Congratulations to all the clinical and counseling psychology students that matched yesterday!!
A special shoutout to the students that I advise who matched:
- Cianna Piercey matched @ Brown
- Bethany (Bags) Gray matched @ Brown
- Maggie Mataczynski matched @ New Mexico VA
Big day for our group!
It is absolutely surreal to share that I matched at Brown for my clinical psychology predoctoral residency! Thrilled is an understatement. I am indebted to @noahemery.bsky.social, Hollis Karoly, Brad Conner, @jamieparnes.bsky.social & many others for their truly unwavering support along the way!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 SO SO PROUD OF YOU!!!! FANTASTIC PIC.
I am beyond thrilled to share that I matched at the Charleston Consortium Psychology Internship Program!!!!! I can’t wait to see what the next year brings me! 🤩
The pre-proof is up for my first first-author publication of graduate school! Many thanks to my co-authors for pushing this forward @ciannapiercey.bsky.social @holliskaroly.bsky.social, and cheers to contributing much needed experimental data to co-use literature 😊 doi.org/10.1016/j.dr...
if you don’t have someone physically nearby with you, this is an excellent resource

I'm very excited to announce that in January 2026 I'll be joining the Clinical Psychology faculty at UMass Amherst!
Congrats again!!!!! So stoked for you
Big thank you to @filtermag.bsky.social for covering our recent work on the use of reagent test kits and fentanyl test strips among festival attendees in Colorado!
All NIDA F31 diversity scholars officially losing their funding...
I barely have words.
Expected at this point but so so disappointing and unfair. We are effectively punishing some of America's best science students for telling the government they are from an underrepresented community.
Congrats, Noah!! So well deserved. So much gratitude for the impact you've had in shaping my career. Thank you for all you do for students!
We made a mock #cannabis dispensary for @iasatusc.bsky.social to use for research. Check out a detailed description of how we did it, including interviews w/ dispensary staff and our plan for stocking with product packaging. @uscpsychiatry.bsky.social

This is such an important project that has informed SO MUCH substance use research. Its termination is thoughtless and will only prevent us from keeping up with current trends.
So amazed by you @angelicadefalco.bsky.social 💖💖💖 ya'll better give this star a follow!!!
Out now in HRJ! People change behavior in response to drugs testing differently than expected or testing pos for fentanyl, but experience barriers to engagement w/ testing, like festival restrictions, sourcing, & social dynamics.

Stand up for Science 2025 at Colorado State University
Incredibly humbled & thrilled that the first paper from my thesis has been accepted for publication in Harm Reduction Journal 🥳 this data was collected at Sonic Bloom Music Festival back in 2023 and has been such a labor of love. Can't wait to share!
Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025!
Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide!

Somewhere in the U.S., there’s a scientist staring at their NSF/NIH grant application wondering why they bother. This post is for you. Science and society both need you. Hang in there and know there is a whole community supporting you.
Hey Jack! Welcome to bsky! I am just making the transition too. It's a lot better over here..
One of the real problems is that too many people conveniently believe the opposite of diversity is merit, and the opposite of inclusion is high standards.
Yeah, that’s just not the case.
(See: Pete Hegseth among countless others.)
Another preprint from our kratom bar field study looking at characteristics of adverse reactions to kratom and harm reduction strategies used to mitigate such reactions. Excited to present these results at the International Kratom Symposium in FL next week!

The NIH diversity supplement pages have all been pulled down. What is a diversity supplement and why should the public care? A diversity supplement is funding to help diversify the research workforce. You may be wondering, “so what?”. Let me explain. www.nigms.nih.gov/Pages/PageNo...
Big thank you to mentors Hollis Karoly and Kirsten Smith!
For my inaugural Bluesky post, I'm excited to share a preprint for our kratom field study conducted at ethnobotanical tea bars in Colorado! We looked at use patterns, benefits and adverse reactions, and subjective drug effects. osf.io/preprints/os...
Consider helping out one of my colleagues on a study about psychedelics and nitrous use. If you're in Colorado, you could also get a chance to win concert tickets!
