Folks invested in mental health research: Josh Gordon’s departure from NIMH represents a critical opportunity to make recommendations to the NIH Director regarding her next appointment. I urge all colleagues to consider writing individual or group letters. I’ve drafted one. A 🧵

I'm not doomed to have a tragic ending, and neither are you 💜 (end)

There's so much more here, but whenever I go to mainstream economics talks I'm floored by the presentation of technical data as if the right understanding of data can somehow make irrelevant the struggle for political power or discussion of fundamentally exploitative structures.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but … I’m beyond tired of hearing about all the “mental health impacts of isolation from lockdowns.”
People. The most isolating time of the whole pandemic for vulnerable people is RIGHT NOW.
So glad it's official: I'll be starting my PhD in Health Policy concentrating in Health Economics at @UCBerkeleySPH this fall! Immensely grateful for everyone who has helped get me here.

The strongest finding that came out of the review was how strongly stressful life events were associated with depression. The UN has suggested that rather than focus on chemical imbalances we should focus on power imbalances. bit.ly/3crhJz8 27/n
