Great news! Minister @FP_Champagne has announced that all scholarships and fellowships will increase on September 1, 2024. This will positively impact thousands of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars in Canada. canada.ca/en/innovation-scie…
Off to London for UCL SOM Diversity Research Day! Excited to hear others' research, as well as share some of my own.

Immensely grateful to all those who have been pushing for this. It truly takes a village!
Still processing and will have more thoughts soon! But overall this👇 is great news!

Hey, you!
Here's your reminder that it's okay to have off days. They don't make the hundreds of other days you've excelled any less meaningful and you will get through them.
Be good to yourself - off days will come, but they will go just quickly as they come in.

Individual success does not cancel collective suffering: Don't look at one Black, Brown or Indigenous Person to try and negotiate the existence of systematic barriers..

Overall, results suggest that White & Black Americans, but not Asian Americans, may be less likely to detect discrimination against Asian job applicants as compared to Black job applicants in white-collar hiring contexts. Please see the article for exploratory analyses. 12/12

I am excited to share our recent article addressing attributions to discrimination in a multiracial context. In 6 experiments we examine how the race of the target of discrimination affects judgements in an ambiguous situation. 1/12 psycnet.apa.org/record/2024-…

Check out @JulianBarling and my research on the unfair expectations we have of leaders’ mental health featured @SmithInsight
Leaders are as likely to struggle with poor #mentalhealth as the people they supervise. Yet they’re expected to act more like superheroes. Why can't we let our leaders be human? #leadership smith.queensu.ca/insight/con…
Excited to read this 😍

We wrote up our recent article showing earning more didn't protect mothers from being knocked out of employment during the pandemic.
But, it did help fathers.
Rather, access to telecommuting was key for mothers to stay employed.
