I have this conversation like once a week now and it is such a dopamine booster:
Person: Hey heard you're leaving soon! Where are you going?
Me: Oh yeah, I start at Yale in Jan! I'm very excited!
Person: Oh cool! Whose lab?
Me:😏 Mine.

I am working on updating this open fellowship spreadsheet to include more graduate student fellowships that non US citizens can apply for. Does anyone have suggestions of fellowships open to grad students who are non-US citizens? Much gratitude!

Context matters for cognition? Tell me something I don't know...

(CW: suicidality). Physicians have suicide rates 2x the general population.
I am a gay, Black physician who lives with a history of two suicide attempts.
This is my story.💖
So many thanks to @letswondermind @AshleyOerman for publishing this piece.💖

I took two weeks off between undergrad and graduate school then one week between completing my PhD and starting my postdoc.
Why?
Because I can’t afford to not work. Some of us do not have the luxury to take breaks and when we talk about mental health and well being THIS IS IT.
