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

➡️Our manuscript showing that blocking #apoptosis can prevent radiation-induced neurotoxicity in pediatric brain tumor patients is now published! We study how cell death is activated by DNA damage in the developing brain and what happens if you block it. aacrjournals.org/cancerres/a…

Receiving a research-focused Loan Repayment Award from #NIH was a game changer for me. Happy to share my materials with anyone in @SPPDiv54. DM or email me if you're interested in seeing them (caveat that they're 10+ years old at this point).
Any @SPPDiv54 members attending #SPPAC2023 who have gotten or are working towards student loan forgiveness? I’d LOVE to catch you at the conference and ask you a few questions! I’m trying to make sense of my options as I approach internship, postdoc, and beyond

To encourage families & communities to take an active role in protecting children from gun violence, we've joined healthcare systems nationwide in the “It Doesn’t Kill to Ask,” campaign which provides resources to help speak up about gun safety. More: ms.spr.ly/6010g6F30.
