Look ma! I'm on the @Wikipedia change blindness page! (P.S. In case you were wondering, I did not put this there myself 😛)

@BipocHfes @HFES I would love to take part, but the link is somehow not working for me 😞

You're really dating us here Kathryn! 😂

@HFactorsPodcast Thank you! We're big fans of you all in the Riggs Lab

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

It has been one of the greatest joys working with Logan. Couldn't ask more from a PhD student 🥹. Forever grateful he picked me as an advisor, for moving universities with me, and always having unbridled optimism--even when he had pivot from his original thesis topic due to Covid

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

We have a new doctor in the house! I present to you *DOCTOR* @LoganDClark! Per usual, he was ultra prepared and had back up slides to address all and any question. Said back up slides also included a slide with just a menu that automatically jumped to various subsets of slides 🙃

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

@EmilyLTucker Thanks Emily!! 😊

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

I have not been able to catch a break recently, but historically this meant something good was on the horizon.
Well, today the something good happened...

Both my PhD students -- Lauren Horde and Nicholas Gardella -- were selected for the NSF GRFP!! 🥳🥳

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

@raedkontar @UVA_ESE @ChungSeokhyun @umichioe Congratulations all around 🥳. We're very excited to have Dr. Chung join us at UVA in the fall!

@ranjanamehta Depends on how "extra" the parents are in your area and the number of camps available. Hopefully you have chill parents and lots of camp options

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

This is my 2nd full time job every Jan now. It is insane. This year, I went to sign up for two camps on Jan 6 thinking I was on top of things to find that there were already WAITLISTS for said camps 😶

[Elliot Haspel @ehaspel]

NEW: I wrote for @TheAtlantic about the absurdity of the January summer camp scramble and what that says about the American approach to supporting families (or not).

@sirctseb Gotta raise the〽️ right

I told my 3YO that J.J. McCarthy is J.J. from Cocomelon all grown up... And now she's a Michigan football fan #GoBlue

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

@DrBrandonJPitts @timkaine @MarkWarner @HFES Thanks Brandon!

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

Great day advocating for the science of human factors on Capitol Hill. Having grown up in VA, it was especially exciting meeting staffers of senators (and former VA governors) @timkaine and @MarkWarner

Thank you @HFES for giving the Science Policy Fellows this opportunity

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

@DocRayo @The_Pigeon Thank you so much for your kind words @DocRayo and totally agree with your sentiment about what it means to be a prof 🙂

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

Did I win a research award recently? ❌ No.

Did I receive new funding as of late? ❌❌ Alas, also no.

BUT did I help my daughter win the pumpkin decorating contest at her school? Yes.

I present you the fan favorite... @The_Pigeon 🏆!

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

@lauraalbertphd @The_Pigeon Yes indeed 🙂. The candy helped with that.

[Sara Riggs @ProfSaraRiggs]

@BeingMIAkashs @The_Pigeon Thanks @BeingMIAkashs 🙂
