So excited to “attend” the #KBSconf this week in Helsinki (yes, on Zoom 1-8 AM). Already great talks on alcohol policy globally & in countries of the Former Soviet Union specifically. Now alcohol & ED visits/alcohol-related violence. Looking forward to presenting later this week!

For the first time in such a long time, I feel intellectually ON. Not sure if it was the amazing #KBSconf, presenting work finished in a pandemic, meeting with MPH students all week, or starting my own research dear to my heart. Whatever it is, this week, I’m finally feeling it.

CONGRATULATIONS to Columbia Epidemiology doctoral student Ariana Gobaud on receiving the APHA 2021 Dr. Susan Goodwin Gerberich Student Paper Competition Award! Her paper was selected after 3-6 blinded peer reviews from reviewers in the injury field. We're so proud! #epitwitter

A new article I had the pleasure of working on with Dr. Chris Morrison (Columbia Epidemiology) and Ariana Gobaud. As the transportation landscape changes, we examine the relationship between ridesharing and alcohol-related assaults @DrugAlcoholDep authors.elsevier.com/a/1eSgb1LiD39x…

Republicans know guns are inherently dangerous. That’s why they disallowed federal funds for gun violence after a study showed guns in the home are associated with higher rates of homicide, not lower. They knew the science isn’t on their side. They are complicit.

In DC bright and early at the first National Research Conference on Firearm Injury Prevention. Really looking forward to two days filled with presentations by the leaders in this field!

This week marked the first gathering of more than 500 firearm researchers for the #2022FirearmResearchConf in Washington DC. After attending every talk and panel possible and hearing from some of the best and brightest in the field, here are my key takeaways 🧵(1/).

#Artsakh has been under a blockade by Azerbaijan for 38 days now. And yesterday,our neighbor cut off the gas & electricity supply from Armenia to #NagornoKarabakh. As a result, 120k ppl continue to face new life-threatening challenges and restrictions in their everyday lives.

ICYMI: #Artsakh has been blockaded for 38 days now. Today no gas, other days no electricity/internet, dwindling meds, food rations, and overall silence. #nagornokarabakh time.com/6246850/armeni…

In regards to Artsakh and recent statements made by world leaders — the cracks are starting to form — I think we’ll see more good news in the coming week. The key is to keep up pressure.

For 280 days Azerbaijan blockaded us, tried to starve us, did everything to ethnically cleanse us, yet the people of Artsakh endured — so now they’re just trying to kill us.
