🚩A helpful resource for planning your next clinical trial. “What if sufficient power is not possible? Do not initiate miniature versions of larger, proposed full-scale randomized trials...These effect sizes…are more likely to be extreme (high or low) and unstable."

Duke is getting the cream of the crop for its next Dean. So proud of my PhD advisor, Gary Bennett, for continuing to impress all and forge a unique path. #GoDuke

So grateful to receive funding from the Stanford Diabetes Research Center! I’ll be able to examine the feasibility and acceptability of different types of goals in a digital weight loss intervention.

I had a fun conversation with the Harvard Data Science Review podcast team about the benefits of tracking for promoting healthy changes. Thanks for inviting me!

So happy to get to collaborate to swap ideas in conducting fully remote trials!

Loved talking about optimizing behavioral interventions today with SBM members. Many great ideas for deciding which intervention components to keep or drop, and effective ways to present results from factorial trials 📊. Thanks for inviting me, OBBI_SIG!
