It is the only way

I did a thing this term where I told my students they were allowed to use ChatGPT. The catch was, they had to tell me about it in a reflection when they handed in their paper. This is a thread about how it all went.

Returning from my academic twitter hiatus to (selfishly) express how appreciative I am of my academic mentor. Finding a lab where your research is encouraged and you feel validated makes the world of a difference in a time where you’re so prone to burnout.

@alex_dopp_phd @dws3665 Thank you, Alex! Would love to chat more about your experience and insights. Here’s my email: [email protected]. Looking forward to it!

For clinical psychologists who’ve made the transition from academia to industry, what do you wish you’d done sooner to better prepare for or initiate that transition? #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter

Curious to others’ thoughts on and experience with producing multiple papers from the same dataset. Without duplicating or slicing, can #research integrity be maintained? #AcademicChatter

🚨NEW HABIT ALERT🚨

Every time I find a research article that asks me to fork over $40 to read it, I audibly say “I hate you”

Me to a patient: “Poor sleep habits can worsen anxiety”
Also me: *on my phone and eating right before I get a whopping 5 hours of sleep*

Open conversations about #stipends and #funding for PhD students should be easier. I know I’m not the only one experiencing a ton of financial stress while also balancing research, seeing patients, coursework, and admin duties

Proposing we rename “fight of flight” to “battle or scaddattle”

Honored and privileged to have received one of the @TXPsychAssoc Diversity Division Student Research Awards! My imposter syndrome just shrank a little.
