Hello world! Throwing my hat into the twitter scientific arena

📢New paper on #cannabis #anxiety and #depression📢 Cannabis users show lower #fMRI reward activations in striatum, and correlates with past year cannabis use, but not other drugs! Calls into question using cannabis for mood symptoms nature.com/articles/s4139…

Honored to be a #CPDD20 travel award recipient. Instead of traveling from Tulsa to the Miami area, I will be traveling from my kitchen to my home office all day

Great new paper encouraging #neuroscientists to use Bayes factor analysis. I used them in a recent paper and can confirm they are surprisingly easy to incorporate into your own analyses right now! Quantify evidence for the null, no more p>.05! doi.org/10.1038/s41593…

🚨New paper alert🚨Amygdala reactivity is a specific and quantifiable risk factor for #cannabis use in adolescence! Happy to see this chapter from my dissertation published in Springer Nature Psychopharmacology rdcu.be/b59C3

K99/R00 grant application submitted to NIH! ✅

I only use twitter to lurk on other scientists and for self-promotion. So here's an update-- K99/R00 was scored! Though will likely need a resubmission NARSAD young investigator award just submitted! So much exciting #cannabis #science coming soon to a journal near you🧠📊

New preprint on the relationship between lifetime cannabis use and willingness to get a #COVID19 vaccine! Some exploratory evidence here showing that higher #cannabis use histories correlated with lower willingness to get a #CovidVaccine

Thinking about the desk rejection I got back in May for my paper on covid vaccine willingness. Editor said covid is too transient of a research topic and will soon be brought under control now that vaccines are available 🤯🙃

More reason to support and invest in early career investigators who will study this critically important topic

Anyone still on science twíttêr? Happy to share I made the switch to industry and am now a principle statistician/data scientist at a neuro. tech company. DMs open to chat with others in #GradSchool or #postdocs about #altac
