Just sit with this for a moment. Keep in mind the momentum against trans folks, esp youth, isn’t slowing. A generation we hoped could live authentically is being forcibly stripped of their rights. Trans youth & adults cannot flee the reach of this sanctioned hatred. 🤬

So thrilled to have Jayce join us in the fall! Welcome! 🥳

Really looking forward to this tomorrow! Being an interdisciplinary researcher is so much easier when other departments are this welcoming.

Very much this. Wishing my trans family love and empowerment today and always!

Looking forward to having Jennifer Kubota visit us and speak about her exciting research!

Had a great visit! Chatted about so much interesting work from the awesome group here!

I'm not sure I can add much to the conversation right now that hasn't already been said. Instead, here are links where you can purchase tour series discs of rad women who support inclusion in disc golf:

I could go on forever about how the people in UTEP Psychology are great. If you do work in legal psych & want a job in a welcoming department in a city that’s cool (& affordable!), you should apply! + I will take you out for tacos 😊

I have a couple conferences coming up and want to talk for a second about why I'm #stillmasking indoors and specifically why I think masking is crucial for the scientific community. (1/27)

Some jerks tried to replicate one of my earlier ERP findings and failed! spl.psych.ucsb.edu/publication/jo… Oh wait... those jerks were Youngki Hong & myself :) Conducting this research has made me update my beliefs re: mere group categorization & the N170 to faces.

📣Our department is hiring for two tenure-track Assistant Professor positions - one in Behavioral Neuroscience (utep.interviewexchange.com/jobofferdetail…) and one in Legal Psychology (utep.interviewexchange.com/jobofferdetail…).

I mean, come on. Look how beautiful UTEP is. And if you think the views are stunning, check out UTEP's mission! An open access (!) R1 w/ 100% admission rate, near the top of social mobility lists, & a top Hispanic-serving university. You won't find better/more deserving students.

A letter I wrote to social psychologists (and others), on #Palestine. It's a long one; and there's still so much to say. The links and resources included are far more important than the words in between. I hope you take the time to read, listen, and share. shorturl.at/cirMU
