Research is amazing. But why do we only stop at pubs and academic conferences? Why not do more? Why not actually communicate our science with the people who we are aiming to help! It can be hard to get started, so here’s some tips with @sci_simplified!
1/2 Grad students can play an active role in #scicomm efforts, but many of us don't receive training and it can feel overwhelming to know where to start. We collaborated with @JHamiPhD to generated some ideas for getting started with SciComm!

We are sad to share with you that father of cognitive behavior therapy, Dr. Aaron T. Beck, has passed away at the age of 100. Dr. Beck was a tireless advocate for evidence-based treatments for mental health, and his work touched countless lives. beckinstitute.org/draaronbec…

New study w @AllieBond12 + @BandelShelby in @JAMANetworkOpen - Those who purchased firearms during the purchasing surge are far more likely to have thought of suicide than other firearm owners and non-firearm owners, esp if they’re first time owners.
