We are incredibly proud that @nmoise_md —our colleague, and the Director of the Implementation Science lab at @CBCH_Columbia—has been named an Irving Scholar. Her work and leadership have garnered well-deserved attention. This is a great cap to a big year!

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

Absolutely crucial. There are a number of formal and informal “centers” made solely of researchers on soft money, who band together to do great collaborative research and reduce each individual’s downside risk. @CBCH_Columbia is a great example.

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

. @CBCH_Columbia has been very successful at recruiting and retaining junior scientists who later got R01s—thanks to this mechanism. In fact, I’ve never heard of a diversity supplement NOT being funded. Diversity improves research, and @NIH puts $$ behind diversity goals.

For years, @Ian_Kronish has pushed our team @CBCH_Columbia to develop interventions to address these common reactions, and now he is building the infrastructure to develop and optimize interventions using the @SOBC_RCC experimental medicine approach.

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

Huge congratulations to @Ian_Kronish and @CBCH_Columbia for being awarded the @NIH #NIA Columbia Roybal Center for Fearless Behavior Change. It will support early phase pilot RCTs targeting fear-based mechanisms of behavior change. @SOBC_RCC

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

I can’t think of a more deserving recipient! Congratulations @ShechterAri! #NIHLRP @CBCH_Columbia

Long bouts of brooding about the past or fretting about the future can make us feel more stressed, which can lead to higher blood pressure, says a new study from @CBCH_Columbia funded by @nih_nhlbi https://t.co/eUWAkp4pkH @connectAPS #cardiovascular

[Biopsychosocial Science and Medicine @PsychosomMed]

@CBCH_Columbia @nih_nhlbi @connectAPS The authors are @birk_jeff, @c_talea, @edmondson_don, and Joseph Schwartz. https://t.co/eUWAkp4pkH.

Driven by “insurmountable” love for her grandparents, who “engaged in unhealthy lifestyle habits,” Andrea Duran (Ph.D. ’19) is focused on developing secondary prevention strategies to combat recurrence of heart attacks. #TCAlumni

We need your input! Nominate a health accomplishment resulting from behavioral and social sciences research, browse other comments and/or vote for your favorites. The deadline to submit input is midnight ET on July 31, 2019. #BSSRImproves #Health https://t.co/frH3Kyoo7W

Our research @CBCH_Columbia finds that 1 in 4 patients who survive acute cardiovascular events (including #SAH) are so distressed that they screen positive for #PTSD.

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

Imagine the suffering that this scientific advance could alleviate. I hope that our work @CBCH_Columbia can soon be translated into interventions with such clear impact.

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

More great research from @CBCH_Columbia scientists working with Jackson Heart. Congratulations Drs. Keith Diaz, @DaichiShimbo, Joe Schwartz, and Andrea Duran!

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

Welcome to Twitter, @ShechterAri! Ari is an outstanding, early-midcareer @CBCH_Columbia scientist, & PI of a @nih_nhlbi R01 on sleep and CVD risk in #stroke survivors.

[Don Edmondson, PhD, MPH @edmondson_don]

Excellent choice, @ColumbiaSSW! Dr. Begg is a strong leader and has been a thoughtful, engaged, and generous mentor and colleague to many at @CBCH_Columbia. Congratulations!
