunderstanding about science by the public is that scientists solve problems; in reality, scientists are primarily concerned with creating them.

🎉 We just hit 40 rejections (as a lab) which means time for our second #Rejection party! Scaling it up to a meal out this time 😋. Kudos for all the hard work submitting papers, applying to grants, and failing all the way! Only by trying can you success ✨️✨️ #AcademicChatter
🎊 Just had our first #Rejection Party! We collectively keep track of all our work that gets rejected (papers, grant applications...) and when we reach 20 we party to celebrate all our hard work! Featuring signature cocktails thanks to @ChrBuettner 👏

I sometimes say “statistics is violent” because it does this to the world. Reality presents itself to us in the form on the left and we turn it into “data” which is basically the form on the right.
