I'm taking a science communication course this summer and just learned that the word "jargon" comes from a French word meaning "the language and chattering of birds"🤯
Highly recommend reading The Good, The Bad, And The Jargon by @sarika008 which ends by stating that jargon is "unintelligible, unfit for humans, and best left in the trees" 💯🔥 brightthemag.com/the-good-th…

Graduation festivities with my former #HERD Lab at @ucdavis last week. Congratulations Dr. Johnson and Dr. Ugarte!!! 👩🎓🎉🍾🍻🍹💃🎊🥳 with @la_locaelisa @lisapizzaphd @rrisbud89 my matching-outfit phd advisor, and more awesome Twitterless people 🥰
Overall, this study provides valuable insight into the role culture plays in promoting PYD in Mexican-origin youth, highlighting the need to consider cultural context when designing and implementing PYD programs. #PositiveYouthDevelopment #CulturalContext #MexicanOriginYouth
I am deeply grateful to the adolescent participants of the @CFPresearch for their contributions to this work as well as the valuable guidance of my mentors and co-authors, Drs. Paul Hastings, Amanda Guyer, & Rick Robins.

Science-based tools to reduce stress:
1) In Real Time
Physiological Sigh: double-inhale (nasal), then extended exhale to lungs empty (mouth); 1-3X.
2) Raise Stress Threshold
Uncomfortable (but safe) cold exposure.
~12 min per week; 1-5min per session.

Zero draft is a critical part of the academic writing process.
But a lot of folks ignore it and run into all sorts of problems including the writer's block.
Here's what a zero draft is and why you should write one:
Excited to be attending #ISDP2022 for the first time! I’ll be presenting in poster session 2 on Thursday at 5:45pm. Please stop by to chat (Poster# P2-071) abt how adolescent psychological well-being buffers the effect of family stress on youths’ stress regulation @devpsybio ✨
Check it out - @CFPresearch is back in UC news! I'm super grateful to have opportunities to work with this data - it's intergenerational, it's biobehavioral, & it's been continuously evolving for 16 yrs and counting! ucdavis.edu/curiosity/news/c…
